“So the verdict is due later on the FA hearing in to John Terrys alleged racist rant.

Forgive me if im wrong, wasnt he found not guilty in a Court of Law for the same thing?

How can the FA charge him if Legally he is not guilty?

What ramifications does this have if a sports body thinks its above the Law?

Awaiting the verdict with interest ....”

“I always found a big stick helped and the threat that there were 2 million people after your job if you got it wrong !

Oh yea then i was told there where laws against that - we are too soft in this Country - work hard & you are rewarded, mess around & you cant be removed from your post - whats that all about ”

“(sigh) There goes my dream of one day building up an old castle to live in. Drat

I can understand it somehow. There are (checks post again) 191 000 of us living in the UK at the moment. Mostly going after greener pastures (check out the rand/pound conversion) where they then send some of the money they make back home to family, or have some or other political grump they don't want to deal with in SA. I'd bet its the same for everyone that's moved over to the UK. If you think about it though, even though you're born in South Africa or the UK, you're still not a true blue blooded South African/Brit because of your ancestors. My ancestors are French (huguenots), and Irish/Scottish (long story lol) so the only claim I have to being South African is that I was born here.

We have a lot of the same thing happening here with people seeking refuge from beyond our borders because of the life they lead in their own country, and it puts a strain on us as it is because of employment and such.”
