There's relatively indistinct lines between race, ethnicity and nationality. Poles are also an ethnic group, so racism would be the right term if the abuse he received was based on his ethnicity, i.e. the abuse is because he is a Pole, not because or not solely because he is of Polish nationality.

Edit: I know as much if not more than you know @Gritstone Ram If a section of Derby fans have abused Kamil due to the colour of his skin Youl be find me at the front of the queue demanding they are banned for life. But that’s enough for me tonight, as this will just go in circles. Edited August 14, 2021 by QuitYourJibbaJivin RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanoakaram4life Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Can’t believe the abuse Kamil is getting! He’s playing in a team full of donkeys! He can mix at the top level as he has shown in the international fixtures he has played in!

My point I was trying to make was that comments are made at football matches that aren’t acceptable. Why should one comment made about someone who comes from Poland be worse than a comment to someone from this country? Any derogatory comments should be treated the same if we all want equality.

Irrespective of what country people come from or the colour of their skin they are treated the same. It really is that simple. It works both ways and I don’t want to feel I can’t speak out about someone who comes from another country etc in fear of being accused of being racist I do however accept that the same language should be used with every player and referring to their country as part of the criticism is out of order.

GboroRam Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Seems we're getting a bit technical here, so I checked with the Oxford English reference for a definition. racism QUICK REFERENCE The inability or refusal to recognize the rights, needs, dignity, or value of people of particular races or geographical origins. So I'd say it is racism if it's about his nationality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line is if someone finds a comment insulting, derogatory, offensive to them then that's enough and the line has already been crossed.

Rewatch Peterborough’s first goal yesterday, completely loses track of his man, watches him run past him then makes a pathetic attempt to catch up, giving up a second or so later.

Or isn’t Byrne on your scapegoat list? RoyMac5 and RadioactiveWaste 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
