safarigirl: So you know more about being British that the one who actually spent all 21 years of this life as a citizen there? After having gone to school as a Englishman, played in academies as an Englishman, played in England youth teams as an Englishman, currently playing in the Chelsea first team as an Englishman, you believe that Tammy Abraham would be oblivious to a racism that you as a Nigerian are able to see from your thousands of miles away? All the evidence, my friend, is entirely to the contrary. Black foreigners in numbers are accepted and assimilated easily in British society. Take a look at their parliament! Take a look at their medical system! Take a look at the premier league sports teams! What matters to the British is your legal status, and your competence to perform your duty. There is absolutely no evidence of this foreigner complex you speak of. 1 Like |

SmartyPants:And you know this from spending many years in Britain, that is why Tammy and Sterling are still racially attacked? |

SmartyPants:You can check the UKBA website (United Kingdom Border Agency ) for all this information pls. I'm also a living example,to be modest, but the real truth is that English people are very sentimental about football and are passionate for white indigene adorning 3 lions shirts. You're not a real indigene if you're not Whites, and thus the reason they worship David Beckham and Wayne Rooney as their superstar to the detriment of other Black Players like Rio Ferdinand and Patrick Cole etc. Imagine if Kanu Nwakwo talented 11 year old son wish to play for England in the future as a black indigene born and raised in Britain. He will be jeered and had Banana thrown at him and I'm sure Kanu Nwakwo will never approved any of his children to play for other country apart from Nigeria. . You're a true indigene if you're White only. That is the reality in practice. |

odomanis:You're truly Nationalistic ! You can only be a Jewish if both of your parents are Jewish and not only your father. That' is why you can never acquired Jewish citizenship because you don't have the Jewish gene in your spermicide. Nigeria is Not British despite your British passport. You're indigenous Nigerian wherever you are. |

It's better to be in bench in England than to be in 1st eleven in Nigeria |

TempleHouse: @ bolded that's not what I asked! I simply asked you for evidence that what you call a foreigner will never be accepted as an indigene even after attaining citizenship. Please, where is the evidence? Can you cite any examples of people this has happened to before? Very i You are simply speculating! If Kanu Nwankwo's son wants to play they will thro bananas at him....based on what? When have English fans ever thrown bananas at their own players?? Did they throw Bananas at Dele Alli? Did they not idolize him? What do you mean by they idolized Wayne Rooney and David Beckham to the detriment of Rio Ferdinand and Patrick Cole? Who is Patrick Cole in the first place? If you don't know Ashley Cole, then you seem not to be well informed! And is it not normal to idolize attackers over defenders? Were Ashley Cole and Rio Ferdinand not given the same hype that John Terry and Gary Neville were? Maybe Rio Ferdinand was even given the greatest hype of all, as at the time Man Utd paid 30 million pound for him, that was the world record fee for a defender! |

tonyimadu: When I say use and dump. I meant they will earn few caps and once they drop in form that's the end of their international career cos they've got a lot of players waiting in the wings. |

safarigirl: They are racially attacked by a very very minute portion of the population, that would not even constitute 0.001 percent of the British population, and when it does happen, the majority of society right from the FA with the kick it out campaign and stiff punishments for racists behavior, the clubs, fellow professionals, and regular people on the streets leap to their defense and support. It is in fact, even the topic of this thread! As the England team has agreed to walk out if any black player is racially abused. How do you focus on the isolated actions of a few outliers and camp on that to make an argument, while ignoring the overwhelming mountain of evidence that British football society does not accept racism? |
Re: Tammy Abraham Says England Not Nigeria Has Always Been His Dream Team by TempleHouse: 12:50pm On Oct 09, 2019 |
SmartyPants:Far from the truth, my brother ! Some white pundits have said on live SKY TV programme that Tammy Abraham will be on the back of the queue if he choose to play for England because he will queue behind Harry Kane. And that Tammy profile is better served in Nigeria but he has a choice to make as a "naturalised citizen" Remember how he was booed and racially abused for missing penalty at Chelsea few weeks ago. The same white supporters don't recognised a black player was born in Britain as long as you have a black skin. Nwobi will flourish in Nigeria team while Tammy will be used and dump once he lost his form in English shirt. |
Re: Tammy Abraham Says England Not Nigeria Has Always Been His Dream Team by SmartyPants(m): 12:51pm On Oct 09, 2019 |
Tokziby: So? Is it not up to the player to maintain his form? The National team selection should always be on merit and current form except for the most exceptional players. |
Re: Tammy Abraham Says England Not Nigeria Has Always Been His Dream Team by SmartyPants(m): 12:54pm On Oct 09, 2019 |
TempleHouse: I have repeatedly asked you for just one thing. Evidence that white British supporters do not accept a player as long as he has black skin. I know you must be an honorable man, and you could not have made up such a thing. you must have had your sources before you could say that. So just share your sources with me so that I can be informed too. Im sure you would be kind enough. |

SmartyPants:It's quite obvious you don't understand and trying to prove your argument which defy logic and reality. That you don't know that Dele Alli has been thrown Banana twice is a clear fact you're clueless about this narration. I'm sure many people will fault your argument as you' seems ignorant to know what indigene mean to the white people by mixing all together with the record fee and irrelevant issue. Unfortunately , you're not equipped to understand the argument and there is no need to argue with someone who is happy to remain in their state of ignorance. |

You guy's should stop being more catholic than the pope. You contributed nothing to his development and all of a sudden you now know what's best for him when you have no clue of the story behind his glory? |
