Naked Mole Rat 437 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Hardly relevant, though, to be honest. He didn't have to be racist to call Ferdinand a black cunt. He just had to be very unprofessional. If he had, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 Hate the way people are turning against one of if not the greatest captain to ever grace the Stamford Bridge turf. Obviously JT has made mistakes such as this and the Wayne Bridge thing but we must not forget that this is a man in the media spotlight 24/7. Simple allegations can be blown completely out of proportion by the media and they will always pick up on the slightest thing that he has ever done and find a way to slaughter him for it. I am sure everybody on this forum has made mistakes in their life but we are at an advantage that we can live peacefully and not have journalists outside our house all the time.So people against John Terry just remember that, although he has made mistakes, he is still a tremendous player who wears that blue shirt with more pride than anyone else on that pitch. If we are going to remember him in 30 years time as 'that bloke who slept with another players wife and racially abused Anton Ferdinand' then that shows what negative thinkers we are today. In 30 years focus on the fact that this bloke is a youth academy product who has won 3 league titles, countless cups and is the most successful captain ever in 106 years of Chelsea Football Club.Absolutely.But he's undoing all of that with these antics. Whether it was a simple mistake, a moment of naivety or him saying what he was really thinking, he should be reprimanded. It doesn't mean we have to hang him out to dry, but I certainly won't show the same respect and admiration towards him in future. I'll back him as I back our squad and the management, but he has gone down in my estimations greatly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 We should wait first and see if he is actually charged of anything... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I agree there Nemanja, innocent until proven guilty, of course. However my point are his alleged actions are bad for the image of the club - we're hated enough as it is. I am not thinking of what other fans here, but what other players think. Would you want to come and play for a team captained by an adulterous racist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you want to come and play for a team captained by an adulterous racist?I know. First JT's incident, then fans chanting to Ferdinand and then that cunt who called Sturridge monkey or something. It is absolutely disgraceful and terrible for the image of the club which is already low enough, but it is also terrible seeing some people here swear at Terry and throw away all what he's done for the club in the blink of an eye while he's not even charged of anything.I do hope all this ends fast, it's drawing unnecessary attention from the players and from the fans while we have a tough season ahead with a leaky defense which leader is under tremendous pressure right now.

francozola 2,040 Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 If he has a bad game today - which is very possible if he's up against Suarez - then everyone's going to be all "JT affected by racism claims" and all that crap which will bring even more pressure to AVB and the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YankinBlue42 72 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I honestly can't believe this is still going on. How the police and the FA can let this drag on for so long when someone's reputation is at stake is a fucking travesty. All the makings of a PR witch hunt. Let the accusations boil in the media for awhile until it seeps into the public's mind that he's guilty, and then, weeks later, come out and say "no charges are being filed" when the damage has already been done.

Madmax 9,219 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Hammersmith and Fulham police have interviewed John Terry under caution as part of their investigation into allegations that he racially abused Anton Ferdinand during Chelsea's defeat by Queens Park Rangers last month.A statement was taken from Terry in Surrey last Friday, 24 hours before Chelsea's home game against Wolves, as the police continue to compile accounts of the incident which took place late in the derby at Loftus Road on 23 October. It remains to be seen whether charges are brought against the 30-year-old England captain, who is also the subject of inquiries by the Football Association into the flashpoint.Terry denies racially abusing the QPR defender but has already admitted using offensive words, claiming he had shouted them as a denial having been under the assumption that Ferdinand had accused him of making a racist remark. He welcomed the announcement of the FA's inquiry as an opportunity to clear his name, only for the Metropolitan police to follow suit as a result of an emailed complaint from a member of the public.As part of the inquiry, players at Chelsea and QPR have been interviewed, with confirmation now that Terry has also been contacted. A 30-year-old man was interviewed under caution on Friday 25 November, said a Scotland Yard spokesman. He was not arrested. The Crown Prosecution Service is understood to have received files on the investigation from the police, but more are expected to be lodged before any decision is made as to whether charges are to be pressed.From The Guardian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve5221 91 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 This seems to have fallen well, well off the radar in the gutter press due to the Gary Speed situation.It took a man's life, for them to drop it and move on....bastards..

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted November 29, 2011 Author Share Posted November 29, 2011 I'm still failing to see the point of involving the police? Why wasn't Suaréz interviewed by them too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francozola 2,040 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Cuz someone (QPR fan obviously) made a complaint to the police so once they receive a complaint they have no choice but to investigate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laylabelle 9,534 Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 The FA investigation cant be completed until the outcome of the Police investigation is finished blahh blahh....forgot about this whole thing to be honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Call me naive, but both Terry and Perroncel deny that the affair ever happened. And you know the English media is full of shit..I guarantee you that when Terry retires, he'll release an autobiography fervently denying all of these allegations against him.Back John Terry.
