My first encounter of racism in my life I was 9 years old, walking home from school and another pupils mum was shouting racial abuse at me in my face screaming at the top of her lungs in front of a lot of people. I continued walking home whilst crying my eyes out. I finally got home and my mum saw & came out of our house and immediately beat this woman up. My mum who was in her 40s at the time a white lady that had never fought in her life being forced the fight because her son was being racially abused in the street. My mum turned to alcohol not long after that. It wasn’t the last time I was racially abused either. I wholeheartedly get where Trevor is coming from.
I feel for you brother. What is strange to me the lack of empathy.
Who knows it feels it.......
I know of mum's who suffered horrendously during those times I have nothing but admiration for these lovely ladies who had to endure far worse than any podcast can express hopefully someone can do justice in a movie or book to illustrate how strong these beautiful mum's were in those dark ignorant times and can celebrate their legacy and do justice God bless 💖
I didn't experience anything remotelly like that until I lived in Southed on Sea aka the Toilet of the South East.
Scored the best bicycle kick ive ever witnessed for QPR
Yeah was worldy that one. No diggidy
💯
The only bicycle kick you’ve witnessed
@@Tricky181 it was an absolute worldy.
Was that at Loftus Road against Man U?
I moved to Blackpool in the 90s and used to
Go
And watch him play at Bloomfield road. I have vivid memories of him with those dreadlocks running down the wing.
He scored a last minute winner away at stoke in March 1993 when Bruce Grobbelaar was on loan for stoke. Stoke top of the league and hadn’t lost at home all season. Blackpool 5th from bottom and that goal ultimately kept Blackpool up. Great days.
Ben it wasn't intense....it was illuminating.....a thinking man is a rare beast but a thinking English man proud of his irish & Jamaican heritage is dangerous....almost subversive & revolutionary....in essence he's a real authentic honest MAN....thank you Trevor for sharing....loved to have met your mother....wish you well in life....
It was INTENSE for Ben as he's used to avoiding rancour and any form of discord.
Trevor is spot on.
The Jamie Carragher thing is laughable in comparison to how he's been treated. As with Joey Barton getting backing on a podcast and management opportunities.
We're talking about a winger who's played in a World Cup, being passed over on Talksport for someone who ended up at Billericay Town.
He'd be more worthy of being on Sky than Micah Richards for starters!
Easily, the best winger I've seen live for West Ham (sorry Lazaridis) and have met him a few times.
A genuinely nice bloke.

Ur coming sideways with a political view (raciest view)
@@frankiemustafa7698 I'm talking as a father to daughters. There's nothing racist about what I've said.
The problem is the lack of discussion without being labelled. I'm talking about two ex players who were both successful. So, why should they be treated differently?
It was you that made it about race.
Regardless of where in the world you are, so as long as one' doesn't question the authority of the establishment, they'll be "successful" in every area of their lives; especially in media. There's a narrative in media, individuals, and establishments that must fit into and follow the script. Individuals like Trevor are monitored, analysed, and acted upon accordingly by the firm. We have a deep-rooted problem in Britain that needs to be questioned, answered, and leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
I fully agree with Trevor Sinclair 100 percent. 💯💯
On what??????? Black people always play the race card
Excellent points made by Mr Sinclair. Racism is embedded in U.K. society. I just looked at comments on talk sport over the tweet and there’s very little understanding what it must have been like growing up as a black kid.
All the best to Trevor in his future. Top man!
Any type of discrimination is wrong talking about tweets how come you only mention racism any nothing else?
Trevor the convicted racist
Growing up as any colour or creed or gender is hard let's not make it a race issue too easy to play that card
@@frankiemustafa7698well he obviously felt strongly enough to make the tweet. Given he grew up in the 70s- 80s then it’s not hard to see why he did. Totally agree with what he says. Saying no need to play the race card to anyone who feels their experience of it is a bit poor to be honest.
