Santy. I started this thread with no desire or need for any kind of racial prejudice at all. I honestly did not know if Jon Walters is either black or white. I still don't know, and I am saying this hand on heart... To compare this topic to 1950's America, the KKK, apartheid, slavery, colonization, globalization, cheap labour or what ever the hell you may or may not have been inferring to, is simply not called for, and I do not appreciate your slight, joke or comment. I find your comment both wrong and sensationalist to accuse otherwise.Something spring to mind along the lines of pot... kettle... black... If you're confused by it then you're confused by it, there was nothing racist about it as it is merely a commentary on how it was then and a joke about someone clearly of one racial background being confused as potentially being with another.

One of the laydees at work tells me his eyes are blue therefore he's white. I think they're a more blue/green, which to me proves it, as I'd be a bit freaked out if I saw a black youth with blue/green eyes. ;D

Like his colour makes any difference to anything - pointless thread.

Just ask him to dance. That should answer the original question GD Or even ask him to jump, has he scored with his head yet ???

Like his colour makes any difference to anything - pointless thread. Why is this a pointless thread? Surely us discussing tactics is just as "pointless," it's not going to have any effect on anything. I think it's a decent thread actually, mainly thanks to your fantastic reply.

I love how there's a couple of folk shouting "why does his colour matter, man? We're all the same inside!", just so that they can try and look all "right-on" and ace, completely ignoring the context of the original post.

His middle name is Ronald which should shed some light on his ethnic background

Ok i think i've come up with an ideal test for him to prove it once and for all, without just asking him directly.
I'll arrange an interview for him, going on about his international debut, and ask 'you're a scouser, so why ireland?' then, he'll start going on about his roots, and i'll ask him how important he thinks they are. hopefully he'll say very.
Then, I'll get a spade and say 'dont suppose you fancy helping me out in my garden at all do you?'
If he is black, then he'll do it
If he isn't, and just a scouser, then he'll just nick me spade
