Anyone offended by this comment shouldn't listen to the twelfth man series. Ridiculous.

Pathetic.
Good article and very true.
However, wasn't it the Daily Mail that lead the storm over the 'Brand/Ross'gate saga?
Hoddle should not have needed to apologise as he did nothing wrong. I'd be interested to know the numbers of people that believed he should. 16.4% believe an apology was needed, from the Guardian poll.
maybe some chink or jap complained
Now That's What I Call Racism.
I call my wife a NIP all the time, even though she's clearly a CHINK. She finds it funny fortunately, and she calls me Evil Englishman & complains about our history of rape & torture - I find that quite funny. In Ricky Gervais film Ghost Town he did a whole scene taking this piss out of Chinese names, & no one made a fuss. My wife found it funny. It seems to me that people who moan & whine aren't the people they think should be offended
What's the matter with some people?
er, yeah, and do it so someone else's wife? You'd probably get slapped.
