I'd like to point out that these thick twats are not representative of Manchester City in any way shape or form.

Unfortunately, all football clubs have an ignorant minority of cretins that support them, not just City!

As a season ticket holder for two decades, I have only seen one incident of racism at a City match, and the two idiots who made the racist remarks were rounded on by other supporters and can count themselves lucky the stewards got to them and evicted them.

City has a large multicultural support base, don't let the idiots in the picture lead you to think otherwise!

As writer of the article and fellow City fan, I concur with the above.
