I think calling it humour is being a bit generous. I grew out of calling people Gingers or Albinos when I was about 14.

Thought about the word 'attempt' , but that may have come across as rude towards NM. Also thought about confirming it wasn't an alternative meaning, but decided rhyming slang may add further confusion, plus certain the hair colour was the 'joke'.

See what you've got me into NM! ;)

Just to be clear, I didn't mean it as a dig at NM. I definitely did mean it as a dig at others earlier in the thread though.

KDB has fantastic ability.

 

His long passing, crossing and long shots are fantastic.  However, City was already an offensively stacked team.  

 

Honestly, City needed the future Yaya toure replacement and a leftback.  (maybe pogba/kongdobia and gaya).  They did what arsenal loves doing, buying players for positions they don't need

 

Difference between arsenal and city is that City has Silva and Aguero, two best players in the league

Got to say, I shouldn't have said it. The word is still 'allowed' in British humour.... Jimmy Carr, Frankie Boyle etc, use it in their act.

Wouldn't dream of using the word Albino in this sense.

I do "see" that this can be interpreted as a form of racism, and didn't realise that those outside the UK wouldn't interpret the comment the same.

So, sorry KRC and Droogs :)

It can't possibly be racist - ginger isn't a race!! It is gingerist!!
