"As well"


The constitution establishes a secular state and provides for freedom of religion, and the government largely respects this right.[44]


It's equally accepted, even if it is in the minority. I.e, you will find Malian Christians.

I remember having a similar argument about Turkey being both Muslim and Christian on here a while back.

I once heard Jewell talking about Ellington and how he totally lost his way after converting. Wasn't knocking him, just said football was no longer his priority.

In my experience of things some of the Muslim players are only Muslim when is suits them, though footballers and morals are not an easy combination. Though there are some who do great work.

Paulo Di Canio was an openly fascist follower of a pretty nasty politician and who was the Rangers keeper who was an open supporter of one of the nut job Northern irish terrorist drug dealer 'politicians' ?

So it wouldn;t be the first time a footballer with dodgy political ideas played at a decent level.

soggy biscuit Massive LOL @ Jay.

In addition - sh*tloads of Muslim players in the Premier League, I posted an article a while back about many of them deal with playing during Ramadan.


Or how they failed to deal with it in Sully Muntari's case!

That's the same with pretty much any person who follows a religion isn't it? They all take the bits that suit them and their lifestyle.

As for King converting, if he's still banged up it may well be for the simple reason that the Mussa's get better food.

I think the article I posted was probably off the back of Muntari-Ramadan-gate

Mourinho really knows how to make friends eh
