I think it would be funnier to enable him to comment on articles but have the OP delete all of our comments leaving just his ramblings there. All we'd need to do is post a really short word which could be instantly deleted. It'd drive him mad!

He had a point in that article to be fair. The comments about the player's name were a bit like "Really?" Dunno whether I'd call that racism or even offensive but kind of unnecessary.

Had he said something like "C'mon guys. This is 2019. We shouldn't assume in this day and age every Irish person is called Paddy O'Murphy" then I could have seen where he was coming from. He didn't though and made the leap from someone questioning nationality based on name to racism instantly.

Sure, have to agree with that. Just wish someone stuck up for him and argued his viewpoint in a less confrontational way rather than it just being everyone laying into him because he probably wouldn't have been banned if that had happened.

Wahl. I did say that I found it tiresome being called a sheep botherer' because of where I'm from but that I didn't believe it was racist.

Anyway, he knew what he was doing. It's a shame because, at times, there were some sensible comments from him but he couldn't help himself most of the time from goading and looking for a negative response.

Depends how wishy washy a person you are.

I don't like RDD and was, I believe, one of the first to have a problem with him. But I don't like complaining to Admin or deleting comments, especially from a fellow United fan.
I don't understand why he does not sign in as Red Devils Double, talk about football, and don't just ask questions. Just post what he thinks. He would become an ordinary poster.

Yeah, the one with mocking his second name was gruesome.

Not racist for sure but still, WHY?

Neither do I. But I don't want to see decent posters leave the sight because of RDD.

I think Rosso was thinking about it

Kind of agree. His points are sometimes not as bizarre as people think and I do genuinely believe people misunderstand what he’s trying to say quite often. Unfortunately, he doesn’t really pick up on their misunderstanding and make his point clearer, just asks questions or tries to solve it with a cryptic one-liner.

As has been said above, there was a glimmer of truth in his point yesterday - that in today’s world, making assumptions about nationality based on “foreign” or “exotic” names can come across the wrong way, whether done in jest or not. A couple of people thought he was stating that the joke was offensive to the Irish - I don’t think that was his point, but I don’t recall his trying to clear that up, so he ended up in more than one argument.

I would really love to see some examples of this. I really would.

No there wasn't. Irish isn't a race so his point was immediately incorrect.

I like this idea

It would just be him asking stupid questions, over and over, punctuated by how proud he is to wear a white pillowcase on his head, then back to questions...

Nice to come back to the board after being away for a long weekend to see that idiot banned again.

I congratulate VC for snaring him this time.

It wasn't really a case of that.

It was just him losing his rag with me because I kept telling him that Irish isn't a race and kept ignoring his stupid attempts at side stepping..
