England v Spain rant.
OK I'm fucking furious now. The abuse that the black England players are getting tonight is beyond appalling. So I'm sorry if anyone reading this is Spanish or of Spanish heritage or is even sipping energetically from a glass of Rioja at the moment and I know not all Spaniards are racists but what I am hearing is a disgrace. And people wonder why Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira will never play for Spanish clubs.
If this happened at an English ground I would curl up and die of the shame.
So here's the list of my boys who deserve and need all our love and respect more than ever before in the face of hate and stupidity:
Ashley Cole
Rio Ferdinand
Shaun-Wright Phillips
Jermaine Defoe
Jermaine Jenas
How they kept their composure for as long as they did is a testament to their goodness in the face of what I consider to be one of the personifications of evil at work in the world. *breathes out, pissed off, disappointed*