You like racists then , weird guy
Very intelligent guy, really enjoyed this one. Would probably say he's one of the best guests there's been here so again well done Ben (hence why I've subscribed). Isn't afraid to tell it how it is and makes some great points, very few of which I can't agree with. And that bicycle kick, I just remember the height it was - incredible goal.
I’ve really enjoyed this 1 😊
Bit odd how jamie Carragher spits at kids nothing. Disagree with Trevor sinclair regarding certain things but he was treated harshly by talksport.
Not quite the same... Trevor was drink driving, hit a girl with his car, got arrested, pissed in the police car and supposedly called the police officer a 'white ****'. He was criminally charged for it.
He's also generally more controversial than someone like Carragher. When the queen died, he suggested that "no black or brown person should mourn her death as racism thrived under the Royal Family". Whilst I pretty much agree, I can see why Talksport and the BBC decided they'd rather not bother.
@@edmanning274 Not when he was with talksport im actually talking about the the Queen Tweet which got him fired.
@@Rivelino824 Ahh, well I'm no royalist, and I broadly agree with what he said... but I wouldn't say that if I was a public figure working for a broadcaster that exists because of advertising money. Clearly, it would piss off A LOT of people in the country. Talksport relies on ratings and advertiser money to exist... if you manage to piss off half the country (and decrease ratings) and make advertisers pull out because they don't want to be associated with you, you're kind of screwed.
@@edmanning274 I do agree no excuse for drink driving.
th-cam.com/video/2QI8xCpYLyo/w-d-xo.html Why Jamie Carragher is FUMING with Matt Le Tissier 😡
Cool bredda, I knew his did R.I.P. he used to have a sound system called frontline international bk in the day.❤
From Australia - thank you Trevor ❤ I don’t agree that the queen herself was racist but I understand the hurt caused by ‘the empire’ over the last 400 years. From an Aussie of Irish heritage with many indigenous friends and loved ones, sincerest best wishes.
💚💛Nicely put 🏴
Trevor Sinclair is a very priviliged person who has not suffered from "the empire" over the last 400 years. He hasn't been deprived of anything and has had every opportunity to succeed handed to him by my motherland, and he has taken it. Good for him. What is he actually crying about? Yet despite being having the kind of life many people of any race can only dream of, he feels the need to race-bait and cry about some victimhood he thinks he's experiencing, but actually isn't.
He's just a moron who doesn't think before he speaks. He tries to make everything about race so that he doesn't have to actually look at himself for whatever shortcomings he has. It's absolutely pathetic.
Good interview that…see a totally different side to what the mainstream feed you good guy Trevor
Scored the best overhead kick I've ever seen. Top player . And seems a cracking lad. Sound Celtic man. ☘️👍🏻
Thought you were a little like rabbit in the headlights Ben when the conversation went onto the heavier topics.
Personally I would have questioned him as to why he seemed to be taking out on the Queen when she had been instrumental in trying to move the monarchy and commonwealth forward from when it was an empire which was built on taking overcountries, slavery etc....
Backing independence of countries, opening herself to meet IRA heads who had murdered her relatives. The Queen was one to see the wrong doings of the past and kick start apologies and change.
Great informative interview 👏🏾👏🏾🫡 big up Trevor
Intense!!!!!!
shut up
Didn't he go, live and work and get paid incredibly well in Abu Dhabi tho for a Royal Family that has also built the foundations of their beautiful country almost largely from modern day slavery. It's absolutely hypocritical for a multimillionaire to sit there and openly slate one regime while collecting a lovely sum of an income from another Kingdom that is also guilty asf.
He talks about politics and the treatment of migrants in the UK, while he lived in a country got paid incredibly, that same countries treatment of migrants is also absolutely appalling. I think these multimillionaire former footballers should stay in their lane. I would much rather hear the actual opinions of a working class fella of Irish/ Jamaican etc descent talk about his experiences, because i guarantee you at no point in time they would have earnt a stack in the Emirates.
