Burnley beat Manchester United. Although, I like Man United because they have many British players and white players, I am still glad Burnley won.

Not only is Burnley almost all white, 23 of the 33 players listed on wiki are from the British Isles.

what a tremendous victory! in one of the biggest upsets in Premier League history, Burnley's Beauty and "the Beast" fell Manchester United.

Having waited 33 years to stage a top-flight match at Turf Moor, Burnley were not going to be denied their moment of glory last night as they inflicted a shock 1-0 defeat on Manchester United, the champions.


A superb goal from Robbie Blake, their 33-year-old forward, and a penalty save to thwart Michael Carrick by Brian Jensen, the goalkeeper nicknamed "the Beast"Â￾, produced one of the greatest upsets in the 17-year history of the Premier League and left United to face some awkward questions ...

Bunely are by far the smallest team in the Premiership; in terms of finances, and they only have a small fan base (Burnley is a small town in North West England). They were promoted last year and are considered one of the favourites to be demoted this season.

They rely on local players and in that respect are really at the opposite end of the spectrum to most other teams nowadays - especially big money teams such as Chelsea and Manchester City - who just knock together a bunch of random stars at a ridiculous price.

Heres to success this season at Burnley!

Hull and Portsmouth - with their affirmative action squads - have a good chance of going down to the Champions League this year.

Pleasantly surprised by Birmingham which used to have quite a lot of blacks on the team. What happened there?

thanks for the list--and it's nice to see Burnley win; would love to see them beat Portsmouth and Hull City.

caught just a bit of a match the other day between Burnley, and i think Chelsea. Burnley took a good thumping (3-0), and it appeared that they had 3 non-white field players on the pitch the entire game.

As far as i know Burnley have just one black and one black looking mixed in their squad, both who regularly start. The third guy you speak of maybe a brand new signing..will look into it. There are a lot of signings going on at the moment (transfer deadline is today) and the list above will already be 5% innacurate.

Arsenal are interesting at the moment - they have been one of those 'black' teams for years (like Portsmouth and Wigan have become now) - it has just been a given that the manager Wenger will consistently buy West African and black French players, but suddenly this last year this have changed, and once Fabregas and Nasri are back from injury we might be seeing the unthinkable (under Wegner) - 8 starting white players for Arsenal!

Adu didn't get much playing time during the South Africa tourny this year. The only reason why he was in the US is because his mother won that stupid green card lottery. 50,000 [people a year win and if you include spouses or children coming that could mean 150,000-200,000 peope a year. I think Ted Kennedy started that, but at his grave sight all I saw were a bunch of white people. So much for diversity. It's only diversity for the average guy and also free markets for the average guy. The rich will get baled out.

