I hate racism but I also hate stock tokenism. People are fundamentally people.

Redway 14-07-2022 08:20 PM

Why are some people so obsessed with making everything about skin colour?

bots 14-07-2022 08:24 PM

i think its not the job of the bbc to be making that observation. Stick to the sport

Crimson Dynamo 14-07-2022 08:40 PM

7 of rangers first team are poc

scotland is 99.9% white

UserSince2005 14-07-2022 09:23 PM

A few more white and we might have won the penalty shoot out. Let’s be real.

It’s a pity this thread had to be made by the person it was made by but bait or no bait he has a point this particular time around.

Is there a full clip of this instead of a cherry picked 20 seconds?? sounds like it was leading in to a segment regarding the matter rather than an off the cuff remark...

Jordan. 15-07-2022 02:01 AM

Looks like it was a promotion for this documentary


Redway 15-07-2022 05:06 AM

Where have you been all these years?

Redway 15-07-2022 05:07 AM

Or did you legit. return a while back and I just didn’t notice?

Crimson Dynamo 15-07-2022 07:03 AM

so we have to watch a whole ("one" woman's opinion) documentary before we can decode what this woman has said?

sure

bots 15-07-2022 07:09 AM

i don't see how any further context is necessary in this case. She made an observation. If i said there are 2 pigeons on my roof, what further context is needed to explain the occurrence

Nicky91 15-07-2022 07:16 AM

LT you don't even watch women's football, so why create this thread?

the context would explain why she was on the topic but not the observation made and made as a criticism as if racism was wholly responsible

is it in the football section?

Cherie 15-07-2022 07:52 AM

whatever the context, the bottom line is she said the words ......'too white'

some people seem quite happy to have double standards though

our team has a strong ethnic variety though also among ''white'' players

two of our strongest talents as well

Victoria Pelova = bulgarian descent

Damaris Egurrola = half dutch, born in america, half basque




the POC in that photo isn't with the squad currently, van der sande, but more because she is not good enough quality for his desired match tactics according to Parsons (hypocrite when selecting Beerensteyn whom is like a cement brick and zero technical skill, don't know how she ever played for top team Juventus and now signed with Chelsea)

Nicky91 15-07-2022 08:14 AM

there isn't a thing as ''too white'' or ''too black''


players get selected for national teams if they fit in well into the managers preferred squad tactics



but sadly some get preferences based on superstar appeal no matter what form they are in (at men Lionel Messi whom is crap for argentina but yeah name advantages :facepalm: and here at womens Lieke Martens even in this horrendous current form still makes starting 11s because she is the female messi or ronaldo :facepalm:)


one of our PSV talents, Esmee Brugts made her debut actually coming in for Martens in 80th minute against Portugal, but would've loved it more if she got in for Martens from begin of second half

https://images0.persgroep.net/rcs/zU...7f&quality=0.8

one of our strongest assets of last eredivisie season (which says something about so called veterans Sari van Veenendaal whom absolutely was a horror to watch in goal, no loss now at euros for sure lol)

She never said "too white" at all, she said the team was all white.
