Great so now we are going to get accusations all the time now from black players in attempts to get other players banned

"he looked at me in a racist way" etc

We need to stop inflating the issue to over the top levels. Its just another form of abuse and should be treated as such.

The other week Gareth Bale got a banana thrown at him, why was a massive deal not made of that? They were basically suggesting he looks like a monkey, no worse or better than saying a black man looks like monkey. Whats the difference?

But Bale actually does look like a monkey whereas as 99% of black men don't.

Racist - a person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior to others.

I bet 99% of racism claims do not fit into that definition. Calling someone a black cunt is no different that calling someone a fat bastard. Its just abuse, plain and simple and does not need labeling as anything more.
