    Sorry if already posted but im quite shocked at the racism shown by the 3 U18s at Portsmouth. They have now been released from the club after the investigation concluded.

    What i struggle to understand is the context of it being 3 people with shocking terminology and comments.

    Surely with racism having such a high profile in football it wouldn’t be something i would expect. Couple that with my belief that younger generation would be better educated on the racism topic.

    shows there is a long long way to go

    I’m not sure if they’ll crack the Top 10 with that title for a single.

    The racism was on a WhatsApp group wasn’t it? Probably kids showing how edgy they are in what they thought was a private group. They’ve paid the ultimate price for stupidity.

    It beggars belief that some people are more incensed at the peaceful gesture of taking the knee ?
    They boo and jeer the taking of the knee whilst these incidents pass them by ,
    IMO only the racists are booing the knee because it is totally opposite to what they believe.

    I've been awaiting what Kick it Out think. They are all over things usually. I'm not a fan of the kick it out org, they overload on many issues that seem minor and then things like this they are silent unless ive missed it.

    Or maybe they're racist and have got the punishment their views deserve?

    It wasn’t stupid it was racist and the ‘private group’ had black players in it.
