He doesn't have to prove he isn't racist. He only has to establish doubt that he may not be.Luda said:As much as I hate John Terry...how do you prove you're not racist?
It's pretty difficult.
Still...cunt, innit.
Hopefully this doesn't seem pedantic, since I think it's important to get this distinction straight:Luda said:As much as I hate John Terry...how do you prove you're not racist?
Not calling someone a "fucking black cunt" might be a good start. I have never said that to anyone and nobody has ever accused me of being racist. Coincidence?Luda said:As much as I hate John Terry...how do you prove you're not racist?

Fairly certain this was mentioned as they used footage, from the same match, where Terry made 'fat' gestures to Paddy.
Not sure whether it was the pros using it in 'you're a bastard' way, or the defence in an 'it's football banter innit' type way, though.
In a hilarious misunderstanding, John Terry was asked to repeat evidence that he had been sent off four times in his career.
“Can you say, please, four times?” asked his QC, George Carter-Stephenson.
“Please, please, please, please,” Terry responded.
Guffaws of laughter broke out around the courtroom at the misunderstanding, which was a result of the judge asking Terry to speak up.
The footballer appeared confused by response from the courtroom.
Penny said Ferdinand was not the first "victim" who did not want to testify in court.
Yeah I'm suprised they didn't use Wayne BridgeBlanchflower said:Can't believe he called Ashley Cole as a character witness :avbfacepalm:
