    BBC are reporting an "offensive" fanzine was being sold by "ManU" fans outside the ground before being confiscated... what's THAT all about?

    I think we should claim it was Liverpool fans pretending to be Man Utd fans who handed these copies out.

    That's what the scousers would do if they were in this situation.

    Hmm. Not good. So we have a racist row between Evra and Suarez, and now a fanzine starts dragging the Klu Klux Klan into it and associating it with OUR club. Feking ejits.

    I don't think racism is a no-go area, and despite being a Watford fan I'd point out John Barnes' infamous Christmas party appearance as an example.

    But there's a time and a place for edgy humour. An already tense, heavily policed match which (allegations of?) racism has made worse is not that time or place.

    Spot on , end of the day neither team are helping the situation at the moment with the actions today , regardless of their reasoning behind their actions. If either side was genuinely acting with dignity then they would have just played it as a regular game of football without the childish acts.

    This is getting out of hand.

    By rights a Liverpool fan could say a Utd fan wearing a "19" t-shirt is offensive, as it could be construded as mocking Liverpool fans and not just celebrating the number of title wins.

    Somebody will find something offensive for the sake of it.

    The program mask was funny as ****. When you have a racist player, a manger who seems to accept it and a bunch of dumb fans who think he didnt do it, do not expect people to not take the piss out of you.
