What a shame that this has blown up on the eve of a big game (yet again) When was the mag published? This morning?
What has that got to do with it? Do you think they have saved complaining about a racist comment until today? And even if they have, do you think it will have any impact whatsoever on management, players or fans?
Who knows? Wouldn't have it as bog paper, personally. How do you feel about us Yorkshire folk being denigrated as 'sheep shaggers'? How do you feel when Swansea and Cardiff fans get called 'sheep shaggers'?
Oh is this a big story on radio humberside or something ? I mean he was wrong , but really it's hardly big news is it
I would whole heartedly implore people not to sing "We want the lying camel shagger out" tomorrow. That would not be OK....................
1) It's unfortunate timing (yet again) 2) Don't know. Do you? 3) It will cast an appalling gloomy shroud over the stadium tomorrow. Possibly. On the other hand if it all has no impact on anyone, why bother reporting it?
I wonder if the person who reported this takes equal offence at square head sausage eaters, or garlic breath surrender monkeys, or perhaps he has the sense of humour of a Belgian. Of all the problems in the world at present, this is as insignificant as an Eskimos knob in midwinter.
In a nutshell yes. Now you'll get stewey and others trying to make out you're precious and a snowflake etcetc
It's not racist , but it is in bad taste . Could end up being a bit of an own goal by Tenfoot Tiger though .
Looks like calling someone a liar or claiming someone indulges in bestiality is 'cool', though. Just read the BBC article about all this crap, and it claims the terms 'sand licker' and 'pyramid trotter' were used. WTF?!?!?! Nonsensical ramblings of a booze-addled buffoon. Not a good day for HCFC with the David Yip incident and now this.

Racism (n) - 1. Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. 1.1 The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. Camels, Egypt... the suggestion that shagging a camel is a bad thing. Same as somebody using the term 'gay' to describe something bad. Unless the writer of the article is willing to come out and say that shagging camels is 100% a compliment and he meant it endearingly, he's being racist because he's basically saying 'they do that and we don't and it's something to be put down for'.
