@sebascouting It’s just so normalised. My son plays football with a Spanish boy and his mum is a Real Madrid fan. She told me that Real Madrid doesn’t look “Spanish” anymore because of all the black players. She honestly didn’t understand and was bemused when I told her that wasn’t acceptable.

Just a few quick notes on the ongoing #footballindex situation as I’m seeing more and more speculation. 1. The £4.5m held with Nedbank which is referenced in the Judges ruling is in relation to cash balances and not anything to do with port values or cash set aside for divs.

Let’s be clear. Jonny Bairstow was 100% out as per the laws of the game. What isn’t right is that he was clearly not seeking any advantage, wasn’t running and it was the end of the over. Cummins should have had the moral courage to withdraw the appeal and he didn’t.
