| Quote: Easty "Why should we feel the need to have to show non white players. Are your part of this PC brigade that really s everybody off. No matter what colour and creed where all part of the human race. It's like when you get a survey and they ask you your ethnicity.....Why do they need to ask me my ethnicity does it matter if I'm black, Does it make the survey more useful?'"
I don't entirely agree - it's important to understand the ethnic profile of respondents in certain circumstances.
In this circumstance however, ethnicity is totally irrelevant; I'm sure if there were a racism problem in RL, Richie Mathers or Jon Wilkin would have Tweeted about it by now.

| Have not read all the post's on this thread, but why not have all the players shaking hands with each other? Would be one in the eye for the "Wendyballers"

At the end of virtually every RL match I've ever watched, the players shake hands and give each other a manly hug.

| Since 1st Feb I have driven 2248 miles, mainly along the M62, M18, M1, M606 and M621 motorways, I estimate I pass at least 20 to 30 Stobart Lorries daily, but up to now I have not seen ANY with anything remotely relating to SL. Where the hell are they.

Couldn`t give a monkeys what colour a player is,I would have a full team of blue Smurfs if they played decent rugby.'"
My nephew, who is in the navy pointed an advert out to me in a magazine, which was a recruiting advert. It showed 4 people, a black female officer, an asian male officer, a mixed race rating and a female rating. I can only assume that the navy being vastly male and white have moved into the PC world as well. I remember Arsenal getting into bother when they had the 'murial' up at the north end and not one of the thousands of faces were black or asian.
I can only assume that clubs will pick the most high profile player they have, rather than pick one to look 'PC', maybe someone should put a bid in to sign Shrek. Mind you, Stobart's would need to change the lorry colours then.

Not a bad idea seen as he's quite a fan of the game according to his twitter but I reckon it would take some serious dough to get him out of his Man U contract

| Since this thread started I have spent a minimum of 16 hours a day in the truck park of Hartshead Moor Service Station keeping a log of Stobart lorries that came through or past and am frankly horrified an appalled. Do you out of all those lorries I counted a total of 1,620 tyres, and the ratio of black tyres to white tyres was
1,620 - black
0 - white
I have written a stiff letter to Stobarts and cc'd the Commission for Racial Equality as well as Diane Abbott. I won't rest until they sort this out.

| I'm not at all sure that those are appropriate; the black bits doing all the work and driving over all the sh[ii[/it while the white bits just laze along for the ride?
