I didn't want to say anything, but I knew DAMN well there was only one group in that IG where things would be problematic...
 
One can only hope that Falcao comes on and gets a brace...

It's getting a bit tiring waiting and waiting for him to really get going...
I feel the same way which is why I expected to see him starting with Rooney out but I digress,hope you're right..

Amen. Granted, it's the only comment that can be construed as offensive.

In any case, a five match ban (if it gets doled out) is overkill.

To be fair the Jew and the Black man jumping line actually are "stereotypical" & "derogatory". The others weren't.

I don't think it's a big deal either, I love stereotypical comedy. But you have to be fair. I wouldn't be surprised if he's suspended.

The irony in getting punished for discrimination for a post in which the headline is "Don't be racist!"

The part about gathering coins like jews is what did it. That and it's Balo. And it's coming from a man who faced plenty of racial discrimination in his own country so I doubt it's from a place of malice. He's just fighting a losing battle. Remove the line about the jews and I feel there would be no ban at all.
 
Malky Mackay and Ian Moody make racist remarks and nothing happens. What Balo posted wasn't that bad, if he was English this wouldn't have made the news. Rio got fined what 45,000 pounds for a racist tweet, but they want to hang Balo for this
