No Terry i doubt  i dont think the furore in relation to Black versus White issue will ever die down or even go away as long we have people  taking  remarks made in playground ,playing fields ,work places and other areas, out side and fielding them to the Medium of the Television and what i title The Gutter Press. Here we may now have a situation where it isnt bad results that brings the Manager of the England to the verge of Resignation or the Sack., it will be one Family with a grudge against another person who replaced one of that same family as the England Football Team Captain.  [/I][/QUOTE]



Sorry to disappoint you Maurice but it wasn’t Anton Ferdinand who reported John Terry, it was a member of the public who was a spectator at the football match who heard what he said, so i’m afraid your idea of the grudge goes out the window.

[I] Last edited by Maureen Cartwright nee Lawrence[/I][/I][/QUOTE.Sorry Maureen maybe it was a member of the Public who brought the com plaint but it wasnt heard it was cought on Phone Camera and i suspect it was shown to Anton Ferdinand who then egged that person to forward it on . No one has come up with the name of this person or what Colour they are , i still stick to my views that the Ferdinands ae the main cause of this issue and even if John Terry is  found Guilty that family will become Piriahs in the football world :devil: :devil:
