As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
Radford sometimes a person being a Gooner doesnt exempt them from being a *word censored* you know. I have zero problems with fans shouting/chanting abuse at opposition players as long as it isnt racist and any *word censored* that stoops that low should be fcuked out of the club on the spot I know that the world has sometimes gone too pc/sanatised but racism should not be tolerated in any guise and I am shocked that you would think otherwise

radford has to disagree and that many an Arsenal fan have used terms that radford would not use. but that does not make them racists
to label someone a racist because they use terms we find abhorrent is too easy.
a racist is an ingrained attiutude that prevents the advancement of peoples that are not the same as you.
language while not pleasent on its own does not make you a racist there needs to be more than that.

radford found the images out of order but did not ask for the people involved to be banned

Sorry - you are wrong there. Verbal racism is just the physical expression of racist beliefs. No one calls another person a racist term and isn't racist. That's too easy a cop out. If a non-racist person is aware that a certain term is accepted culturally and morally as racist they will avoid using that term. The person that uses that term is a racist.
