How do you come to that conclusion?

Highlighting that the team was all white in relation to a documentary that touches on a lack of diversity (by a black female footballer with first hand knowledge) is a compeltely different context to the clickbait articles making it sound like it was an attack on poor downtrodden white people.

No you just misconstrued what she was saying because right wing media baited you in.

This.

It's like a new form of OCD at this point where a number white, black & Asian people all have to have an equal amount as each other taking part in the same thing.

Like my God things like That's So Raven on TV for example would not be allowed to be made exactly like it was in today's climate.

And going back to Football, countries can only select from a limited pool of choices, and for some countries (like Japan for example) where the country doesn't really have much choice other than to pick Asian players.

But I do agree with you Redway 100% with this post.

After reading up more on this particular incident I can see where you're coming from.

Admittedly though there are people that want to force diversity into everything even if it might make a weaker in this case Football team.

Because to me I honestly don't care if England came out with an all black team if it's producing us with good results.

Imo everyone should have an equal opportunity, but ultimately we should picking who's best for the team, and considering 85% of England is white, it is more than likely gonna mean that England is mostly a white National team.

I get that the Documentary is probably highlighting racism during Alex Scott's time in Football though, which honestly should not be happening in a Sport where everyone is meant to unite as a community, because ultimately destroys that goal.

Fact of the matter is, if you're good at football, your race wont come into it, you'll be playing. Winning is EVERYTHING.

I think that's harsh.

Blues women are **** Footballers though, they couldn't even finish above Leicester or Villa fgs, and they're much smaller teams in women's Football.
