I think there is a difference and it's every person's right to be offended if they find something offensive.
Some may ignore it, some may laugh at it, some may not care, it might be water off a duck's back to others while some might feel sorry for the ignorance of the person saying it .. it's all about the individual, the situation, the words and the intent.

And it's not up to anyone else to decide other than the person it's being done to ...

... IMHO.

I would like to think Leko was offended by what he claims Kiko said.
I am surprised its taking so long though, suggests no strong evidence.
Who is the 2nd player that supposedly heard it? Where on the pitch was he at the time? Not heard a name mentioned.

Did Leko immediately bring it to the ref or Kiko's attention? I feel like this is something that could've been sorted out there and then on the pitch with an immediate apology if it were a misunderstanding on Kiko's behalf.
What we have now however is a media shitstorm over an incident that could very well be an honest mistake by a player who has spent less than 12 months playing in a foreign country.
I imagine that if what Kiko said had any true malice to it, it would've come out immediately after the game, if not during. Instead all we got from Charlton post match were cryptic hints that there was an incident of some sort.

Do you have something against British girls Rigger? American, Spanish and if I remember correctly, you had a French girlfriend a good few years ago? :lol:

the game was held up while the report to the referee was made. That's how I heard it anyway, I didn't see the game, just listened to radio commentary.

The first girl I ever kissed was French.
Since then I have been out with English girls, but generally I've preferred foreign women.

French x 2
Spanish x 2
Italian x 2
American
South African
German
Turkish
Iranian
Thai
Malaysian (current)

I don't mind English women but I find they tend to be more interested in gossip, social status, soap operas and money than I am.
Foreign women enjoy more cultural pursuits like music, art, sport and .. er .. sex :D
The mere fact they are in a different country automatically hardwires their brain - or it reflects the personal traits that allowed them to move abroad in the first place - and I very much prefer spending time on those activities than the things most English women in my experience like to do.

Also, when you first start seeing them it's really fun playing the comparison game about everything. It's fascinating to me. I love learning new languages, customs and accents, etc, plus the music, art, food and films are opened up if someone you know can lead you through them.

I know I'm not the only one that thinks like this too :shh:

Oh, and English women tend to dress the age they wish they were rather than the age they are : foreign women are almost always more elegant IMHO.

The other end of the spectrum is that tomorrow, I celebrate my 60th (diamond) wedding anniversary. Went into the Jewellers yesterday to buy a present for her indoors. The guy said 'we don't get many requests for diamond wedding gifts'. He was a bit disappointed I didn't order a large diamond tiara. :D I think we have been very lucky and I do not imply any criticism of anyone who takes a different path in life. :thumbup:
