You're never going to kick racism out of football. Like what he did a lot. Showed them he couldn't give a shit if they called him a Nigga! Well played!

Clever bloke is Rohan Ricketts.

Similar psychology to Brighton fans singing "1-0 to the nancy boys" etc........confront and confuse.

The important line in that article I think is about making what is meant to be negative into a positive. Much easier said than done however.

Really good!

It's the same as any kind of time someone takes the piss out of you for whatever reason. Take the piss out of yourself more so and they have nothing to come back with.

Good on him.
