Fella, you're the man who was branding Fergie a racist last week for using the word "boy" when referring to Adebayor! Who's the victims?
I am not African, so I did not make my viewpoint from the perspective of a victim.
I know some lovely places in East Enfield. I would guarantee that you would you would not walk up to a local in that area and call him 'boy' Referring to an African man as a 'boy' is an insult. They didn't give slaves names, that is why they were referred to as 'boy'. We had this debate last week, mate.

The fan will rightly get a life ban, and Bellamy will, rightly, be banned too.
When a player normally goes on to the pitch, everyone is up in arms shouting "HE COULD HAVE HAD A KNIFE!". A City player pushes the scrote and then Ferdinand grabs Bellamy by the throat (don't worry Rio, you can try being the faux hero but I know a lot of United fans will always think of you as a mercenary and an idiot). Yet Bellamy is regarded as the villain
. By the letter of the law, Ferdinand should have been sent-off. He should receive a ban for violent conduct, but so should Evra for his headbut at Spurs last week.
