I liked it. Truthful, the bottom line, and bleak.

Or maybe the Wigan rumour was a red herring in order to a) drum up interest and b) make Milan offer more.
I'd like this lad simply because he looks (from youtube) and sounds (from people's description of him) a lot more exciting than anything else we have signed.

I feel the same, and that's enough for me to say I want the player.:icon_wink
hmmmm. Seems quite a strange forum. The post about the guy getting loads of racial abuse in England! I think of all the countries in Europe England is the one place where you would not get racism at grounds.
oh and its a bit shocking that people think that!

There is a lot of racism towards people from muslim countries, Muzzy and his brother has suffered from it, as have other players.
Really? not when he was at Leicester through surely?

But no more than what happens in Italy and Eastern Europe on a weekly basis.
not strictly racism though
What was it then?
But they wouldn't get away with now. What with the 'kick racism out of football' thing. They would be banned from the grounds. (you'd hope)

Are you being deliberately naive :icon_wink
The kick racism out of football thing started a long time before that happened.
There was also loads of abuse towards Turkey when England played them a few years ago.
Ok fair enough. But if you were to compare to other european countries we take a much harder stance.

Indeed - it was so bad it got to him and he had to be subbed.

....and also the same way round in Istanbul.
Bratislava, Madrid, just this Summer in Holland.....
The poster on that forum points out England is the worst place for it in Europe, hence why many Iranian players go to Germany - which is correct but mainly down to Germany's massive Turkish communities. But there's been more probelms in Italy and Eastern Europe.
