You post asked us to consider poor Ron being born into a working class background, intimating we should make exceptions for him because of that. Erm... no.

Where am I making exceptions? I said context not exception, football in England has mostly been a white working class sport for decades.
If we were talking about Rugby or cricket then by all means lets discuss the upper echelons of society and their deep set racist ways.
And as for "pass it to the black lad" I've seen people done for less. Alan Hanson was castigated for using the word coloured when describing a player.
