Players walk off pitch in Paris claiming the fourth official is racist
Sorry I disagree, it was a descriptive comment rather than a racist one. No different to tall guy, fat guy, ginger, etc.
Interestingly, in Romanian "the black guy" is "ala negru" which if heard as negro then I understand why it got the reaction it did.
Misunderstanding in my opinion.

would a lineo point out a player "as the fat or ginger one?"
Then we'll disagree, in today's world, including the work place, it is indirect racismSorry I disagree, it was a descriptive comment rather than a racist one. No different to tall guy, fat guy, ginger, etc.

So in a room full of black people and one white person , to point him out you wouldn't say the ...white guy ?
I think the point of the thread is that it's bad to use any protected characteristic (race, age, gender, etc) as a form of description and incredibly wrong to imply someone is inferior because of it.
Unless the age is old, the race white and the gender man ...
