If that is what you wish to highlight - go ahead.
Perhaps there are some out there that feel they need to address the balance in terms of the few privileged black kids v's many white. Mebbe Stormzy feels strongly about that and who can blame him.

So you we would be OK if Ed Sheeron

Corrupt and an old boys club.
But football comes from grass routs.
Does not matter how wealthy your parents are or who you know. If your not good enough you will not last.
The Old Boys club is an entirely different can of fish.
You have just contradicted yourself in true notchy style.
I wonder how long this topic will survive, given the sudden disappearance of the 'organ donor' discussion due to his embarrassment over his contradictory posts?
