Both admitted using the words, both argued that they were taken out of context.

One argued it was a term of endearment in his country, which obviously has no impact on how Evra took it and our rules and culture. Totally invalid argument.

The other claimed he merely repeated what was said ....with added sarcasm for whatever reason. Probably completely made up but an argument which casts doubts despite the evidence of what was said and the intent (perceived from the video).

i would think this has set the 'kick it out campaign' back years.

Let's kick it out, unless you play for England then fill your boots!

David Johnstone, from Chelsea fanzine cfcuk.net, tells the BBC: "It's a fantastic result for John Terry and Chelsea. What a waste of time. I'm one of those who cringes with embarrassment at the bad language in football. But what goes on on the pitch should stay on the pitch."
Hear, hear. The laws that govern fans watching football and the rest of society should not in anyway be applicable to footballers.

On the plus side, RAWK must be a fun place at the moment

Lip Reader: He's saying "Back Clump".
Attorney: What the hell is a back clump?
Lip Reader: I'm just a lip reading expert
Attorney: next line
Lip Reader: Fun King Knee Her
Attorney: what?
Lip Reader: That's what he said
Attorney: Okay this line
Lip Reader: Wide Powder
Attorney: That makes no sense
Lip Reader: You'd have to talk to Mr. Terry about that
John: Why did everybody laugh when I said please?
Attorney: what about this line
Lip Reader: Ji-Ga Boo. I think it's a Korean player.
Attorney: And this line
Lip Reader: I hay old dork pee poles
Attorney: That's absurd.
Lip Reader: Once again, I'm just an expert
Judge: I've heard enough. This man is obviously not a racist. An absurdest maybe. But not a racist.

I don't know details of the top 3, but Terry was found NOT GUILTY so watch what you say. As for his other crimes, I am sure many of us have committed similar sins without the world judging us.

In the eyes of the law OJ Simpson is not a murderer and Michael Jackson was not a paedophile....

But if Ledley King brings out a biography one day the uncensored version would be pretty explosive

Why did John Terry's brother cause the suicide of a young footballer? It was the young footballers slut of a mrs that caused him to go in to depression. Sluts will always find a guy, if it wasn't Paul Terry it would have been someone else ( probably John! )

It became obvious Terry was getting a not guilty from early on in this trial. It was a shambles, embarrassing at times.

How long have you been on the bus? Been about seven years, saw the Dead at MSG 04/25/09, Furthur at Radio City 02/23-24/10. Mainly stick to 68-70, 73-77. Looking forward to hearing the shows Weir is doing with Hornsby/Marsalis in a few days.

About 15 years I guess, it's been a long strange trip. I managed to see Rat Dog (and the Allman Brothers) a few years ago at the Jones Beach Arena, if you want a copy I can upload to rapidshare.

So, just to summarise today's verdict, it's aright to be racist, just as long as you commit the offence on the football pitch

What a fooking joke

I've uploaded Terrys red card to youtube. I couldn't be bothered to edit it so just uploaded most of the game. There's 2 parts, part 1 has the red card live and at the end of the video is a replay starting from a different angle. Then part 2 shows the rest of the replay

Go to 22.20 on first video.

I don't need to see the vid (I can't anyway as I'm at work) as I remember it well (helps that it was Bonfire night).

Whatever was said afterwards is irrelevant. Terry was sent off for his conduct, and at one point it looked like several of our black players were going to beat the shit out of Terry. I've also never seen King react that way before, or since for that matter.

Still...Terry has a licence to say what he likes now. Pathetic.
