You then say again that "it's happened at their own ground!" I ask again to provide evidence or some sort of report of him being racially abused at his own ground.
You then further minimize it by equating racial abuse to name calling and that it is far from unexpected when filming at a rival's grounds. You borderline on excusing it.
And no, it is NOT to be expected. See the youtube again. It was the first time in years he had suffered racial abuse.
Here's what I get from you. A guy complains of racial abuse.
1. Really? What's the big deal?
2. He must have misheard it.
3. He gets abuse from everyone (not racial) even some of his own fans so that makes it ok.
4. It's far from unexpected.
5. I'm going to now conclude that I don't want to discuss it (but that didn't stop you having a pop at me for bringing it up).
Just observations based on your postings. If you don't want to minimize it at all then ... don't minimize it at all when I bring the subject up.

Sure thing. Well I'm not sure what you're driving at here. My initial sentence on the topic is that it shouldn't be the main focus and its deplorable. I think that's strong enough language. You seem to want to pick apart everything I post on the topic on some lame attempt to construe me as supporting it, which is both asinine and offensive. So, it that is the angle you're taking here, just let me know and I can put you on ignore.
The fact is I said there were probably a few ignorant people there, and Robbie himself said it was the extreme minority. That doesn't excuse it, but let's not paint all of the supporters there as racists because there are a few who said bad things.
Some of my comments were about his complaints of poor security at WHL, and the fact that his own supporters a few weeks back were accosting him at the Emirates. I recognise that wasn't racial, but neither was his whole video.