Well said ppl need to think B4 they speak it's fuck all to do with race colour...
@@daboi1663 I know someone just like that.
A former 7ft tall guy who's shrunk by at least 5 inches over the years, who looks like Will Smith, and is 1 day older than me, who has...
English, Irish, Scottish, Jamaican, and Chinese blood from his grandparents.
I don't know what his dad looked like, as his dad was either dead or lived elsewhere, however his mixed race mum had very pale skin with freckles, whereas his skin was much darker, as I've already said he looks like Will Smith.
One of his grandad's who I never saw (from what I can remember) was apparently like most Chinese men... Not much taller than 5ft according to my mum.
All his mates are or were White when I knew him.
I never saw him get racially abused at school or at home...
Yet I'm fairly sure when I used Facebook daily (7+ years ago) he would be one of the many Black people who complained about apparent racism, posting stories about racism on a daily/weekly basis.
Do I believe he's ever been racially abused? No, not really.
Would I believe him if he described an occasion when he was? Probably, as he was an honest guy.
Jamie Carragher spits at kids and apologises and all is sweet -no black man can get away with that 🤔
Carragher spat at her old fella and never even seen the kid.
Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story.
Sinclair is a wife beating, drunk driver who always plays the race card to divert away from all his sins.
And El Haj Deoff is called an animal for that
Andy gray got sacked for racism too.
Don't talk shit lol.
If carragher drunk drove then racially abused the copper, he would have been sacked.
That victim mentality ain't good for ya
The concept of whiteness have the victim mentality that why they resist the changes and a triggered by any who challenges that mindset that makes them feel safe
Carragher spat at an adult and not the kid don't let the truth get in the way of a good story as per usual
Sinclair is a drink driver, wife beating, racist and habitual liar.
Bring back Trevor everyones entitled to their own opinion
I am QPR Fan and I use to watch Trevor play for the club was great player and big respect.
Amazing chat, respect to you Mr Sinclair 👏👏👏
Top man well said Trevor, god bless you and good luck on your way forward!!
Rinsing the Arsenal defence,of course you did 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Totally agree
Compared to the things disgusting things Jamie Carragher has done is ridiculous how Sinclair has been treated
Facts, who spits at a father and daughter over banta
💯 agree...what that vile disgusting carragher did and got away with sums up the so called powers that be. 😤
@@josephh4999Who drives drunk?
@@VillaBoys123 jack grealish for one?!
@@josephh4999 Did he?
This is deep ❤️ it … the comment section really proves his right about racism
Totally agree.. see the comments sections whenever there is a story about Jon Jones or Izzy Adesanya.. shocking.. all down to colour
@@thesaintst1851 yeh Jon jones is all about colour, given everything he has done outside of the cage that’d wild. Izzy is a different story but defo weird what he was up to with his dog.
Very true
@thesaintst1851 maybe if izzy didn't openly use racial slurs and then cry about someone questioning his identity (something he did to whittaker) people wouldn't say stuff back to him. Same with sinclair not being racist yourself is a good way to avoid people saying racist things to you
How?
Love Trev I met him a few times when I worked at City and he was so down to earth and polite always said hello and even wished me and my girlfriend well with the baby. She came to pick me up from work one game and he came out and I said hello and he recognised me from working there and had a quick chat and he spoke to my partner, asked her name and touched her baby bump and wished us well. For a famous footballer he was just like any other normal bloke and was a decent player too always wish him well he won't remember this but we always will we're still together and that baby is now almost 17.
Can certainly understand what he's saying about the Queen, who bloody cares but can't keep playing the race card but i'm certainly not saying it doesn't happen. If your good enough and your face fits you're in, like Paul Ince said in his interview with Simon Jordan but John Barnes played the race card but he was pants as a coach/manager!!
