[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1060224, member: 72977"] You know how when people speak to the media and it doesn't make things better... [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/59182067[/URL] Honestly some of the things here beggar belief. [I]Hutton admitted the club had offered Ballance a new three-year contract after the internal investigation found he used racist language. [/I]How do you offer a new contract to someone who admits racially abusing someone? [I]Outgoing Yorkshire chairman Roger Hutton says there is no-one at the club he would "personally consider racist" but admitted its culture is "locked in the past"[/I]. So racial abuse does not make you racist, just stuck in the past? How can they not have known what they were doing was racist and if the culture of the club was one in the past that allowed this to happen, then that does suggest the club was institutionally racist, because it's whole organisation, not individuals in isolation. [I]Thinks the club should "look forward, not back" in terms of reappointing former chairman Colin Graves.[/I] So the solution is to appointed the previous chairman, who was chairman between 2012-2015 when this was happening. How the **** is that moving forwards? [/QUOTE]
