He shouldn't have said it and was wrong to do so no matter how he really felt. However, he has apologised publicly, now let it go ffs.

If, as fans we're serious about the Kick Racism out of Football message, then surely it is incumbent on us to create a picket line outside the CG to show the watching world that Big Ron's presence at our club is not welcome.

What happened to forgive and forget? He said something really, really bad, but at the end of the day he's not the only one to have said it. People seem to have forgotten about Hoddle and he's still in the game :-))(

At the end of the day though Reg, many people in this world have said things that are hurtful to others. It's a horrible fact but very real. What makes us better people is to learn from these things and not repeat these mistakes. I respect Iffy that he has not let Ron's comment get the better of him.

That may be so sipi but its not just a one-off
Atkinson slammed for insulting Chinese (Agencies) Updated: 2005-01-25 09:40
China's top football players angrily denounced former Manchester United manager Ron Atkinson for alleged racist statements insulting Chinese women.
Atkinson apparently told an audience in Sheffield last Wednesday that "the Chinese people have the best contraception in the world - but I can't understand why there's so many of them because their women are so ugly."

Very similar to the Serbian....who Wilson signed at Barnsley....Georgi Hristov who said that women in the Yorkshire mining town were the ugliest in the world...and we know Serbia is not exactly a hotbed of multi culturalism.

Look if it bothered Iffy I would be bothered as well. Iffy appears not to be too affected by it (I hope this is the case and it isn't club politics). However people say things that are hurtful to me all of the time. I get on with it because that is the nature of my being. I know this is a more serious kettle of fish but at the end of the day if Iffy is ok then surely blowing this up could potentially make this worse.

bollocks to the lot of you.
everyone's wrong everyone's right.
you lot wouldn't bat an eyelid at i if that microphone hadnt happened to be on. but it was so you hate him?
i dont understand it meself. it happens life goes on, racism is such a taboo because whites get on their soapbox about it all the time.
besides the club could do with the cash i've got more important things to worry about, such as relegation.

Hoddle should really have a knighthood by now.