The black footballer has been actively promoted within the English game since the mid-1970s.The agenda was always there, for it doesn't take an insightful genius to see that football, along with music and films, is the ultimate propaganda tool â€" it is the world's most popular sport, and definitely the most popular in Britain and Europe. What better way to mould the minds of impressionable young white children and teenagersthan through football? If the footballing heroes are black, then blacks shall consequently be accepted by British and European society with open arms (or so the theory goes...). Quite naturally, wherever black sportspeople are involved, the issue of "racism' must inevitably arise and must equally inevitably be "stamped out" by the powers of "good"Â, "tolerance"Â, and "open-mindedness"Â, thus providing a "salutary" lesson for all "misguided" or "ignorant" whites. Cue the ubiquitous "Kick Racism Out Of Football" campaign...<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><O:p></O:p>
It's amazing how quickly things can change. Back in the 1980s, sections of English fans would boo black players and pelt them with bananas, either real or of the large inflated variety. But following a few brief years of "re-education"Â the black player is now embraced as a hero, and most teams now field increasingly black, or even 100% non-white, lineups. Forget the composition of clubs' squads. Tally the number of non-whites on the field at any point in a match , as that's what the public sees and, therefore, that's what counts. <O:p></O:p>
Anyway, back to the agenda. In the 1980s, black players began to appear in England in ever greater numbers. There were a few in the 1970s, such as Viv Anderson, Cyrille Regis, and Laurie Cunningham, but they really came out of the woodwork in the second half of the 80s. As a kid back then I was completely football daft â€" a total fanatic (well, you'd have to be, supporting Peterborough United.
smiley2.gif
). Needless to say, I was less than impressed, as I could see that this trickle would eventually lead to today's vast fetidmarsh of reality â€" a reality which has been too much for me to stomach for the last nine to ten years. I was always decried as a "racist" whenever I mentioned that blacks were being forced upon the fans and that it would only be a very short matter of time before virtually all-black teams were the norm. Well, that time has nearly arrived. The English Premier League (funnily enough, the most watched league on the planet...) has almost fallen to the same level as the "American" sports which have always repulsed me for one reason only â€" blacks upon blacks upon blacks. How can one relate to a team full of people that are not of your own colour / race? The powers behind the English football establishment are seemingly moving mountains in order to emulate the disgraceful "standards" set by the French League â€" "la ligue d'Afrique..."Â<O:p></O:p>
When I was growing up, I noticed certain trends, which would continue through the 1990s â€" namely, that the black players who were introduced into top-flight teams disproportionately tended to be forwards, hence were highly visible and marketable. It would not matter if white players performed all of the creative lead-up work and the black striker simply tapped it in â€" the black would appear in the match highlights, and in newspapers and magazines, the great matchwinner with a beaten white goalkeeper in the background. The players the masses remember and admire the most are the goalscorers. What better way to acclimatise white fans to the presence of black players than placing them in the "glamour" positions? Just off the top of my head, I can name a heap of black, so-called "English"Â, strikers from that "formative era"Â: Regis, Mark and Brian Stein, Luther Blissett, John Fashanu (and his homosexual brother Justin), Rod and Danny Wallace, Brian Deane, Ian Wright, Michael Thomas, Mark Bright, Kevin Campbell, Les Ferdinand, David Rocastle, Dion Dublin, Robbie Earle, Efan Ekoku, Dalian Atkinson, Andy Cole, Chris Armstrong, Stan Collymore, Dean Sturridge, Emile Heskey, Marcus Gayle, Carl Cort, Jason Euell. Quite a lot, eh? In addition, plenty of "foreign" black strikers were imported during the period, such as Daniel Amokachi, Tony Yeboah, Dwight Yorke, Phil Masinga, Peter Ndlovu, Nwankwo Kanu, Nicolas Anelka, Pierre van Hooijdonk, Faustino Asprilla, Thierry Henry, and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink to name but a few.<O:p></O:p>
One can also add attacking midfielders to the high-profile "glamour"Â function of black players - names such as Laurie Cunningham, John Barnes, Mark Walters, Tony Daley, Trevor Sinclair, or even Ruel Fox. <O:p></O:p>
The common thread with many of these players was that they were hyped far out of proportion to their actual abilities. The media heaped almost American-style praise upon these very visible black players, emphasising their great importance to the game. The salient example was John Barnes, who was the 80s leftists' ultimate dream â€" a useful attacking black player born in Jamaica, speaking with a West Indian accent, and representing England. Interestingly enough, despite all of the endless eulogies, Barnes did not fulfil his ambition of playing for one of the big clubs in Italy or Spain, even though English clubs were banned from European competitions from 1985 following the Heysel Stadium Disaster. Continental clubs obviously weren't all that keen on his "magnificent" talents, even with the carrot of European football available to dangle before him... <O:p></O:p>
The launch of the Premier League in 1992 heralded a new age of commercialisation which sounded the death knell of traditional English football. The more popular English football became around the world in the 1990s, the more black players were recruited. This was being mirrored, on a lesser scale, throughout Europe (apart from France, the Netherlands, and Portugal, where the numbers of blacks were greater). English clubs were not only being stacked with non-white and foreign players, but were also increasingly owned by foreigners as well. This was the fatal decade in which Silvio Berlusconi, in his role as president of AC Milan, had implemented the rotational "turnover"Â policy of signing more than the three UEFA sanctioned foreigners permitted at a club, which paved the way for eventual changes in the UEFA rules. These changes opened the floodgates for hordes of Brazilians and Africans to pour into European football, destroying the identities of clubs, and altering the mindsets of supporters, throughout the continent. I recall Zvonimir Boban's comment that he would have a better chance of getting a game at Milan if he blackened his face, given the trend of signing black players. That statement, although well over a decade old, was eerily prophetic and perfectly encapsulates the current European situation.<O:p></O:p>
Sorry for the lengthy rant, but I still silently rail on a daily basis against the "system" which has taken the sport which I loved away from me, for I cannot watch what is on offer these days. Football was an integral part of my life and provided a source of joy and solace in formative years which were less than pleasant â€" now it is only a source of profound sorrow and boundless anger.<O:p></O:p>

Good Post Rebajlo,

I am tired of all the Brzilians and Africans and Agerntinians for that matter.It's funny how very few of the skilled midfielders are black.
What is happening to England depresses me. There were a ton of black players on the England u21 team today. I'll have to count to get the exact number.

