The FA must have a good reason for taking the England captaincy away from UK footballer John Terry. They have done this before the court case has begun. He is accused of racial abuse during a football match.

They must have watched the video which stands as evidence. Whatever, their reason I agree with the decision.It is high time that there is an end to racism. The very truth is that Antony Ferdinand did not bring the case to the court but the police. This proves that this appears to be a definite case of racism.

The problem with John Terry, who has a long list of all sorts of offences against him, is in many ways, that he got away with too much and too often. He must have the biggest Angel in the Universe watching over him.

I am not being vindictive but why should there be one law for John Terry and another for other people? A player from Liverpool received an eight match ban for racists remarks. Although an eight match ban may seem a bit over the top if it cuts these stupid, ignorant racists remarks, so be it.

The other surprise is that Mr Capello, the current England manager, is standing up for John Terry. Let's not forget in the last World Cup that John Terry played up hell and mainly against Mr Capello.The reason was that Fabio Capello did not allow wild women and booze in the players camp. John Terry even tried to hold a press conference though he was not the captain of the English Team. It was Gerrard.

By the looks of it John Terry was determined to have Mr Capello out. A statement was made that they were bored. For goodness sake, there is World Cup games to be faced. Concentrate on that and you would not have been bored. The pressure mounted up so much that in the end Mr Capello allowed them to have some beer.

There were calls for an English Manager. Yet, under English managers they have done no better. Mr Capello tried to make them stay focus and gave them the best possible opportunities to get further in the qualifier but all they were interested in was booze and wild women. Some of the players must be thinking it is a holiday and not work.

Is that what he public pays these more than overpaid wages for?

Mr Erikson let their wives come and they went wild but in spite of it he wasn't good enough for them either. So, what do these super stars want?  Apart from a few most of the team are determined to play a good game and win for England but there are some who think that  they put on the England shirt, parading in front of the press, have a good holiday andthen  just play enough to get by.

All this mess must have unsettled the players and especially as a team. Surely it must have been one of the factors as to why England was out in the first round. Well, John Terry grow-up and face it. All your little episodes won't do and slowly you are coming to the end of it.
