    If you look back I didn't jump on it and shout 'racist'. I made a few random off-topic posts then started answering some **** claiming he wasn't being racist.

    And claiming GC people are dumb is a bit rich coming from you, you thick scrotumless **** <ok>

    'Foreign people' are a race now, are they? And I must have missed Huth's admission of the post being racist, I just remember him saying that he hates 'every ****' and has been racist, said nothing about this thread.

    I never mentioned you in particular, you seem to think that I contrive every Donald F*ck post in some anti-Toby conspiracy. I was talking in general terms. But yes good one with the recycled scrotum gag, really good cuss there my man.

    is racism not often born out of ignorance?

    you sound like a psychology/sociology student looking for a debate. and in all fairness some of what you raise is interesting in context of race and racism being the debate/discussion

    however using it to justify what huth was saying is frankly ridicilous. he not only made the comment but reinforced it when asked what he meant

    i dont argue that maybe he thought it was clever or bravado or whatever

    but like the kid who shouts 'paki' because his mates were but liked the victim, its still racist

    How old are you, Toby?

    Did you get into football around the time of Soccer AM and all seater stadia?

    Let me tell you something, kid. Once upon a time it was accepted that football was one place where grown men could let off steam and let rip in ways that might be considered unacceptable in the politer sections of society.

    Then it became fashionable to try to impose a dinner party-style etiquette on the pie-eating masses at the match. This nonsense seems to have been accepted as standard for internet forums.

    Now people are feigning mock outrage at Huth's lamentable wind ups.

    Was anyone genuinely offended by the original corner shop comment? I didn't give a ****.

    So Huth doesn't like Paki's? Big deal. Why do we have to be shocked by this and try and show him the error of his ways?

    Good God <doh>

    ps The "good old days" when it was okay to sing racist songs and do monkey chants were okay because you weren't on the receiving end.

    No doubt you'll tell us your black now or have black friends.

    Yep, but they should nonetheless not be conflated.

    ****ing hell, God help me if I ever get interested in that ****e.

    He talked about 'foreign people' who aren't a race. I'm not justifying anything he said at all, just saying it's not racist and by extension saying that the people getting all wound up about it need to take a big chill pill because it's a 10-a-penny ignorant wind-up comment which has (due to their angered responses) succeeded.

    As I said to Donald ****face, I didn't care about Huth's thread. It's only when DFF started to claim that it wasn't racist that I got involved. I ignore Huth most of the time, I just don't like idiots like DFF thinking they're right on a subject like this when they obviously aren't

    As for the age thing, I'm 26 and I've heard a lot worse. I worked as a security guard for ****'s sake, but I'll never stand by when there's a **** trying to justify racism, same as most other prejudices. Just because it used to be socially acceptable doesn't mean I'll just stand by and let it happen.

    It just highlights the ignorance of both of you when many of the shops are owned by people of Indian and Bangladeshi extraction.

    Who did you think he was talking about then?

    The cornershop stereotype is a pakistani one.

    Where have i stated that i don't like pakistan people?

    If i did not like them, why would i use there taxi service most days,also my favourite foods are chinese & indian, if i was such a ****ing racist, why would i give them some of my hard earned?

    FFS all i do is take the piss on here, when the footy season starts again i will not give 2 flying ****s about GC, this is just something to pass the time, get a ****ing grip people & get a ****ing sense of humour.

    Yes, but it is used as a generalisation. That, and other reasons, is why it is considered offensive.

    Why is it threads about Racism and Sectarianism always get the most posts? Huth must be laughing into his White Lightening the old cad. As someone said above, OK he doesn't like P___s. Why really gives a monkeys?

    race = A group of people united or classified together on the basis of common history, nationality, or geographic distribution

    I beg to differ

    and rationalising it is a form of justifying it and the irony is that that is what has probably increased the comments
