I'll grant you Jenas, but Scott was decent. I appreciate she's a "bird", but judge her on what she says, not her gender.

She's been decent.Talks a lot of sense. Jenas is crap though.

Ha!! There was a time we'd have lined up to drive him up there. He's looking a cracking player now. Great with the ball too, bar one rush of blood today he was pretty much flawless.

Poch won't go there. Him to Real Madrid next is the safest bet in town.

Yep. There was one lovely passage of play when he showed a turn of pace, came forward with the ball and played a lovely pass forward. He's a player.

Lovely bit of play from Diallo then. Turn of pace and great ball forward.

I'd bring N'Lundulu on and give Ings a rest.

Is it me or is our set up a bit different. Ward Prowse is often at right back. KWP very high up the pitch. Bertrand stepping into midfield on the other side.

You're wrong, as others have said. But even if you were right, it's still completely irrelevant to the fact that Nissan may well go as a result of a WTO brexit.

Yep. He offers options / competition up front and on the wings. Whoever starts ahead of him knows they've got to perform to keep the shirt. We've not had that for a while. He's been a good signing.

Completely irrelevant to the real possibility of Nissan Sunderland closing to leaving on wto terms, and a trade deal with Vietnam contributing nothing of note to our economy.

Just noticed that Tella has scored 4. Blimey. Wander if he's coming off the wing as per the graphic, or up top with Johnson out wide. Either way, cracking effort.

He is a CB who can play RB.

I'm not sure tariff free lemongrass will be any consolation to the 7000 Nissan employees.

FFS. The black man amongst a group of non black men, gets identified as a black man, and we get this nonsense. Calling John Barnes as witness for the defence.

There isn't a "typical saints thing", just wet fanny fans flapping about a game we could lose if we have an off day. We'll win. The front 4 has real competition for places and we'll score a few.

Yep, he's got hero status here, and guaranteed starts. He won't have that at a club playing European football...look at Bale at Spurs, Cavani at Man Utd, Giroud at Chelsea. He's had to sit out a big chunk of his career, and I'd be surprised if he'd want to spend the rest of it as a bit part player. With that said, I'm in the let him go if he wants to go camp.

What and where do you see the problems? Personally, I'd rather focus on footy related race issues as this is a footy forum. If you are white, how is your opinion formed if it is not from media / social media?

Don't label someone who is unwell as a tool. We had this ignorance on the Maradona thread, and have it again. People don't choose to be an addict. They drink as other people do, but unlike other people, they find that they can't stop. They don't choose for that to happen. They're wired differently and can longer choose whether to drink or not. I've met loads of addicts who get into cocaine as their bodies need more alcohol and the coke helps them keep going. It's a sad situation. Don't criticise what you don't understand.

That's the thing though, we do. We're judged on our words, so we have to decide whether they'll likely to cause offence. Where there is a problem is that it's hard to know what is offensive this week, and as per the PSG issue this week, people take offence when they plainly shouldn't.

This issue wasn't about subtlety of language. It was because a bloke identified the only black bloke amongst a group of people as the black guy. It was a trivial thing, and I suspect that the woke brigade on here would never have piped down had John Barnes not stated the bloody obvious.

Number? Name on their shirt? A bit different to the only black guy on a group, who's name wouldn't have been known to him, and who's must obvious distinguishing feature is his skin colour.
