    Clumsy but not racist.

    That's what happens when you let uneducated footballers make their own decisions.

    Did any black French players comment on the post such as Kante or Pogba, storm in a tea cup really.

    This is great! I'd bet even Diane Abbott would look at it and laugh!

    Years ago you could dress up as Hitler for Halloween and no one would batt an eyelid. Now it's deemed offensive but Halloween is about scary costumes or evil costumes.

    I saw a black guy dressed up in full SS officer uniform this Halloween.
    No BS. He did an excellent job too. Had to laugh.

    Although in fairness this was in Finglas, where normality doesn't always apply.

    Their heyday was 80s, early 90s so it’s a safe assumption that it’s a throwback costume.

    They are still going strong now. They are on a World Tour next year. They'll be in Cardiff, Liverpool, Manchester and Glasgow in the UK if you are a fan.

    It's only a bit of banter. Stop taking offense on other people's behalf.
