I thought before last night that I kind of understood racism, couldn’t understand how it felt to be a victim, but thought I had an idea.
After seeing the reaction of Kamara, Zungu and Goldson and more so Goldson’s interview today, it hit me.
I don’t have a clue.
The hurt in his voice today is still haunting me all these hours later.
I’m angry. I’ve spent all night and day angry and I don’t even know Glen. I can’t imagine what Glen, his family and his team mates are going through. How they showed the restraint they did is beyond me.
I disliked the taking of the knee, not because I’m a racist, but for me because it represented the ugly BLM scenes we saw. Again, it’s struck me, I don’t have a clue.
When the likes of the Man U players and Zaha were abused online I thought that’s terrible, but never really gave it much thought.
This has to stop. Our club has to take it all the way. If (when) UEFA don’t deal with it I hope we take it further.
As society we need to do more
We need to be better
