The tournament has reached the round of 16, so it's definitely time for a dedicated thread.

FC Copenhagen 0 Chelsea 2

FC COPENHAGEN:

Started: 8 Whites (2 Danes), 2 blacks, 1 mestizo
Finished: 7 Whites (2 Danes), 3 blacks, 1 mestizo

CHELSEA:

Started: 5 Whites (2 Englishmen), 6 blacks
Finished: Unchanged ratio

Lyon 1 Real Madrid 1

OLYMPIQUE LYONNAIS:

Started: 8 Whites (4 Frenchmen), 3 blacks
Finished: 8 Whites (5 Frenchmen), 3 blacks

REAL MADRID:

Started: 6 Whites (4 Spaniards), 2 blacks, 1 mestizo, 1 Turk, 1 half-Tunisian
Finished: 6 Whites (4 Spaniards), 3 blacks, 1 mestizo, 1 Berber

Contrary to what many people may imagine, Lyon fielded a "whiter" team than Real Madrid (and Chelsea, for that matter...). But Lyon's goal was scored by a black striker, Bafetimbi Gomis, so another suitably heroic black "matchwinner" turns up in all of the photos:

Themaleficentnear-omnipresence of the black strikerpays dividends for the anti-White fellows yet again. Lyon's eight White players are conveniently consigned to the shadow of this constipated-looking sweat monster...

don't be too pesimistic Rebaljo.There are teams that look like basketball like Marseille, Rennes but european league is still like 70% white and will stay like this .For me that is white enough.
For me as long as whites are majority is is great.The only reason I don't want whites to be the minority is becuase it makes whites look like fools and their is no reason for this becuase the best players are white.

that white would be seen as fools you can see from basketball, spinting sports like that are always mentioned to say whites aren't great athletes.Even if whites would doninate 99% of sports the 1 % is mentioned and used to say whites aren't good.If whites would doninate every sport people would say that is just becuase whites play it, have money etc.

This is very difficult to change.

Waterbed - I guess that our levels of tolerance differ, as I'd prefer to see all-White teams throughout Europe. But I'm an admittedly extreme case in any company

.

The problem is that as a consequence of the established non-Whiteelement in Europe coupled with continuing non-White immigration, we are witnessing gradually increasing numbers of blacks, Arabs and Turks involved in football. More importantly, the European-born non-Whitepresence is nowbeing felt in leagues which have hitherto generally been limited to non-White "imports".

F.C. Copehagen, for instance, brought on the 17-year old Copenhagen-born black striker Kenneth Zohore for the last three minutes in the midweek match against Chelsea. Seems harmless enough? But Zohore shall probably progress to being a regular in either Danish or other European clubs. He has already made appearances for Denmark at U-17 and U19 levels.How many more Zohores are there, or will there be,throughout Scandinavia in the next few years?

A secondexample is Anderlecht's Romelu Lukaku. Born in Antwerp, he is another 17-year old striker who already has a few senior Belgian caps. European football is unfortunately slowly becoming "darker" by the season, especially when one looks at the number of blacks being "developed"in youthsystems and at the non-White squad players throughout the continent...

I Understand you but I don't think soccer will get much darker.
Youth teams are always darker then the senior level.
But I still think for example in the dutch league you have to be less good to come to the top when you're non white.(myabe just because you're non white in holland you get noticed easier when you play good becuase most other players are white except when you live in some big citys)
I didn't make the stats as nice as you but just on a paper I wrote the starting line ups and counted the amount of dutch players(dutch passport) and calculated on which place the team of the player is and what the budget of the club was and toke the modus .I just dutch players as a whole the average stays with his team on 11.2 place with 24.5 million budget.I then pick out just the whites dutch and their modus was 10.2 place with 23 million butget average .If you take in 30%( 1.5/0.3 +23) dutch paspport guys is non white in the league then you can calculate the modus for them is around 11.5 place with 28.5 million budget.I toke just the modus for the league place becuase it is like 2 times less work.I don't have the exacly stats with me but it was close to this maybe the 28 million was 28.4 or 28.5.Probabaly non white dutch are 35-40% overrepresentated for their price to Quality.

this means whites are great becuase some arab groups are 6% of dutch poplation but like 2times more(13%in soccer(amateurs) but still the league should be like 80% whites. Arabs /berbers/turks are 7.7 of the league.Blacks are relatively the same amount as whites in soccer.6%youth is black or so soccer amaturs too and socer pro's 18%
+-
to make it to the dutch highest league around 1/1000 blacks
1/3000 whites
1/5000 arabs
1/6000( indos most are 1/2 white or 3/4 white with indonesian)

1/20000 / south asian east asian( mostly a few in 10 years)



whites are under representated so have to be probably like 1/2000.
blacks should still be a bit overrpesentated maybe because most teams want speed or to bring speed late in the game and to be fair blacks/mullatos are like 50% of the fastest players top list of most them grewing up in Europe.so thery are like 5% of west european popuation 15% in soccer ( shoud be 10 or so) and 50% of the fast players.But whites can compensate it mostly with being allround athletic.You also often see that benches are more black the the starting (best 11 players).I think whites should be 2nd place to make it to the pro's but make it to the startinmg line up more close raltively.

