The Cricket thread

[Milltown Row2]

Jaysis Milltown have ya read the whole background to it or are ya just commenting on the titbits in the media...

I'd have been uneasy with the witch-hunt on the people Rafiq named even before the revelation today but whether Rafiq)Vaughan/Bumble/Ballance or even the lad with the dog are racist doesn't excuse Yorkshire in any shape or form

Yes and Yorkshire cricket club is completely in the wrong, and those that have been complicit should and have lost their positions within the club, obviously it's across the other organisations also, but coming on and giving off about racists while (I haven't read his posts btw) posting racist remarks (apparently) on social media. Clampit

yorkshire cricket and nordie fa, a great bunch of lads 

blackface now ffs

[tiempo]

The blackface thing is a bit of a melt.

Thinking Liam Williams of Wales rugby, planned to dress up as Wilfred Bony on a night out/halloween, Bony was playing for Swansea at the time, asked Bony if he was OK with it, Bony said yes, when the pictures surfaced he was lined up for crimes against human progress but who genuinely gets offended by this?

Give the photo a quick google. Are we also dealing with hate towards gladiators, hippies and cows in this one episode? Does that not mean halloween or any sort of fancy dress party are just hate orgies?

Black facing, on the face of it is probably wrong and I've mentioned it before, I did it for a halloween party in nightclub in Belfast and it was my mate who is biracial, who put the colouring on my face!!!

Our outfits won us £250 in 1994, was a good night in fairness! Was never a word said at the time or since, that's not to say it didn't offend anyone

When I think about it I must ask my Ma where she got the paint as I'm pretty sure there was no such thing as body paint in N. Antrim in 1985. 

Youll be grand as long as your mates don't have any old Nokia N95s lying around with offensive photos on them!

Thats it in a nutshell. Their batting is so fragile it's hard to see anything but 5-0

[Boycey]

It was a bit like that alright but in fairness to them they must be the most under prepared team in Ashes history... Test cricket becoming an after thought.

BTs coverage terrible...
