Peter Beardsley

[wittonwarrior]

Great footballer but obviously got educated the scouse way in the 80’s / early 90’s. Plus a dose of Newcastle and that’s what you get. Couldn’t think of 3 more racist clubs other than Chelsea or Leeds.

How did he get away with it for so long though

He wasn't racist until he moved to Liverpool at the age of 26 and they taught him to be? Obviously. No ignorant prejudice in that opinion at all. Dear me.

I moved to Liverpool in 81 and I'm still not a racist, lucky or what.....

This latest Beardsley incident involves alleged racism but hasn't he already been in trouble in the past for bullying the young players he was in charge of?

I suspect he won't be telling stories on Athletico Mince anymore. I'm going to miss that sad bastard.

Plenty of time at home to make his wife’s poachies

The real story here is that Beardsley finally met someone who can actually understand what he says.

I can't remember where I heard this but I believe the reason John Barnes did the rap on World In Motion was not because they thought he could rap but because the only other player who turned up in time for that particular recording session was Peter Beardsley.

That's a bit like saying 'Jimmy Saville; great DJ shame he was a bit of a paedo'.

Beardsley has been banned from football until the end of April, which seems a rather soft punishment. However the stigma will stay with him for a long time.

I think I saw an interview with John Barnes in a New Order documentary where he said it was a choice between him and Des Walker because the only others to turn up were Beardsley, Gazza and Waddle.

Ah, yes, I think that's what it was. I knew there was an issue with thick Geordie accents. Thanks, I knew I'd heard it somewhere.