Waterbed - good posts, mate. I looked at the website which calculated the players' speed. I'd be curious to see how the likes of Grzegorz Lato, Claudio Caniggia, Andrei Kanchelskis and Marc Overmars, for example,stack up...

The concentration of non-Whites in major cities and the resultant "White flight" phenomenon is a crucial element in the "darkening" of European football. The fact that blacks and Arabs are becoming ever more numerous in the largest urban centres, from which most of the top division clubs in any country hail, means that their numbers inevitably begin to be reflected in the composition of the local football teams at all levels, both amateur and professional.

As we all know, young non-Whites (especially blacks and Muslims) are far more likely to be involved in delinquent behaviour than young Whites and thus come to the attention of the authorities, who traditionally believe that the pursuit of sports shall provide such "disaffected youth" with a more wholesome attitude towards life (and all of that other politically-correct cobblers...). Non-Whites are consequently eagerly funnelled into football programs which are more often than not affiliated with professional or semi-professional clubs. Taken with the fact that blacks are overwhelmingly far from academically gifted or inclined, not too keen on obtaining employment, and are constantly told that they are "natural sportsmen" there is a subsequent high non-White participation level in football.

This disproportionately high non-White presence in youth sides in turn discourages many White kids from taking part due to the typical black and Muslim practice of overt racism and violence towards Whites, which is almost always swept under the carpet by officials. Look at the situation within the non-White dominated "French" team during the last World Cup, or the factional (that is, racial) ructions within Your own national team precipitated by blacksduring the era of Seedorf, Davids, Kluivert, Winter, Bogarde, Reiziger, van Hooijdonk, and Hasselbaink. This shall occur more frequently as the numbers of non-Whites involved in the game grows, especially when they become increasinglyinvolved in coaching roles. Non-White coaches shall favour their own people, which will cull White participation even further at all levels.

Despite what many people wish to believe, wherever there are lots of blacks and Muslims, Whites generally leave, be it real estate, sporting clubs, or nightspots. That's just how it goes. If, on top of all this,one adds the blatant agendas which actively promote non-Whites in the sporting arena at the expense of Whites, then the situation looks rather bleak.

I believe that we shall witness the "fruits" of these processes over the course of the current decade, when things will change for the worse faster than many people may expect, with European-born blacks, Arabs, and Turks, along with Albanians and Bosnian Muslims, becoming more prominent throughout western Europe, particularly in Scandinavia. In Sweden, the Syriac-founded, administered, and supported club Syrianska FC, whose playing staff is significantly Syriac, shall feature in the Allsvenskan (Swedish top division) for the first time after winning the Superettan (second division) last season. Just for a bit of trivia, Syrianska FC is from Sodertalje, the birthplace of Bjorn Borg, whose population these days is loaded with Syriacs and other Middle Eastern scum. Here is a link to their official first-team page:

Syrianska still has their Brazilian on the team, plus a Jamaican.Give me a break.

If Sweden had a club for Swedes it would be called "racist" and banned of course. Can't have that in your own country. They must allow themselves to be taken over by the 3rd worlders without a peep and apologize for being Swedish in Sweden.

Emmanuel Adebayor, who scored twice in Real's 4-0 victory against Tottenham, is claiming the chant from Spurs fans against him is racist.

The chant? "Your dad washes elephants, your mother's a whore."

If he doesn't like it, he should go back to Mali. I am so sick of these guys.

Fans also have chanted Arsene Wenger is a pedophile.

There was a great save by Van der Sar when he dove to his left and went horizontal. The announcers didn't use the word athletic.

Well, that's probably closer to a statement of fact
smiley2.gif
- that's if Adebayor actually knows who his father is, which is probably asking a great deal. After all,being African, there's a fair chance that he's the by-product of a particularly nasty variety of "war crime". Then again, that's pretty much the standard method of propagation amongst the, er, (what shall we call them?) Negroes...

But one aspect of the chant cannot possibly be taken seriously - namely, there is no chance of Adebayor'sstinking, buck-toothedbegetterwashing an elephant, for how could an elephant be washed by a species of animal which doesn't apparently possess the ability to wash itself?

