It is and thats the problem we have. Culturally speaking in the UK it is offensive, but its also correct word in another language for that colour, therefore one cannot really eradicate the N word.



I didn't realise this until now but in Esperanto it is nigra!

In Gaelic its negro

Latin it is niger

I bought some Mexican booze which was called Nigra. It was like a dark mild.

They still use nigger-brown as a colour descriptor in china.

Getting back to the topic.......



It would be murder for the club to remove Coyle whilst thsi investigation is taking place. Can you imagine the negative publicity and, whilst we are at it, who would want to come to a club that would do such as thing?



Therefore, I would say, we are stuck with coyle until this investigation is done with which could be a few days, a few weeks or even the rest of the season (aka - how long is a peice of string?)

On Granada news tonight they referred to him as Marvin Sardell. You would think they could at least get his name right.

I noticed that, as well, but thats what you get when the weekend editorial team for Central England and the Northern regions all come from Birmingham!

The police are investigating Sordell'e complaint. They take this kind of abuse very seriously down at the Den.
