    People got their knickers in a twist for some reason as if the mere suggestion Notts could have any slightly racist fans was the most ludicrous thing they'd ever heard.
    You did imply that we might be saying we think Enzio is lazy cause he's black which is nonsense, it's because he's lazy sometimes. You also listed other black players you said we probably thought we lazy cause they were black, one being Aborah who was also lazy. Personally I think it's players who are meant to be 'skillful' who are lazy, black or white. Rammage and Caskey two other examples. You get into dangerous territory with this kind of talk as people who want to say some player is lazy and happens to be black have to think hang on will I be construed as racist if I say that. It's not nice to bandy about the thought that you think some people think lazy players are lazy cause of their skin colour. Anyway I'm off to bed, I'm very rock and roll thesedays.

    Apologies to Freeman about the wrong identification.

    Night chaps.

    It was aimed at me Delroy. I reserve the right to aim to criticize any player who plays for the club I love.

    Please feel free to point out where you're referenced by name in this post, unless you think you're racist and therefore I must have been talking about you?

    Resort to name calling when you're losing, true sign of intelligence there. What have I said in this post that's a lie? Did I imagine those observations during the game or is it just that you refused to acknowledge them then and don't like it now that I've pointed them out? Everything in that post either happened or is an opinion, I'd love to know where the lies are Maybe he lost the ball more than once but the only thing that springs to mind is the mix up he had where he tried to pass it first time to either Tootle or one of the midfielders and they weren't on the same wavelength, if that's your complaint with that "joke of a post" and worthy of being called a d*ck then you're kind of a lost cause
