Aragones NOT a racist afterall

[uni_don]

Aragones wins Henry case appeal.

 

So despite calling Thierry Henry a 'black sh*t' Aragones has been cleared of a being a dirty racist. So much for kicking racism out of football

I can see why he said it, Henry is an arrogant twat, with 1 rule for him and another for everyone else.

 

At the heat of the moment there has been many worse things said

 

Then call him an arrogant twat, not a black sh*t.

 

Heat of the moment or otherwise, it's not acceptable.

 

If he hasn't said it, then that's fair enough, he doesn't deserve the criticism, but if he did, I can't see any reason why it can be excused.

Didn't Aragones also claim Jose Reyes was better than Thierry Henry because "Reyes is a gypsy and Henry is black."

[uni_don]

A typical example of Henry today sums him up perfectly.

 

It is any wonder why people say things such as this

His being arrogant does not justify racist abuse.

[Jaws]

His being arrogant does not justify racist abuse.

 

Agree with that. The guy's a first class knobend but call him an arrogant twat, not a black sh*t or whatever. The amount of racist abuse black players in Spain have to put up with is disgraceful. I remember Eto'o was going to walk off the pitch in a game last season, think it was at Zaragoza, for racist abuse from the fans. No one should have to put up with that.
