Cheer up Irish

Post by 123456arsenal »

Atleast your team had white players. France had 3 in the entire team. Now i'm not racist but if I black guy was to say "there aren't enough black people in parliament" you'd probably take his opion on board.

Just to answer the "question" in the first post, this is "why" there is a large African influence on France and their football team:

French Empire in 1939:

As to why that's an issue, yo're fucking mad...

MentalG88ner would like to comment on this thread, but following his harsh comments to **** last night, he's decided to keep quiet. :oops: :lol:

But suffice to say, it ain't the best thread I've read :roll:

Look i'm just saying people want to look upto role models now i'm not saying non whites can't be role models or be considered of your nationality but i'm sure minorities look up to people of their own skin colour as people for inspiration. 85% of the french team is black and I wouldn't say that 85% of france is black so i'm sure there are a few kids out there on france's street that think "who can i relate to?".
