About this whole incident, is that it resulted from people outside the game looking at some video tape and then building the story. Initially I think there was no big issue from the players themselves. Once the issue was created by the media, the rest have jumped on. Has the England dressing room been toxic the last number of times Terry has captained the team since September? Why would it be now? Jason Roberts just wants to make a name for himself in the media now that his career is on the downward slope.

I think he knows he’ll be found guilty and delayed it till after the tournament so he could remain as captain. There’s no other reason. An innocent man wouldn’t want this hanging over his head. he would want it gone asap. I suspect he will retire from international football right after the tournament. He will be crucified and he knows it. He may even loose the Chelsea captaincy for it so he’s pushed it to this summer to give himself some time. The thing is he called him a F*%king Black C*&t which for my money is less about the black part which is descriptive and more about the C*&t which is an insulting word. And i’m sure players talk shit like that all the time. But you can’t get caught.

Just my 2 cents
