To be honest I'm not a huge fan of some of the politically correct nonsense, often used by individuals to deflect people from real issues in society. The protests in the NFL are particularly ridiculous, considering the fact many of these African American players, have committed horrific crimes against their community such as raping young Black women. The recent phony Hollywood protests, often done by people who were close friends of the accused, is yet another sign or moral hypocrisy in these times. However the use comments made by Holgate when he was 15, at a time when most people including myself at that age would of used homophobic language is ridiculous. Just look at the inbetweeners. some of the jokes they made would never get to TV now. However, there's no reason why Holgate would risk sending off, by putting his hands of the referee, plus the referee not punishing him unless he was racially abused. The referee wouldn't of told the 4th official, if he hadn't heard something serious. Holgate has no motive to lie about what was said to him. Most premier league players, unlike the players who play in the NFL are just normal decent people (RS players aside). Holgate is just a normal lad, who believes he should be able to play football, without being racially abused by RS players and their moronic fans.

Can't be a serious post.

What an absolutely wonderful lesson that is.

Don't you dare speak up if you're racially abused; if you said something immature when you were literally a child, we'll unearth it and destroy your career if you do.

Sensational.

Not saying I don' believe the lad but after 87 pages do we even have any evidence of this happening?
 
So tweets not being investigated by the FA but the police (who will probably do nothing as he was 15) are. Any updates??
 
If Holgate gets banned for this, and Liverpool face no action for the disgraceful behaviour and racial bullying from their fan base then we may as well admit we're like Serie A and there's no point in players reporting racism. What's the point in having "Kick it out" plastered all over the ad boards in every stadium, but allowing such a witch-hunt when someone makes an allegation?

The amount of horrendous tweets I've seen on this matter is absurd, either outright racism or bigoted ignorance saying things like "How could be racially abuse him? they're the same colour"

This isn't just because he's an Everton player either, if our fan base behaved like this if a opposition player made a racial complaint against an Everton player I'd be equally disgusted and embarrassed. I think this matter has brought to light just how much of an issue racism is in British society, that no journalist seems to have reported on the immorality of this witch hunt whatsoever.
