I certainly agree wholeheartedly that there is no place anywhere in society for racism. Can I just mention however, its an allegation. He has not been found guilty of anything. Last time I checked, despite the media's best attempts, this nation still goes by the innocent until guilty rule.
Also; not wishing to sound like I am having a pop at you but didn't you defend Louis Suarez, who was found guilty by the FA in his incident with Evra of making racially abusive comments. As I said there is no place for Racism in our diverse society

I agree with you, there is no place for racism, the suarez incedent between him and evra was different in a way as it was one word against another and to me i still believe what suarez said got lost in translation, i have done similar things myself but when i have been told certain things arent acceptable here i learn, as for di canio there is no denying the fact that he made nazi solute signs on numerous occasions especially in his time at lazio, another club often in trouble for racist behavior. This isn't the only reason why i don't think sunderland made the wrong decision, there are others out there who would have been a better choice i think.

based on experience, no. Based on his charisma, energy, and the fact he speaks his mind, yes.

This is what Barton said:

"This Neymar fella is massively overrated. Not in the same street as Messi or Ronaldo. I wouldn’t pay the £40-50 million there asking for Neymar. Not a chance."

That's what sparked off Thiago Silva.

based on neymar vs England, i have to say i agree with barton

Lol neymar over rated because he had 1 bad friendly against england? Neymar will be one of the worlds best players, he's not even 20 yet and has over 20 caps for Our first team! I bet half the people saying this have only seen him play in that 1 game, anybody who watches him in the Brasil Serie A, Libatadores, or the Copa Sudamerica will know what a talent he is. I don't think Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG, Would all be fighting over his signature if he was over rated..

And for Joey Barton to say this of all people! Nevermind being over rated, he's not even rated at all, all he is known for is being a complete moron who has 1 cap for england almost 10 years ago..

Sky Sources: Brian McDermott on shortlist for Leeds managers job.

I'd be happy with that. Hope he brings his drums with him.
