I think it’s time these walk offs happen because clearly UEFA and national associations have failed to deal with racism in Europe . Even a number of EPL managers including Klopp and Guardiola are behind the idea .

Jurgen is actually not in favour, he said why should one or two idiots ruin it, means they have won. He did say if the whole stand is racially abusing someone then he would instruct a walk off. He also said he didn’t hear anything in the England game.

The incident in Montenegro was clearly more than a few idiots and clearly the players have had enough. No one in any workplace should have to tolerate what happened to some of the England players in Montenegro . The players and mangers have become frustrated and maybe the next time it happens on this scale the players will walk off.

I watched it .

It certainly heading towards a player walk off if large scale racial abuse occurs again.

Danny Rose had spoken openly of his disgust on racsim and how weak football authorities have been in dealing with it.

i find it amazing (but pleased) you complain about racism yet you read and always quote the far right Daily Mail - they slaughter Raheem and he even had a go at them.
Far right :lol:

Having a go at someone who is black doesn't make it automatically racist.

If they walk off then there needs to be proof that the racism has actually occurred.

You've gone quiet since the Kurz thread.

What worthwhile competition has your country won?

What he decides to do is irrelevant. I told you what he had done.

You suggested I was wrong and my source was wrong, yet you cant tell me what part was wrong.

Good enough to have you running away and not answering.
