Oh dear.Apparently, the judge didn’t hear clearly what John Terry said in reference to being sent off four times in his career so said ‘Can you say, please, four times?’ to which England’s Brave Lion responded with:
‘Please, please, please, please.’

John Terry, (not a) racist (but still) an idiot...

There must be something wrong as the link to the guilty verdict isn't showing on my phone.
Maybe this is John Terrys fault as well. I blame him for all this o2 carry on.

The perception when i read the details was that Ferdinand had repeatedly been abusing Terry and had chased him half way round the park repeating it. The prosecution were trying to suggest Terry had lost in when in fact it looked as though Ferdinand was the one out of control at that stage.
If you think that's the case it's hard to give much credence to whatever Ferdinand claims was said following it.
More to it than that but yes, thought this was likely.

Just seen this on Twitter though which sums it up pretty well;
"A day of integrity for Scottish football and a day of shame for the game in England."

I hate the guy by the way but this looks like it might be the right legal verdict from what has been presented.

The case sounded like a joke to me, a waste of money, and in actual fact wouldn't have been in court if 'Joe Soap' had been the accused.
No time for Terry or for racism but Anton Ferdinand... not sure about him at all- very arrogant.

The case seemed pretty weak - I would think in most circumstances involving a member of the public, it wouldn't have got to court.
Terry is a total ned but this verdict seems just.

You have to remember here, Ferdinand never accused Terry of anything, it was a fan who reported it to the police, hence why he got off with it.

Fwiw it doesn't matter if the person who is the subject of the abuse complains with racially aggravated conduct it's any person who deems it to be (words to that effect in scots law)
Trial by media. O and regardless if what AF has said Terry cannot and should not use that sort of derogatory remark ENDOF.

Nobody seems to have been able to prove otherwise, hence the verdict.
So, he's not just got off with it, it's unclear whether he has done anyhting to get off with in the first place.

Many years ago I had a season ticket in the old main stand and sat just behind Tommy Preston when this guy in front of his kid was giving wee Russell some abuse calling him a spear chucked and telling him to chase after coconuts as it would make him quicker.
I could only stomach that for 2 games and asked a steward to intervene. Got blank looks and the guy kept at it. I finally, against my better judgement got up and told the guy to shut up and to stop making those comments.... 4 guys, all older stood up told me to mind my own business and said we could sort it outside.... Where I would get stabbed.
The guy ended up getting down with a breach with a racist aggravation attached.
Funny when we got outside after the match and I was standing next to ma 6ft 4 nutter of s brother that nobody said anything o apart from the cops who lifted the guy.
Point being regardless of what is said there is no excuse to make those sort of comments.
If I had been AF I wouldn't if said anything just popped him one on the fly in the tunnel.
Sorry fur rant
