For all you Leary sods who think I'm spouting racism and none of u know me. This is what I meant by equality. This got a slight mention on BBc sport nothing on sky sports. If fury had said that  the other way round the world would stop turning

I would imagine the club and IH have been well aware of this for some time. Whitehouse being offered a new deal or not will have nothing to do with this.

I think you will find this got/is getting plenty of coverage in America. Fury got castigated in the British press for some of his extreme views. As did Saunders recently. Quite rightly so.

Don't hide behind one carefully selected international news story.

Where is it on sky sports news??? Yes fury got in trouble that's my whole point he says it and every paper social media man and his dog jump all over it. Would be breaking news on sky sports but this nah nothing to say here. I'll check coverage in USA tho before commenting on future tho cheers for the tip don't want to miss the point and look stupid. Let's see what happens with this eh

Fair point. Let's just see what comes out in the wash. We can both pontificate, but neither of us know that much about the particular case (Whitehouse). It would be pure speculation on my part.

I can see fat and ginger being potentially discriminatory but what is the third one there?

Also most people are offended by words. If you aren't that's fine, but if someone is rude / offensive to your kids, parents, mates etc most normal people get offended.

I'm happy to keep on open mind till the facts emerge about Whitehouse.

Many years ago I did an ACAS course on diversity and inclusion that covered such things as racism.in the workplace, I asked about calling Scottish people "Jock". Apparently that is racist as it refers to a persons race. I then asked about calling someone "yorkie". That is not racist since it doesn't refer to a persons race, just the region where they where born.

There was a case they were mediating, where a Muslin was asked to work with a gay man. The Muslim refused because it was against his religious views,as homosexuality was a sin, and the gay man then complained he was being victimised because of his sexual orientation..

So, I get called fat little bad headed old twit, and that's alright, I shouldn't be offended, but I cannot call Jock by that name anymore.

You couldn't make it up.

I don't think being Scottish is classed as a race,
