what a load of bollocks , your a manc in london and you still think gooners are racist ? when was the last time you went to the emirates ? if you do think its race related then why did toure get no stick but ade did ?
I was at The Emirates for the City game last season. Best away day last year IMO. And no, I did not hear any racist chanting that day. Just a few renditions of chants about him being shot at. Classy. I suppose racist chanting is unlikely by those sat on seats in which they could be identified.
BTW you can dislike one person who is of colour, but like another and still be a racist.
Maybe I was a tad harsh. I am not saying that all Arsenal fans are racist. I would be confident enough to say that a fair few are, and that they have gladly jumped onto this bandwagon of hate aimed at Adebayor.
It's about time Arsenal fans forgot about it. I went up to the CC QF game and you spent the first 20 mins abusing him or booing his every touch. Then when we went to The Emirates you all started spewing when he camne on. You need to let it go. There's not even any humour in the way you attack. The abuse is vile and full of hatred. If you hear City fans having a pop at a player, there is generally some hunour in it, and certainly not an obsessive hatred.
I keep hearing that Arsenal fans are pleased with how much we paid for Adebayor and that he's not that good. Then why the obsession? Methinks that it is partly because he is black.
