There's a programme on talksport now about the history of black players in the English game :ehh:




Really good, very sad at times. They did the stories of Walter Tull, Jack Leslie and Arthur Wharton really well.

I didnt realize Spurs had a 70 year year gap between having black players.

Also didn't know England started having black players represent England in the late 70s!!

The FA has to do a better job of promoting these men. Baseball does a good job remembering the likes of Jackie Robinson and Roberto Clemente.

Watching Bayern getting that work this morning was glorious:blessed:

Schalke stats so far this season:
0-2
-10 GD
Fired our coach after 2 games (why bring him back if you were gonna fire him so quickly:snoop:)
Could hire a great coach but we have no money:sadcam:

We're definitely going down this year, I've come to terms with it:mjcry::mjcry::mjcry:

And UEFA put VAR in right after this match, because no way little Citeh should get away with one.

Same VAR that allowed Spurs to beat us with a handball. I love this game.

Lol

If I remember after fat frank lampard had a 'goal' not given against Germany (only thing he done in that game) England started crying for video replays and now look where we are.. Football is a joke.

Match-fixing is even more blatant now.. Lol

Yeah they need to walk back some stuff. VAR isn't bad but taking away intention from the handball rule is going to kill the sport. Pretty much every game this weekend had some fukkery, and it's only match week 3.

Was it late 70s yeah? I know viv Anderson was the first black player to be capped. I was thinking that was 79 or 81.
