For players the regulations are the law effectively.

Are you really complaining that it seems unfair for "them" to use that word, yet you aren't able to? (That's in parenthesis, as I am unsure of the nature or your reasoning of separating them and us by the way, but that suggests a distinction I don't acknowledge exists).

Not complaining at all. Just pointing out that offensive (to us) isn't offensive to others. As much as we like to think we don't own the world and it's speech or langauge.

For that to apply it needs to be a racist tweet. It wasn't. Someone else decided it was. However anyone portrays this it's a crusade with an agenda, but directed in the wrong place.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

But the reverse is just because it’s okay for them it’s fine for us.

It really isn’t. We won’t agree so I’ll leave it.

We'll have to agree to disagree then, because i will never agree that tweet was a racist one by Cavani. It doesn't matter how it's dressed up.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We can definitely agree to disagree. No problem at all. Certainly not worth a spat. All good and happy new year.

Has anyone ever disagreed to disagree ?


just a thought

Only if they are both black. Otherwise it is never acceptable.

I agree with redvictor. The tweet wasn't racist, the FA just thought it was. The ignorance is on our side, not Cavani's.

I'll second that. Happy new year to yourself, and the same to everyone else on here.

Yes, agreed.

Fulham's game v Burnley called off due to more positive Covid tests in the Flum squad. Seen that from the last testing, 9 have come back positive.
