He's your stereotypical football fan. Millions more just like him.

Yeah I would’ve respected him more if he was honest

Think it’s a bit harsh on him tbf, it wasn’t THAT bad, an apology would’ve sufficed

Yeah I'm aware of the running DVD joke, just thought it was a lame explanation, maybe should have just been honest from the start.

Of all AFTV's train wreck personalities he's the one I've always found boring as bricks. No idea how he became so popular on the channel, he's not insightful (they do have a few) or entertaining.

That's really not that bad tbh. Silly in this day & age but like palmer said an apology should be enough to move on from that. Was an on running gag why'll I was at school & nobody gave af.

Basically saying that Asian looking people ambush you down the pub screeching DVD DVD whilst trying to sell you dodgy knock offs with subtitles.

It’s more a stereotype than anything.

I don't mind Claude at all, it is a couple of the others that continually swear and insult Spurs that I cannot stand. That DT is a few screws loose. Normal football supporters just don't act like he does.

Not gonna lie i was completely unfamiliar with this stereotype too

Every lad who's tried to sell me a dodgy dvd has been incredibly white

Never seen a Korean lad working at Blackbushe Market

It’s an insult and a derogatory term so downright racist imo

So saying it’s not bad is wrong?
It is a racist stereotyping people and it’s disgraceful!
He should know better that illiterate screw loose!
He probably supports the anti racist movement and then spouts racist insults at players!
Good he got sacked!

Could you have typed that with any more anger? Man is an idiot, man loses job. Try not to lose too much sleep on it.

But when you say it's a stereotype, it's obviously a negative, race-based stereotype. As much as it may have been intended harmlessly, it still sounds pretty racist to me.

That isn't what I'm asking. By definition a racial stereotype is racist, so a positive racial stereotype is still racist in its nature. Should they both be treated with the same contempt?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No that's not true...

Racist is defined as believe another individual is inherently inferior because of being a different race. If I was to say black sprinters tend to be quicker than white sprinters, that isn't racist even if it could be seen as a stereotype.

Apparently they tried to justify it by saying he meant the joke was about us bringing out a DVD for the result.

Troopz comment about Harry Kane is white so he must be right surely would have to have the same punishment if the sponsors are going down that route?
