She’s 83 and from another age. You knew what she wanted to know - yes she was tactless and highly insensitive but you then allowed her to go on questioning. You’ve also revealed her identity - altho claiming not to want it to be personal.

As the black population of the country is under 4% it’s not surprising .. unless you’re comparing it to the men, where black players are proportionately over-represented. The simple conclusion must be that they are choosing the best regardless of colour - which is correct.

Hospital visits are allowed.
