what was i initially shocked by this? should have expected it.

terry is allowed to play on for the season. sure he's captured on TV footage racially abusing his england CB partners brother but that's ok, cos he's england captain.

if they don't take hard and immediate action against him in the same way as they did against luis, it can only be considered institutional racial discrimination

Beyond comprehension. Absolutely f*cking disgraceful, but not really surprising.

He should be dropped from international duty while this is pending. For all the stick that LFC got for standing by a man who was judged without any proof, it certainly wouldn't look good for England to go to the Euros with someone as their captain who's already been pretty much proven to have made actual racist comments towards another footballer. Not to mention his previous history...

Why are you complaining? The FA cannot act while there is a court case pending. If you must blame someone then blame the member of the public who made a formal complaint to the police. If not then the FA would have acted by now. I agree that he should have the captaincy removed. Capello should never have given it back to him.

Very true

As captain of Chelsea - who are adored by all the sports reporters in the right wing newspapers, (largely due to their anti-semitic fans amnd the fact that they used to riot in the 80s) Terry would never face the criticism Suarez and Liverpool received, despite the fact he's on video calling Ferdinand (well we know what he said)

His version is far more inconsitent than anything Suarez said to the FA Commitee and it's jusat another examol;e of the football establishment caving in backwards to protect the odious John Terry - one of the few players who warrants the 'piece of sh*t' description

The biggest irony of the whole saga is that i can say without a shadow of the doubt one of Suarez ands Terry is a genuine racist - and it's not Suarez

Is is unbelievable but not in the way you mean. How can somebody in the UK be sent to trial for insulting anyone? and if so why are some race insults (Diane Abbot) ok but others must feel the full force of the law. If I call my neighbour fat should I go to trial and if not why not? And if it is against the law then why is Suarez not also being tried? I am no lover of John Terry but this is an absolute disgrace and is going to lead to a lot of trouble next summer and a lot of real racisim will now start on the back of it. I hope they know what they are doing here.

The only disgrace here is John Terry himself - an appalling human being by any standard - or more importantly the double standards the FA are applying to the two cases

I agree with you that it's ridicolous that his case has gone to court - as with Suarez it should have been dealt with by the footballing authorities rather than the filth - but this decisaion gives the FA the excuse they need to take no action against the man leading their country

Everyone will have almost forgotten about this by the summer and once the Euro championships are over

What real racism will strart on the back of this?

The media and the FA might disagree, and by the sound of it you do too, but football fans (outside the Chelsea contingent at least) almost universally see John Terry for the vile, greedy and racist little sh*t he really is and despise him for it

Popular he ain't - and if he did go to prison for this (highly unlikely and to be honest thoroughly unwarranted) that's an end most would applaud - even if the means used to do so are more questionable

It's gone to court because a member of the public complained to the police. No one complained about Suarez. It's not a plot, its the law. He will not go to prison.. the most you can get for racially abusing someone is 2500 fine. Then the FA van do their stuff. And yes, if you insult someone and they complain then the look e will investigate.
