| Bailey clearly isn't popular around here (except with Leeds fans) and as a result there seems to be a lot of attempting to justify Radford's stupidity.
But does anyone else get the feeling that if the roles were reversed everyone on here would be saying how it was a well deserved red-card for a cheap-shot/sh*t-house/cowardly attack on the man on the floor...
...in fact if we're being brutally honest, perhaps if Radford was black and Bailey white a lot of those sticking up for Radford might have very different opinions...

| You've hit the nail on the head Omar.
It's rife when it comes to poor Ryan.

To be fair he makes an interesting point that probably isn't entirely untrue...

What a stupid thing to say about skin color, the only reason Bailey gets the stick because he's a cowardly thug, but as soon as i seen it i said red card for Radford, but then also Bailey should of been yellow carded for repeatly elbowing.
I would expect Radford to get a decent ban for what he did, i would expect between 3 - 5 games and bailey to get between 1- 3

Oh I'm sure that there are probably some people who it may be true for, that's an unfortunate fact of life, but the implication that it's *mostly* to do with race I find to be somewhat distasteful...
And for the record, had the roles been reversed, I would still be of the opinion that the pair of them ought to have had a minimum of 10 minutes in the bin.

I'm clearly not talking about the incident, I'm talking about the reaction on here.

No preconceived ideas clouding your judgment there then!
Hope you never get called up for jury service

I might be wrong, but I have to say that I don't think race is an issue at all (even based on your clarification).

Its nothing to do with race, Radford deserved to be sent off but Bailey should have also gone off.

Racism isn't an issue, not like it may of been a few years back.
That's why i do not think it's a issue

| What a rubbish thread. Lock it.I think Cockayne's a nob aswell as Bailey, does that mean I'm racist to whites?
Everyone hates Bailey because he's scum of the earth, black or white the way he acts is what makes him that not his color.
