Well that would certainly make it a clear cut case. But racism is racism, no matter what form it takes.

Not too sure what your point is here? Are you saying, because it seems to be less racist, it's OK?

i couldn't be less bothered about this if you paid me.

If you are going on what I have written, not necessarily. Stop trying to make yourself into a victim, in order to give you an excuse to whinge like feck

No it's just not racist in anyway shape or form.

Are you speaking for yourself or everyone?

Given what proof?

And surely racism is more along the lines of not wanting (for e.g.) Michael Lawrence to play for England? Quick someone write an essay in the Wembley match programme: Postmodern relativism and the construct of nation and identity.

I'm saying it is understandable (and not strictly that "bad"icon_wink.gif that someone may take the view that inclusiveness to the degree of pandering to someone's subjective identity should overturn what is empirical about where someone is actually from.

Certainly not anything I've seen on here.

Tbh were all kind of just hitting the same arguments again

Personally at least I just think it's embarrasing that after all talk of franchise system to develop and bring through British youth through academy to international (a few lads are ready now) that we've still gone asking numerous players to switch main allegiance for us.

While taking an idealistic view, yes. That view could be held for may reasons, including racism. I have never said that any poster on here has taken a racist view. This is something the brainless on here have failed to see, for some reason. Probably because they just want a little rant, maybe.

That's okay. You did most of the research.
