    It is racist,cant see how it cannot be. Think he meant it only to be funny, but his real opinions on colour came out.

    It was a racist joke and why I likened the Israeli team to a similar comment. It was a racist joke by someone who sways some power in the world commerce market. Its is a joke he would sack someone for. He has now admitted he was wrong, stated that he deleted the post and was sorry. That was because he knew he couldn’t wrangle our of it as it was racist.
    As for giving you some stick, you are pretty thick skinned and cute enough with opinion. Also my da still says darky and I have o correct him because he knows no better. But he is now aware I find it distasteful and offensive toward others.

    Btw his post didn’t offend me as it was not aimed at my culture or people. The world can be an over sensitive place but someone like him would be first to highlight bigotry toward Jews. Don’t want to go back to Alf Garnet talking about nig nogs.

    He should be made to go into the Senegalese dressing room and tell the joke in front of the team. Bet he'd realise how racist it is then.

    These guys scrubbed up well after spending the day doing shoddy tarmacadam work and conning little old ladies.

    So that's what they look like with the balaclavas off and the blood washed from their hands.

    Would these jokes cause uproar in Ireland(excluding those who support the bigots)?
