Green Gotten

Have a gander at this:

"The media regulator, Ofcom, has censured BBC football commentator Alan Green for making an apparently racist remark during a Manchester United v Arsenal clash.
Referring to a dispute between the referee and United's Eric Djemba-Djemba, Green suggested the player was saying "me no cheat", prompting a Radio 5 Live listener to complain that it was inappropriate to suggest a black man was unable to speak grammatical English. The BBC conceded the remark was "ill-judged", but said it should be seen in the context of Green's commitment to eradicate racism in football." Source: The Guardian

Yet another example of a bloated ignoramus being allowed to spout his unsavory predudices on the BBC.
I was personally glad to see Barry Davis retire the other week, since I consider him the master of the casual racist remark, something he inexplicably got away with for years, aided and abetted by his cumbersome side-kick Trevor Brooking.
That pair constantly derided foreign players, made numerous "tribal" references to black players, and generally helped re-enforce dumb cultural stereotypes for the duration of their partnership ("cool" Scandinavians, "temperamental" Latins etc...)
What sticks in my craw about Green, the latest to be found out, is the fact that he is obviously Irish but supports England with all the fervor of a rabid cockney skinhead and if there's one thing I hate, it's a fat English/Irish bastard....
