Anton Ferdinand documentary

[WindyNook]

'I've carried the burden for nine years'

Anton Ferdinand speaks about his experiences in a new BBC One documentary, Anton Ferdinand: Football, Racism And Me.

www.bbc.co.uk

Looking forward to this on Monday 30th November
Not because it's John Terry, as it says in the article This is bigger than Anti v John
But it's interesting how Anton felt when he was interviewed by the FA he said he felt like a suspect rather than the victim..
Before that incident he had played over 200 top flight games after he only played anther 10.
His manager at QPR at the time Mr N Warnock said he was not the same player afterwards.
Anton say he is speaking out for the next generation good on her son

Why did he then move to Turkey one of the most openly racist countries in Europe as many black English footballers publicly stated this on their return.

That’s what I don’t get.

'If Ozil wants to talk about racism, he should look at Turkey'

Mesut Ozil sensationally quit the German national football team last month, saying he was subject to “racism and disrespect” because of his Turkish roots. But Deniz Naki tells Euronews that if Ozil really has an issue with racism, he should look at Turkey.

Why should anyone not move somewhere to further their career because of racists though?

But why would you to flee racism to move somewhere that isn’t even trying to fix it.

 

[JM14]

Yeah I get that but at the same time why shouldnt he? In the 21st century no one should have to turn down a move for fear of racial abuse

 

[ForssAwakens]

It was racism on the pitch that caused his problems, not the racism of.

i think bringing up that he moved to Turley in his career is deflecting from what Anton endured.

Terry was found not guilt, get over it, pathetic attention seeking, must be short of cash, another person bringing up the past to be relevant, what happen was wrong, BBC left wing propaganda again more political correct tv madness glad I've ditched my Licence fee.

Has he suggested he left England to flee racism?

Wish you'd ditch your membership of this forum

John which part of his quote "this isn't about Anton v John" do you not get.
But he is using it as an example of the systemic racism in the sporting arena.
Or are you going to say that doesn't exist?
But as to the specific case
Courts in England need a high level of evidence to come to a guilty verdict, quite rightly so.
A hearing by the FA does not and can weigh up the evidence it received. I like to think that the punishment that John Terry received was indicative of the events that took place

Troll. You shame the player's name you are not fit to utter.

 

[Steer]

Terry was banned and fined, and never played for England again, and was forced to apologise for his actions. So, not exactly the outcome of someone "innocent", notwithstanding the final outcome of the lawcase.

Antons Ferdinads side of the story is interesting and deserves to be told.

It's a shame that such abhorrant trolls exist on here. If you don't want to know his side of the stroy, then no one is forcing you to watch this. But perhaps if you did, you would actually learn something from it?

You have to be very careful here, he was found not guilty and I doubt Anton is arguing anything else.
If you watch the tape Terry definitely says I did not call you xxxxxx.
Still one horrible family.

Anton's Big Bro. once referred to Ashley Cole as being like a Choc. Ice, saying he was dark on the outside and white on the inside. Are we to take it that depending on who you are that kind of talk is acceptable ?

 

[ForssAwakens]

BJH could be looking a ban himself

What’s that got to do with anton?

 

[Otto42]

Am looking forward to hearing Anton's story, never heard much from him before. However, brings me out in a cold sweat remembering when the media were obsessed with Wags, JT, Stevie G, Becks and Rio. Not much better now, but certainly better.
