Sterling - ITV edited out the ear cupping

[dangermows]

Was weird that.

The commentator almost had a go at sterling and said something like ‘I’m not sure that’s the wisest thing to do... I definitely haven’t heard any racist chanting’.

Probably another Sterling hater.

Why say may have been racist? I cannot imagine it was anything else. They were being racist.

I was in my living room m8. Watching with commentary on telly.

Clive Tydlesley actually said on commentary he heard no racist shouts is he f***ing deaf

He's got earphones on and is a bell end.....

Let’s see if UEFA have the balls to do anything about it, in the past they’ve handed out bigger fines for pathetic things such as Nicklas Bendtner wearing sponsored underwear.

Didn't actually ear cup tbf. Pulled his lugs out.

You could hear the racist abuse very easily.

Money > Morals

Sky do it mind. They played a generic celebration to drown out chants of sky tv is f***ing shit from derby fans not long ago

BT Sport did it in the cup when FC United starting singing "Fuck BT Sport" & "Fuck the FA" for an FA Cup match that was moved for TV.
You could still hear the FCUM fans with some generic crowd noise piped over the top. Was embarrassing on BT Sport's behalf

Maybe the fans were just chanting “Monte-Negro”?

You said it "may" have been racist.

 

[Geronimo]

It's incitement regardless of any provocation.
Should be fined

Apologist.

 

[Bonzo]

Dock them points,
fines do shite all

 

[pwsafc]

Hypocritical?

No they never

 

[Medulla]

It was shown at the time and Tyldsley (think it was him) criticised him for it, as if he was choosing the goad the crowd.

How he didn't think 'maybe there's been some of that racism!' I don't know.

Despite an epic away win last night for England, the entire focus since has been on the monkey chants that emanated from the Montenegro supporters - a timely reminder for ALL football supporters that we mustn’t tolerate racism.
