unekwubaby:




gbam,when VALDES made his own blunder because we BARCA fans are more learned than the formal we didnt complain ooooooooooooooooooo
To begin with,Why would yhu take the disgraceful actions of few miscreants masqurading as 'fans' to be the general stand of TRUE FANS of the Club? So throwing a pig's head at yhur former player is an hallmark of the ''learned''?.... If any team should take a moral high ground in this, its not Barcelona. Yhur antecedents are well documented. Poor student of history yhu are! Yhur team is as equally culpable. Even Samuel Eto'o was subjected to racial abuses from his own 'fans'.

finallytalking:

in my honest opinion, It is the average black man's lack of self worth that makes him feel racially abused. If a white man calls you a monkey, smile and call him a pig if you feel the need to retort, they do look like pigs don't they, the same way we look like monkeys.

The only reason why they call you monkey is because you tend to depend on them for everything,even sports.

Yours is never good enough,because you never made effort to have yours.

Lets stop being myopic and accept the facts that we are not any better.
Even if tribalism is not involved, do u know how we africans treat ALBINOS.
My God!!! If u were one u would probably be wishing u were created as a dog.
We treat them like trash people, pure garbage.

And besides why shouldn't they think ur dark skin is gross when we keep insulting ghanians, our darker counter parts?

Arent all these things equivalent to racial abuse?

Also, what makes u think it was a large amount of white fans that were insulting him?
It could just have been a handful of drunks wrought with anger as we are when we insult the darker skin of ghanians.

Pls let we africans stop playing victim and move on with life.

what goes around comes around,mikel and other chelsea players signed on the letter written by salomon kalou that was submited in court in full suport of John Terry,that letter was among the reason he was found not guilty by the court in his racism fued with Atton Ferdinald.Sorry Mikel,if John Terry is not a racist,the guy that insulted you on twitter is not a racist too.I hope u are enjoying the pains Ferdinald felt then

I think the black player's are taking this racial thing way too far, most of the african footballer's get more insult's in their homeland compared to what they face in their club and they dare not talk; we've heard of people like Amokachi and Yakubu being attacked by angry Nigerian supporter's, after a disapointing performance by the player's, yet they never threatened to leave the super eagle's. Though Mikel's mistake was'nt intentional, but he should'nt expect the angry fan's to embrace him and kiss him on the four head like the father of the prodigal son. He should understand that the racial abuse was born out thier anger toward's the mistake he made, and not hatred toward's the man of colour.

They would call you a black monkey regardless whether you depend on them or not, They called Barack Obama a black monkey, Monkey chant at football stadium has nothing to do with feeling inferior, coloured England players get monkey chants when England plays one of the teams from eastern europe, and I repeat its got nothing to do with been inferior

Spot on though people are split on this Mikel issue, but Mikel gave the ball away, the ball still travelled to Juve's half then came back everyone stood and watch and then John Terry took the lazy option to mark a player and Quiggy scored.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1340694-chelsea-vs-juventus-6-things-we-learned-in-2-2-draw



I'm damn tired of people who are always looking for the guys mistake. His decision to join chelsea instead of Man U still haunts many... I just don't understand why they can't move on. They didn't kill Luiz for his sloppy defensive approach against Atletico or hang Lampard for. Jogging all over the field doing nuffin that day.. This Mikel was the only performer that night aside Ever-inform Harzard... *sighs* Haters would never move forward tho. The. Guy is in training now preparing for stoke match. I remember the time of Makelele too. People complains that he doesn't score, but once he's out of any match, chelsea attackers are always forced to come back and defend....

Have ever asked youself why they think it is practically impossible for an african country to win the world cup?Because they know africans are not up to it,and you are not up to it when you dont believe in yourself,like most of you here that find solace in foreign racist football clubs when you have home clubs that are crying out for support,publicity and development.

Oyinbos got you guys with publicity and graphics and you think there are more to it than kicking footballs,making money and calling names.Your interest in them,makes them richer and superior and you,more foo-lish and poor.

Scholes is a playmaker

Busquets plays for Barcelona, even if my grandmother plays for barcelona she would score

Yayaa Toure plays as CM/Attacking midfielder,

Ballack is a second striker for Germany and a CM

Carrick is a CM


Mikel is a defensive midfielder

Claude Makalele scored 4 goals in 11 years (1 goal for real madrid) I guess he was rubbish as well, actually thats what the Club president said when he sold Makalele to chelsea he said he was Rubbish, and Zinedine Zidane said to the President when he bought David Beckham as his replacement, "Why respray the Rolls Royce, when you are selling the engine"

Carlo Ancelotti said Mikel reminds him of himself at AC Milan

acidtalk: You all condemning the Racial attacks and abuse should SHUT the Fu*ck up.

Are you all not worst racist to you fellow Nigerian?
Racism has gone far beyond colour discrimination.

How else can you explain the tribal war going on in this forum every second of each passing day. Where Ibo insults the Yoruba's at the slightest topic and Yoruba does the same too to the hausa.

Jonathan is even the worst racist (trbalist) currently in Nigeria as he is more concerned abouth the welfare of the South-South people instead of Nigeria as a whole.

Seun is the worst racist on this forum. As ONLY bad news of the Ibos are put on the frontpage.


The ONLY Patrotic Nigeria that still exist as at today is Obasanjo. That man judges fairly without putting religion or ethnicity to play.


U stated it like it is.

Re: Mikel Obi Deletes Twitter Account After Racial Abuse by Datweence(m): 10:48am On Sep 21, 2012
I think this brings the game as we Nigerians see it into perspective. Some weeks ago, we almost rolled out the drums because John Terry was exonerated of racial abuse when video evidence clearly suggested otherwise just because he plays for a club we support. We need to come to terms with the fact that Britain, just like its european counterparts, is struggling with the integration of people of other races into its society. Like it or not, no matter how good you are, you get the stick as long as you are a foreign import. If you don't believe, ask Austin 'Jay Jay' Okocha. He was told to 'pack his tiger skins' and leave the club. Any form of discrimination, be it racism or tribalism, is a shame on our 'global village' and should not be condoned because of football affiliations. It was Anton Ferdinand & Evra yesterday, it's Mikel today, it may be you tomorrow. Let's come together to fight this societal disgrace. By the way, Mikel shouldn't have deleted his twitter account. He's been in the UK for quite some time & ought to be thick-skinned by now. He could rather put the account to good use in fighting his cause.

Lmao... Some of you are not getting this straight. Mikel didn't complain about being called black or I probably heven't read the news that said Mikel cried over racist abuse. Mikel is very new to twitter, he's not a twitter addict like some other players. He hardly tweet. As far as he is the owner of the account and he feels its of no use to him. He's got the right to delete it. Its his own way of telling the morons to shut up. @Mikel12official was released some months ago and now it has been deleted. Please embrace his decision and move on.
