Excellent programme on iplayer at the moment about a testimonial match played in the late 70's where a team of black players played against a team of white players.
Reckon it would be a bit of an eye opener to anyone too young to remember how black players were treated back then.

Back in the day it was just accepted i lived through it without even realizing racism was so bad ,WBA created a three degrees poster with him Laurie Cunningham and Brendon Batson shown on it , they even arranged a English international black v white game , eeek .
Down the City we signed a cracking player called Clive Charles for WHU although no racism was involved it it the press did treat it as a specific event ,in a sought nice way .
just read Cass Pennant on why he turned into what he did
