Is that unconscious bias or accuracy? Black athletes are often physically superior to white athletes. I’d guess it’s why the majority of sprinters are black and there are far more black than white footballers per head of population. Same could be applied to other sports to an extent like basketball and boxing. |  | |  |

How would you describe leon, as physical and explosive or maybe an intellegent footballer.
I guess commentators will have to stop using the words brave and mental when goalkeepers dive at forwards feet in case it upsets cowards. | |

I’m not certain getting skin colour data off football manager is an overly scientific way of going about it. Wayne Routledge was white with blonde hair for quite a few years on there. |  |

Yeah it depends on the individual. For example if Man City were playing Wolves I imagine all of us would describe Silva and De Bruyne as intelligent whilst Traore would perpetually be described as pacey and powerful. It’s just the type of players they are. There’s no unconscious bias there. It’s an observation that any football fan would make.
It seems like a very flawed study. | |

Next they will claim there is racial bias in our Olympic cycling teams? Even world heavy weight boxing is biased . There have been very few white heavy weight boxing champions since the war. | |

You one of those chaps that find people describing Yaya Toure as ‘powerful’ or Virgil van Dyke as ‘athletic’ offensive then? | | | |

Nope, extensive hours have been put into this by experts, I'm inclined to take their word and not the "know better" brigade on here, simple really | |

The only quotes on there are from Jason Lee. As far as I can see, there’s nothing regarding bias from any expert who has put extensive hours in, they’ve simply presented facts from statistical analysis and the findings were commentators used adjectives like power and pace more often when describing black players than white.
That’s not subconscious racism, that’s more often than not accurate. Black athletes are often physically superior, hence the comparisons to sports like basketball, boxing and sprinting. | | | |
