    In order to figure it out who the bohs player is, look at this weeks lineup and see if anyone who plays in midfield or defence is missing who would normally play, I have a slight idea already who it is but im not guna say!

    No, that wasn't a definitive description. It was simply an example of something which I'd consider to be racism -including physical exclusion among others.

    All I'm saying is that people over-react to 'racist comments' when it involves a supposed minority, but, as one poster said, he wouldn't consider calling an Irish man a 'Paddy' a racist slur. If the player in question has maliciously targeted Boco with real venom and disgust, then yes, I suppose it can be considered racist, but since we don't know exactly what was said, it could possibly only be harmless name-calling in the midst of the game.

    Harmless name-calling? Will you ever go and ****e. Any racist remark is not even slightly harmless. Stop being a bloody apologist.

    Point is, you don't know until the facts are out. I'm not advocating racism here!

    if you where to do that you could ruin there chances of bohs making a killing on the sale of dalymount, which could make them the richist club in the land, bloody hell what a great idea sell the ground make a fortune and move out to the sticks and build a new cheap ground ,why have they not thought of this before
    I wish i did not know then what I dont know now

    Whatever you're opinions on the punishment from the FAI surely if proven Bohs cannot keep this player in the squad? Ffs what message would that send out to Ndo, or any other player for that matter.

    When he's named he should be roundly booed by all fans in every game. show these *****s that it not acceptable

    I don't agree. It needs to be open, let him explain himself to Boco, plead for an apology and just make it clear that he was acting the idiot.

    It depends on the context, if he was hammering him with abuse all match then a different approach would need to be taken but if its just a comment it should be out in the open.

    .
    Agree, let McGuiness apologise, let the FAI fine him, whatever. Im sure he regrets it, so let it be and let it go. Im sure Rommy has forgotten about it by now.

    these comments were nothing more than ignorance and without knowing the player am sure he regrets his stupity ,he should be punished but its important that we keep a perspective on this.
