It's only fair, as a Chelsea fan, you stick up for him. If he was a City player i'd be defending him to a certain extent.
Do you remeber him being sent off at Tottenham a couple of years ago? Watch it again and watch the reaction of his own team-mates. It makes for interesting viewing.
Are you saying that from what you've seen an summised, or what you've read from Tottenham supporters websites?
I can't find a video of the incident online.
But if Terry shouted a racist comment to King, heard by other black player of both sides, and the ref, why did NONE of them come out with a condemnation against him?
There was a lot of condemnation of Poll's performance that day. Terry slagged Poll off and said he was utterly confused as to why he was sent off. Mourinho slagged Poll off. Poll later wrote in his column that Ashley Cole and shouted at him at the end of the game that he should have been wearing a white shirt. But Graham Poll, after hearing John Terry shout racist abuse and then being questioned by half the Chelsea club decides to keep it to himself that JT is a racist?
So that's Ledley King and other Spurs players, Rio Ferdinand, Graham Poll, senior members of the FA who all know that John Terry is a racist and have heard incidents directly. And none of them feel the need to go public over it. Does that make sense to you? John "Deeply unpopular in football" Terry has scared them all into silence, it's up to the brave and impartial Spurs fans to point out his racism?
If John Terry is guilty of racist incidents he deserves to be screwed over it. I don't support that behaviour, from a Chelsea player or anyone. But he doesn't deserve to be tarnished by internet whispers. There is massive Kick Racism out of Football campaigns for ages. Rio Ferdinand demands harsher punishment for racist fans, but somehow everyone's too scared to bring down a racist England captain.
It's nonsense.
