Ramón Rodríguez Verdejo (AKA Monchi)

[Jon Crofts]

I wonder where they were when we employed John Terry.

People actively searching out things to be offended by.

And the trouble is that it plays into the hands of the Can't Say Anything These Days mob whose mate at work Chalkie loved Alf Garnett.

Exactly Dave. To be fair, I don't know anything about the Spanish/Basque festivals in question, but then I'm guessing nor does the person calling Monchi a racist and the club a disgrace for employing him.

You can also hear the sanctimonious outrage from Small Heath in space.

There were loads that didn't want him at the Villa, including on here.

I see there's a bit of a storm brewing on Twitter about him attending a cultural event in Spain that involves wearing blackface.

It was probably a Moors and Christians festival. They have them in loads of towns in Spain, is a centuries old thing.

They basically have a big parade and then do a bit of cruelty to animals, that sort of thing.

From what I have read, it was a festival to do with Christmas. Three Kings parade, I think its called.

People like Van Nistelrooy & Sergio Ramos did it too.

And 'Jesus' wasn't white.

He was a man of middle eastern descent.

Always cracks me up when you see some Southern American hardcore redneck evangelist spouting their "we are a god fearing people" yada, yada, hatred with a picture in the background of a blue eyed blond haired Casper the Ghost looking mother fucker as their 'Jesus'. 😂

This isn't true.  He spoke English and looks like Robert Powell.

Jesus was a black man

I'm not sure about this. Wouldn't that mean God is Jasper Carrot? Doesn't sit easily, that one.

Not bad, 26 minutes.

I’d expect LeeB to normally react within 3 minutes but I know he’s out tonight doing a “throw the stuff out the window” job on a late paying family in a shed he rents out in Newham.
