A couple people have labelled me and others racists in another thread just because we are not fans of Lilian Thuram. So just because I do not like Thuram and call him out time after time for his lack of leadership skills and the like, I'm a dispicable classless racist who has demonstrated his true disgusting colors several times on this forum...sorry, but no. Give me a fucking break.
This has nothing to do with skin color or nationality or whatever other supposed secondary agenda you think I have. If you believe I'm such a racist, then provide us with proper evidence or tie your fat little fingers together. I have never heard such a ludicrous claim in my life and it bugs me to have to explain myself over and over and over again because we have already been through it several times before. Anybody who has even remotely payed attention to my posts over the years knows that I have always been critical of Thuram and questioned his appointment as vice captain from day one. If Camoranesi was given the armband I would have questioned it. If Cannavaro was handed the armband I would have question it. Don't give me that crap about racism because you make yourself look like a fool.
Then some are complaining that there are racist overtures in bashing Emerson while saying thank you to Cannavaro and Zambrotta. I'm sorry but Emerson has is and always will be a mercenary and his skin color has nothing to do with it. Cannavaro has turned into a Capello fanboy as well and recently posted some disgusting remarks on his personal website which were highlighted by Mark77. The only reason why Cannavaro has not been bashed is because he's a fan favorite and afterall he lifted the World Cup for 75% of the posters on this forum. Emerson is bashed rightly so because he doesn't give a shit about Juventus and is indeed a mercenary...too bad. If this forum is so laced with racism, why hasn't there been any complaints filed before? Or better yet.. .if you think there has been years worth of racism on this forum... why haven't you brought it up before yourself?
But in any case, I have always been critical of Thuram, so those trying to say I hate said player just because he's leaving are absolute fools. I have questioned his appointment as captain several times, his leadership ability, his fight for Juventus, commitment for Juventus, and other important matter for years now. A comment such as "Juventus who" only adds to my dislike for the player, whether he is joking or not.
Forget the couple of people shit, i said it. Me, i am not intimidated by you or any other mother fooker on this forum. How you can be a moderator and start a thread anti ex juve or present juve is beyond me. I thought it was against the rules to start such a thread but with Thuram and players like him, its seems its acceptable. Anyone who says race has nothing to do with this is either an idiot or one o those people who get so uncomfortable dealing with race issues. i got no problem at all with it. What total rubbish to suggest cannavaro was spared because he just lifted the world cup and 75% are happy about him. Yes Emerson follows Capello wherever he goes but in his 2 years at the club did we not win the championship and did he not play a big part. But he has to be ridiculed because he is not the white Italian stallion and of cos with idiots like that, they wanna hide behind other reasons aside from the real motive which is clearly race. How many times on here have i seen the likes of Davids, thuram and co been called mercenaries cos they want a pay rise compared to what others are getting? what proof doyou have of Thuram being a mercenary ? So what if he does not show emotion , since when does that prove he does not care?
Players can be disliked irrespective of skin colour and i got no probs with that , its when threads are being started slating them left right and centre , thats when i have huge probs.
I mean people are giving props to Pessotto but he commited a very cowardly act and absolutely no way would i give him any props as i find trying to commit suicide beyond contempt as should everyone but you dont see me going there and belittling him or starting a thread criticising his actions.
If you are not a racist why do you feel the need to defend yourself if you have been accused in the past.
Fact is I have seen some of your posts where you have ripped apart the English, sometimes masquerading as a joke. You have problems with more African sides in world cup and you wonder why some people wonder about you.
Whateve the case you had absolutely no right or justification for starting a thread quite as disgusting as this
By the way there has been anti Trez thread in the past but no there are no racists on here