He may have been pants as a manager but there are many white managers who are pants and get re-employed over and over again
@@whodoyouratemore So do black managers when they stick at it and not just quit and cry racism.
Watched so many pods….this is one of the best. Being a BBC (British Born Chinese) can resonate with some of the things.
All the best
Oh look, another victim.
And what?
Great interview 👍 I like trevor and his honesty shines through
Can relate totally understand him good guy
So does Trevor think it is unfair or racist to be sacked for getting done for drink driving pissing in a cop car and racially abusing a police officer?
one of the most interesting pods ive ever listened to. A lot of people love Trev and support him, he only speaks the truth.
No, he doesn't only speak the truth. He's just a race-baiting moron who has been given every opportunity to succeed in this country and has taken it. He's not a victim. He just doesn't know when to just shut up and keep his racist opinions to himself.
It’s like he’s interviewing himself Ben can hardly get a word in😕
You're a decent guy but your words on immigration don't sit well. It's ok for you because you are middle class now, but do your kids go to school where you grew up? Probably not... Do you have to worry about housing? .... probably not....
Exactly, he's priviliged. This country has given him every opportunity to succeed and he's done very well out of it, but he wants to sink himself into victimhood status instead. I have no time for it.
Where did you feel he was sinking into victimhood?@@FreshAlchemy
Quite sad that he seems a very bitter man but I can see where he’s coming from regarding the 70s n 80s
However his mistakes have nothing to do with his colour just bad choices.
Nice fella though
Respect to you Trevor 👏
Great interview ( the empires over)👍
Trevor is a throughly decent guy. 👍
Good interview but clearly uncomfortable when issues around race was spoken about.
TS has lost his job for being outspoken about some of the dark side of our history. It’s very bold and brave of him to do so and the result proves it’s still underlying. I think he’s a good broadcaster, shame he’s not in work.
He lost his job for race-baiting needlessly and crying racism when actually the society he's lashing out at has not deprived him of anything and has given him every opportunity to succeed in life. It's made him rich, but in his mind Trev is a poor little victim. Oh shut up.
Great interview. Get Trevor back on the screens!
Why?
@@FreshAlchemy Has experience at all levels of the game and always has interesting points.
Miss listening to Trev on talk sport huge loss to them, seems a top normal northern guy.
No loss whatsoever.
It was just a prank, people jumping on the bonnet of a car, no harm done. Ha ha. Ok Trevor.
TS has a backbone and anyone with a problem with him is spineless
So if you don't agree with him, you're spineless?
How can you have a backbone AND be spineless?
Trevor Sinclair is just a racist.
Frank Sinclair-top man
You know he's Trevor right?!
@@hcorem4lyf lol what do you think?
Trev, yer Angels heard Silver at Cardiff😂
💚💛Y.N.W.A.
Well done Trevor for speaking/calling it out! - hope we see/hear more from you very soon
Talksport are so two-faced - they sack TS for a personal tweet about an issue he felt strongly about - but keep that dinosaur Brazil - who I think is a rude misogynist who promotes a drinking & gambling culture but that's okay?! Come on!
This woke cancel culture we live in these days is totally ridiculous and not something I subscribe to.
Great point, well made 👏
Big up, Trev
❤❤❤❤love you bro!!!
Great episode...trev dropping knowledge.
Cracking player at QPR too.
What knowledge? Nebulous references to "slavereh", which he understands nothing about? Yeah, deep.
Seems to have a chip on his shoulder about being black. He hasn't actually been deprived of anything in his life and has had every opportunity to succeed in British society, which he's done, yet still he wants to play victim. I'm not a monarchist by any means but if you say racially divisive things in a derogatory way about a freshly deceased and (rightly or wrongly) much-revered national figurehead, then you can definitely expect a backlash, regardless of what race you are. It has nothing to do with Trevor's skin colour. In fact, Trevor is the one making it about skin colour. Suggesting that all people of any skin tone should all think or feel a certain way IS racism. So is making everything about race. Sinclair is just a privileged race-baiter who fully embraces victimhood culture and victimhood mentality.
