I hear Gazza's a racist now father (allegedly - he is standing trial)

questionmark [Edit] [Delete] 20:41, 29 June '16

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/jun/29/paul-gascoigne-stand-trial-alleged-racist-joke-comedy-show

Now, is there more to it than the reported incident? Would the DiS hivemind regard his comments as racially aggravated/aggravating? It seems a little naive, but on the face of it fairly innocent. OR IS IT?

It just seems strange that an incident like this should go to trial when so much despicable outright racism online is ignored, and even those kids on the tram in Manchester appear to be done for affray rather than anything racially motivated.

What gives? I'm not sure what my point is.

Gazza.