Look at how a player like Letissier was not given much of a chance on the England team. Talk about skill.

I am getting tired of watching European football because of all the foreign players.

This would make a good article for the CF homepage.

I checked out the England u21 vs Portugal u21 and it looked like England had 8 blacks playing. Eight!!!Portugal even had at least 2.

British football is a very shameful picture to look at. The same can be said for France. Anybody have an idea if the Netherlands is like this 2 countries?

I know Dutch basketball is pretty much black, just like the UK and France.

The England under 21 team is a complete and utter disaster. However the under 17 team though is something like the adult team is now, and in fact a bit more white. I think half of those 8 in the current under-21 are mixed but i guess theyre still considered black.

Interesting.
U-17s - more White
U-21s - more Black
Full internationals - More White

Does anybody spot the pattern?

U-17s: Effects of the caste system by this age are limited. But now it starts to kick in. White kids are encouraged to do other stuff - eductation, etc. - so many now drop out. Black kids meanwhile are encouraged to stick to football as there is not much else for many of them except joining street gangs. Even if they are not that inherently good at football they receive full encouragement to continue playing. Low levels of technique in the English game mean that simple athleticism - boosted by quicker Black maturation rates - gives lots of these talentless Black players a temporary and apparent edge.

U-21s: Based on the workings of the caste system, by U-21 level Black kids have built up an unjustified degree of dominance, but White players now start to close the maturity gap, and, at this level, things like skill, accuracy, workrate, creativity, and teamwork start to become more important.

Full Internationals: White players (those who stuck with the sport despite all the encouragement to leave) have now reasserted themselves due to their superior all-round footballing talent, with many of the best 'black' players being mulattos.

Now that's the most double standard crap I've ever seen:
"Encourage whites to leave, Encourage blacks to stay."

I know this topic is a couple months old, but I just joined the forum tonight and couldnt help but comment. Rebajlo, excellent post. I first started following the Premier League about 15 years ago. There were a fair amount of blacks then, too many for my taste. However, over the last several years the number of blacks and other non-whites reached numbers where I pretty much gave up on the Premier League. I saw from the list that my (former) favorite club Wigan are 4th from the bottom.
And yes, the England U21 side is a sick joke like France. All the forwards are black, one of them I believe was born in the Congo, yet somehow is playing for England. ?!

Klassikality - thanks, mate. As I mentioned in my original post, the sheer volume of black forwards in all levels of English footballis staggering. Let's take a couple of the most recent F.A. Cup ties as examples.

Here is a "headline" photo from last night's Stoke - Arsenal match:
ricardofuller20100124_412x232.jpg


This is just the kind of image that the "system" prefers, viz. the matchwinning black striker in a celebratory pose. All of those nice young white Stoke City fans have a hero to adore. Nine players of Stoke's starting lineup were white (which is exceedingly atypical for anywhere in Europe), but the two strikers were, funnily enough,black: Ricardo Fuller (seen above) and Mamady Sidibe.

Here is another "headline" photo from the Tottenham - Leeds tie:
leedsbeckfordpen20100123_350x197.jpg


This time the hero is Jermaine Beckford (his first name is a dead giveaway), whose brace gives Leeds a draw. Another black striker for young English kids to be in awe of. Mind You, English kids are a dying breed in Leeds and West Yorkshire in general, soperhaps the hordes of Pakistanis, Indians, Bangladeshis and blacks will take note instead...

As for the national team, it won't take long for the situation to be identical to that which exists in France - i.e., a white player featuring in the starting lineup is astartling surprise. For instance, the "big name" white midfield regulars Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, and David Beckham will respectively turn 30, 32, and 35 this year. Wayne Rooney will only be 25, so he has a good seven to nine years ahead of him (as long as he stays relatively injury-free...) but he shall in all probability be surrounded with (and eventually be replaced by) black forwards, given the lack of opportunities presented to whites in these positions. Lower-tier teams are also filled with blacks and foreigners, so it is becoming increasingly difficult for young English players to get a game at any level. The consequences shall unfortunatelybe reflected in senior Englandsquads muchmore rapidly than anyonecurrently imagines...