He got arrested once for drink driving and cried racism, claiming he only got arrested because he was black, later was forced to admit that no, he was just arrested for drink driving, not for having dark skin. That incident says it all about Trevor Sinclair.
What a fantastic and correct comment thank God for someone who articulated it so well👍👏👏👏
He wasn't even the best Sinclair when he played. It was Frank and that says a lot.
He has got three kids at private schools that is a lifestyle choice not a necessity.
I think Trevor is the love child of Danny Mills and Joey Barton
You might be fully woke but I can inform you that:
A: Two men cannot actually produce children together.
B: Even if they could, how could two white men produce a black child?
Wish he signed for Arsenal bk in the day
Someone would say why not play for Ireland or Jamaica if your looking through your lens made you tweet what u tweeted. In my opinion it was brainless knowing what u know how black people in the media are treated. You had it once with the BBC so be smarter

Has trevor ever had counselling for grief ?
Nothing is your fault Trev, just blame everyone else pal 👍
Half way through this interview and I’m totally impressed by the interviewer and more impressed again by Trevor’s thoughtful response. His response seems sincere; took accountability for his actions.
Hope to see more of Trevor in the media and in football.
always amazes me thta carragher was caught on camera spitting at a little child, yet he's everywhere. I feel Trevor Sinclair has been shafted. btw i like carragher too, especially on stick to football and the cbs champions league shows, but its a disgrace trevor was sacked for speaking facts

What an absolute legend. He is so grounded. Somebody I grew up watching and his analysis was always on point. I hope he gets back into media soon. He is way better than the rubbish on the radio and tv now.
Sinclair always gagging to play the race victim card, I complained to TalkSport to have him sacked also. Carragher should be sacked as a parasite also
Hail Hail
He has no time for drink drivers, but he was done for drink driving so he has no time for himself, no time to wash piss or shit, he must stink, oh shit Trevor smells😂😂😂
Trevor, why did you delete that tweet, why didn`t you stand your ground and bring your point of view into open discussion?
I hate people who say they talk for all black people
Why?
Because its not the truth
The demise of Trevor Sinclair is proof that unless you forever know your place and are eternally grateful for the white man to give you a opportunity, your vulnerable. Shocked Ian Wright lasted so long
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Spot on
Ian wright's a gentleman.
Black people get fast tracked to top jobs in the media, not the opposite.
Trevor was just a shit pundit, drunk drove, and racially abused a copper when arrested.... whereas Ian wright's a legend.
Nothing about colour.
No wonder blacks FEEL suppressed if their whole world's about a skin colour. No1 cares mate it's 2024 lol
What about the likes of Keys, Gray, Atkinson, Le Tissier etc
Wright had to leave the BBC the first time around because they treated him like a Uncle Tom. It was only after he re established himself on other stations the BBC took him seriously
Your hired to talk about sport why do they have to think so highly of themselves that the public are interested in your political views??
He tweeted it on his personal twitter account not at work

Talksport employ people with no command of English and aren't very bright, No hara, Gabby, Ray Parlour etc
To make out England is a racist country is ridiculous, racism does exists all over the world between people , lying , stealing,playing a victim are other human traits
but that docent make it right...
But Trevor is a convicted racist
England is not racist today but growing up in Trevor's generation England was extremely racist 70s 80s and 90s supported the hideous apartheid era in South Africa, not forgetting the no go zone's of London and violence towards Asians or the national front we encountered in Eltham where you feared for your life coming home from school. Times have changed massively the country has got to be celebrated for it's massive progress and it's finally becoming united kingdom, histories important for the new generation not to make the same mistakes as the past education is important but not to dwell in victimhood but to remember never to return back to the dark old days of blind intolerance and that goes for all shade's of the equation..
