No chance, he has stated he will not apologise to the County fans in the press today.
He has come across as a total radge.
Nobody should ever apologise for standing up against Racism.
Racists have no place at RCFC.

Indeed, the mind boggles at implying I'm the "enemy within" for wanting to move on from this sorry saga.

Still missing somebody saying this has been handled well.
If Spain is so keen to "move on from this sorry saga", I suggest he has a word with him fellow administrator and ask him not to post an inflammatory comment suggesting people don't understand what public relations and anti racism involves.

They aren't inflammatory comments, just replying to the undertone of a lot of posts on this thread.
Even Nigel Farage would shirk at some of the posts our fanbase made in relation to this incident.

And I think on that note it's time this thread was laid to rest.

I thought a forum was to allow users to post opinion and discuss.
It appears this is only true if you're opinion doesn't challenge an administrator's opinion.
I am unable to see what dynamite said as he is on my blocked list but surely it wasn't enough to close the thread??????

Very well Jamie, you clearly have some bee in your bonnet here. So here's your chance to explain yourself.
1. Why are your "opinions" valid, and yet I should censor Forfinn's allegedly inflammatory comment? Or do you really mean only viewpoints that broadly align with yours are worthwhile? That would certainly explain the irony of you blocking ShawIsDynamite.
2. Why should we be pursuing an agenda against a man who merely took a stand against racism by raising a t-shirt (albeit in vain)? Racism is not a game. Just because it turned out to be a false alarm, does not merit gloating and whataboutery. Especially when our own club was found to be wanting in this regard. I would prioritise the reputation of County over trying cheap shots at an anti-racist, but that's just my perogitive. If that's not the course you wish to take, where is your ire for Jeando Fuchs who started the whole thing off? Or would that be too on the nose for you?
Make some decent justification of your position there, and perhaps it will asuage some of the complaints I've had about you.
And to Westhillstaggies, I'm more than happy to let Malky move on. Preferably immediately after Saturday's game should we fail to win. But if you truly wish to reopen that can of worms then to you I say:
I was all for giving Malky the benefit of the doubt as long as he genuinely apologised. Taking the right reconciliatory tact, a position at the club (not manager, as his track record is horrendous, but perhaps in a DOF stlyle roll) would have been fine with me. Despite your claims, he has yet to apologise for his actions - apologising if anyones feelings were hurt is not the same thing. Yes, I used that disengenious apology before when I was a teenager. I'd like to think any self respecting adult would see through that by now.
Irrespective of the above, two wrongs do not make a right - I don't care what Courts or Fuchs say going forward, what concerns me is the manner in which our club (and our supporters) conduct themselves. To that end, I won't tolerate the anti-anti-racist agenda being pursued by some on here.
