Now you're taking the piss ............ are you a member of the Rudiger family?So what evidence is there that he slandered the fanbase when the club have said there is no evidence to disprove his allegation?
No I just don't wish to join the Rudiger witch hunt. Like you I think he misheard, I also think he has received a lot of racism in the past and I sympathise with the hurt he must feel having gone through that. I'm ready to join a line under this but some of our fanbase is not.Now you're taking the piss ............ are you a member of the Rudiger family?
Thats not the argument..you know the argument and youve been trying to find someone at spurs be it a fan or the club itself guilty of being racist since rudigers allegations began.. the police and the club despite exstensive investigation have found no evidence regarding rudigers allegationsSo what evidence is there that he slandered the fanbase when the club have said there is no evidence to disprove his allegation?

Nope if you remember I said the one guy on twitter who was supporting the allegation was a liar talking shit.Thats not the argument..you know the argument and youve been trying to find someone at spurs be it a fan or the club itself guilty of being racist since rudigers allegations began.. the police and the club despite extendive investigation have found no evidence regarding rudigers allegations
Nope, he doesn't have a history of crying wolf, you're upset because he's slandering you but you're slandering him. The club don't agree he's been found out.You just wont let this drop will you. NO evidence, no proof - Rudiger has a history of crying wolf!! and he's been found out. As for slandering the fan base he has by calling us out as racist. Now go away you sanctimonius snowflake!!!
oh yes he does he did in Italy and no evidence was found there. I bet you work for the bbc and if you don't you should they spout crap as wellNope, he doesn't have a history of crying wolf, you're upset because he's slandering you but you're slandering him. The club don't agree he's been found out.
I think the majority of Spurs fans would be ready to draw a line under the racism thing if he were also to want to.No I just don't wish to join the Rudiger witch hunt.

There was a lack of evidence but no evidence he made it up. Plus the Italian authorities have a poor history of dealing with racism.oh yes he does he did in Italy and no evidence was found there. I bet you work for the bbc and if you don't you should they spout crap as well
Well you don't know that do you? It was bound to be dragged up once people started booing him, if had nothing had been said journos still would have been commenting on him being booed.I think the majority of Spurs fans would be ready to draw a line under the racism thing if he were also to want to.
The boo's heard at the game *in my opinion* were probably due to the fans not liking the fact he's a cheat and not necessarily to do with the racism allegations. Him dragging up the unproven allegations, and pretty much calling out the police as covering up racist behaviour has stirred up the bitterness in the fanbase even more.
If he'd have just said something like "I know what I heard, but accept that no evidence can be found despite Tottenham's and the police's best efforts" rather than "Racism has won" then it would probably now be dead in the water. Maybe in the long run that wouldn't be best for the fight against racism anyhow and keeping the issue in the public arena for longer is better in general, just not for Spurs and it's fans.
Did you watch the game?How comes Alonso doesn't get the same treatment or even worse? He's a murderer who walked away without any jail time.
On and off.
Obviously off every time Alonso touched the ball then?

The Marcos Alonso, he murdered a girl chant last weekend was pretty grim, don't you think?How comes Alonso doesn't get the same treatment or even worse? He's a murderer who walked away without any jail time.
Worse boos than Rudiger?
Harsh but fair. It should add that he paid the family off to avoid jail time tooThe Marcos Alonso, he murdered a girl chant last weekend was pretty grim, don't you think?
I'm not being funny, but you've just admitted to arguing from a stance of complete ignorance.