Now, the breakdowns of the quarterfinal first legs...

Internazionale 2 Schalke 04 5

INTERNAZIONALE:

Started: 9 Whites (2 Italians*), 2 blacks *N.B. Thiago Motta is a naturalised Brazilian

MAN. UNITED:

Barcelona, Schalke and Real Madrid are essentially through to the semifinals following decisivevictories in the first legs - even if Internazionale were to win 3-0, for example,at Schalke they'd still lose on away goals...

The Manchester United - Chelsea tie remains in the balance, although I'd favour United to progress following their away win.

Here's another observation - each of the quarterfinalists started at least one Brazilian:

Internazionale: 2* (1 White, 1 black) *N.B. 3 if one counts Thiago Motta

Schalke: 1 (White)

Real Madrid: 2 (2 blacks)

Tottenham: 2 (1 black, 1 mestizo)

Barcelona: 2 (2 blacks)

Shakhtar: 4 (3 blacks, 1 mestizo)

Chelsea: 1 (black)

Manchester United: 1 (mestizo)

Looks as if Barcelona and Schalke are the teams to support here.

Chelsea's black dominated squad is so sad...remember when they had a media coined "far right" following in the 70s and 80s?

How things change...

Three English clubs featured in the quarterfinals but only managed to start5 Englishmen between them (Peter Crouch may or may not have started for Tottenham if he hadn't been suspended following the first leg...). Real Madrid and Barcelona, on the other hand, started a total of 10 Spaniards. Hmm, I wonder why Spain are the reigning world and European champions, while England are perennial underachievers?

The final shall be played tonight. Personally, I'm more interested in tomorrow night's English League One promotion final between Peterborough United (tremendous roar!) and Huddersfield Town.
smiley2.gif



Under "traditional" circumstances (i.e. no blacks), I'd be hoping for a United win but these days this so-called"English" club is guaranteed to field plenty of non-Whites (including an Asian, which, for me, is really beyond the pale). The last thing that football needs is a team full of blacks and a flat-faced Korean to lift the trophy.

On the other hand, I have always despised the left-associated Barcelona. Although they are by far the Whiter side and chock full of talent, I must admit that I cannot stomach their propensity for blatant diving:

[TUBE]H94f_Kb5Gn8[/TUBE]

Mute the sound on this next clip as it contains some sort of "rap" background "music".

[TUBE]M-km2lkpDg8&feature=related[/TUBE]

Forward to the1:25 mark to witness Sergio Busquets interrupt his theatrical writhing in order to squeeze in a quickpeek to see if his diving has resulted in an opposing player being sent off. Truly contemptible...Edited by: Rebajlo

Here's something else to ponder the next time You sink a Heineken or receive Your cable TV billing statement
smiley2.gif
:

Champions League final 'richest yet'

Winning the Uefa Champions League will be worth a record 126m euros (£109m; $178m) to the triumphant club, one of the competition's sponsors suggests.



Either Manchester United or Barcelona will net that sum by winning Saturday's final, according to Mastercard.


It comes as another sponsor, Heineken, has announced it has extended its contract with Uefa to sponsor the competition for a further three years.


It means its current deal will extend until the end of the 2014-15 season.Economic boost



The Mastercard report, by Professor Simon Chadwick of the sport business unit at Coventry University, says that the losing club in the final is still set to gain 73m euros.


The final match alone is now worth an estimated 369m euros, a rise of 17.5m euros on last year and an increase of 59m euros compared with the last time Manchester United and Barcelona met in the 2009 final.


London, which is hosting the game at Wembley, is expected to benefit to the tune of 52m euros as fans spend money at the stadium, on accommodation, and on food and drink.

The report says the estimation that this year's final will break all economic records was in large part down to the two finalists.


"While the UEFA Champions League is a strong brand in its own right, the nature and strength of the brand is clearly heavily influenced by its constituent parts - the participating clubs," said Professor Chadwick.


"This year's UEFA Champions League final has the perfect ingredients to drive economic activity - Europe's two biggest clubs playing in a city such as London."

Regardless of all the commercialism crap surrouding the game as a whole, it was an entertaining final, and one which cemented the status of the current Barcelona as "best of all time" in many peoples' minds.

Barcelona is predominently white, and play a brand of football that has never been seen before. They have turned away from the doctrine that modern players must be big and powerful..the top Barcelona players are short and not physically imposing at all. They thrive on pure skill and intelligence, and this is what we need more of in the modern game - more skill and less brutishness.

Messi was the man of the match, and if he keeps it up for another couple of seasons few will be able to argue that he has surpassed even the great Maradonna.

No less than half of Barcelona's players would get into a World 11 team, which is pretty amazing.
