KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum John Terry reacts to Euros exit...

he knows hte court case is looming and trying to escape

Haha!

Political asylum in Italy!

Never heard of that before.

Maybe he can stay with Berlusconi. His mafia-friends will see to that the British authorities won't take JT out of the country in one piece!

now he has his day in court

I thought John Terry was immense for england in the euros fully justifying Hodgson's faith in him over that clown Ferdinand who is nowhere near as good as his ego thinks he is.

Good luck in the court case John which is a show trial and a lot of politically correct posturing. Hopefully it will be thrown out.

it depends if he said what was caught on tv then he should be brought to book

Not sure of the ins and outs of it but is it racist to say as Terry initially claimed that he said "I didn't call you a black ****"? For whats it worth I think he did call him blind but Terry is no angel.

He was immense last night, not sure how many blocks he got in

i can separate the player from the person

yes he was great last night and is a good player but that doesn't let him off if he was racist

He was great for England this tournament, particularly last night. All credit to him, he was pretty flawless and contributed massively to keeping us in the game for 120 mins. Having said that, his defense of "I was saying do you think I called you a..." is feeble at a push. I'm not getting aggro and shouting racist terry etc etc, as the man clearly plays and gets on with players from all different races, but he clearly made a racist comment in the heat of the moment. For that, if the FA want to be consistent in anyway whatsoever, need to hand him the same ban as Suarez, Which I'm pretty sure they'll do after he gets the little slap on the wrist fine from the courts.

Is it a different scenario though if Ferdinand presumably thought he heard him call him black etc and said did you call me a black **** and then Terry responds and says no I didnt call you a black ****? If Terry called him blind initially I don't know if that is the same as Suarez
