@@skipdk Indeed. You look at young kids in their first couple of years at school, mixing, playing with other kids from different backgrounds, colours or creed, and there are no barriers. They just get on and have fun. Its as they grow up and see that adults get away with it, that they then start to emulate that behaviour, and the cycle goes on. Education is paramount in order to stop this, and sorting out social media.

Jordan Scott Absolutely, there is evidence out there that show discrimination is learned. I go to my son’s daycare everyday (here in Canada where we have people from all racial backgrounds) and I don’t see it among the kids. Disclosure: I don’t like the word race, it’s not a real thing and it doesn’t have a biological meaning. As you said, the word itself is programmed into our minds

@@TheBigKing0 I think when officials end the game and it's in the rule book, it's less of "oh you affected us," and more that football will systematically not tolerate racism. In that, I agree with Gary that there should be a consensus of how to proceed. For me, emptying stadiums, and if racism is repeated, banning teams is the only way to force rehabilitation.

No, I feel quite disappointed in Sterling. His stance has changed and the new statement seems extremely similar to Guardiola's response when he was asked the same question. If the players continue to ignore this problem, the authorities will do nothing to address this situation. Sadly, the best way to bring about any change is to hurt the organizations financially, and a whole team walking out is maybe the best way to do that.

I think walking off the pitch cancelling the game, replaying it with no fans in the stadium would be good, they can also look at points deduction, maybe 1 point deduction for racism and as someone mentioned below publicly shame those who do it, no point protecting them. The problem with what Raheem Sterling said is that when he said "try win the game to hurt them".. what if you don't win or a black player doesn't score? then it leaves those racists laughing even more.

It a criminal offence to commit a racial motivated crime (abuse, abh, gbh etc...) The law outside of the the football governing bodies should be punishing these people and clubs. But, we rarely hear of any such case. It's pathetic! Just pitiful fines, and partial stadium closures and matches played behind closed doors given out by football governing bodies and nothing from the criminal justice departments. The people who commit these crimes = SCUM The governing bodies who do little to punish the clubs for it = SCUM The criminal justice departments = SPINELESS

Great response from Gary who said Racism is wrong, that he once turned a blind eye to it, and that something should be done. Great insight. My view is that there are loads of black players in football now, yet only a certain few in the Premier League ever suffer it, and maybe that says something about the public perception of these players. Ashley Cole and Raheem Sterling get abuse, but not Paul Pogba, Fred or Andros Townsend. If you watch games in parts of Europe then there is more of a problem which gives me hope that the UK, despite Brexit and stories of intolerance, is not as bad as we think.

Paul Pogba was, reportedly, racially abused playing for France in a friendly against Russia in Moscow in 2018. Just because some black players don't go around telling you they've been abused doesn't mean they aren't. It just means that they're not saying anything, and very often they're not saying anything because they're afraid to. Sadly, your opinion is part of the problem. Accept that it happens to every black player, whether they've been public about their abuse or not, and help do something about it.

Being a white South African, having been brought up in a very racially charged environment and having witnessed and seen racism first hand and now being married to a Ghanaian woman... I am just as qualified to talk about racism than a black person would be and as such it HAS to be discussed by people with intelligence and morals, who are passionate enough to make a difference with this situation, no matter what skin colour they are. Gary Neville says things how they are, straight talking, no bs and speaks from a place of honesty and respect. The punishment NEEDS to be sufficient enough that nations will stop it. Education is the key. Your skin colour should not matter. YOU can make a difference on this matter. Not the next guy, her over there, that black person who has experienced racism first hand... You.
Very good responce be Gary, dont know what is meant by impassioned response?
He had to add in "you were on the bench" so sly
Season long stadium bans with games behind closed doors would be a good start . If they manage to find the individuals involved, they should be criminally charged where possible

Besides, this is a football show. Of course they are going to talk about racism only within football because it's in context for them.

If you're just talking about racism in general it won't be on the show because it's not relevant to what the show is about.

I love it when people speak truth with balls.
We live in a world that is confusing, intolerable, hateful and sometimes we don't understand why people act a certain way, but as person of colour we ourselves cannot allow these people to stop us from doing what we love - I love Sterling's response, walking away will embolden the racists. To shut them up is to play, to score, to win, to continue to do what you love and let them know what they say will only empower you to be better and do better.

I like how Sterling doesn't walk off the pitch like a coward and just continues to play, which is what you should do; however I disagree with all this attention brought-up about racism, it's not about racism, it's about the opposition fans trying to get into a players head and racism seems to be the only way they can do that. It's cowardly talking smack about players from the cover of a crowd but it's also cowardly to walk-off a pitch and cry about it when you know that when you become a professional footballer you'll have to deal with mental abuse.

FIFA, Uefa, the FA etc cannot stop racism . It is a societal issue that goes well beyond sport.
I think that the only way to deal with these issues is to initially (for those nation(s) whose fans are guilty of racially abusing players) have the home games of those nation(s) played behind closed doors. No fans in the ground/stadium at all. Then, if the fans from that country are continuing to racially abuse players, ban that country from competing in the next two or three tournaments (so a ban from a World Cup, a European Championships and a Euro Championship). Also, UEFA and FIFA need to get involved with the educational side in order to get people to understand that racism is not tolerated in today's world.
Truthfully this is a problem that will never be shoved. It’s peoples way of thinking that can stop racism.
Also how did one of the most hated players in the world (if your not a united fan!) turn into one of the most respected pundits in the world. Absolutely couldnt stand him as a player as Im an Arsenal fan but you can just see now hes just so passionate about football, respect!
Nice 1 Gary :)
Make the offending teams connected play in empty stadiums would be a start. And not just for a couple of games but for a significant number. That hits and sends a message to everyone; the players, the fans, the media, the top brass ect. It also adds to a financial punishment. Then, with all the cameras now at games, filter out the racists and ban them for life. You would also need an increasing ladder of consequences for any repeat offenders. More games in empty stadiums, larger club/team fines, suspensions or point deductions and the like.
good on ya gary
