Surely not, he was a vicar wasn't he? :o Whatever next. :roll:

And regarding the cricketer, it wasn't just the Jews he had a go at, but Africans too if the Today programme is anything to go by. But how are actors going to manage now after that Notts bloke apologised for blacking his face at a fancy dress party? They're always pretending to be someone else aren't they? :(

If you can’t see the difference between someone playing a part ,and someone at a fancy dress party then you aren’t as intelligent as I thought

And if you can't spot a humerous aside, then you're not as intelligent as I thought you were.

A friend of mine is very involved with cricket at a senior level. He tells me that the complainant was a known troublemaker when he was at Yorkshire e.g. he made an "error of judgment when he came out with outburst on twitter against coach John Abrahams on being dropped from an England Under-19 side on disciplinary grounds which led to a one-month ban from all cricket.

He was also a fringe member of the squad despite showing early promise and never really made it and that he held a grudge afterwards. All this was told to me the day before the news that he had made racist remarks himself.

Of course, what am I thinking, we know we can trust a Vicar! (Cue belly laughing! :lol: )
