Why Do Racists Think That They Can Get Away With It?
It’s it a bit arrogant to think that people around you wouldn’t be offended?

It’s like this man fell out of a space ship that came from 1972.
But seriously - why would someone shout this out, unless they were really drunk or high?

In asking that question, you are assuming that any racist has the mental capacity to think beyond their immediate knee-jerk reactions, and to care what other people think about them, and what they say.
In both instances, you are elevating the standard racist to levels which he can never achieve, since both require a level of intelligence and empathy of which he is incapable.
As pointed out, this kind of nasty behaviour pervades every football match, I am unsure why this particular instance has been singled out for coverage.
That is not for one moment to condone or excuse what appears to have gone on - merely to wonder why this incident is being analysed and debated.

I think this one has reached the papers because the pictures were so good. A bit like that goalkeeper who was done for eating a pie during a match a few years ago.
And I suppose there’s the shock value. Most people who do not go to games would assume that this didn’t exist any more.
And then there’s the man himself....he doesn’t look like the ‘classic football racist’ (if there ever was one).
