I remember one story of when John Barnes first went to Liverpool. He was sitting in a room with some white players when some one bought them a drink but there was no drink for John Barnes, so he looked up and looked around him then he looked at the woman who bought in the drinks and said "Whats the matter, am I black or something?" I think he was Liverpools first black player and he went on to become one of there best ever players. He also rapped in one of the best world cup songs ever 'World in Motion' by New Order
