So wtf is going on with Bulut?

[The Lone Gunman]

You guess wrong in the post I am referring to on Wales Online

It was clearly a xenophobic comment and even giving the benefit of the doubt in this instance you are incorrect

What did it say exactly?

[The Lone Gunman]

The statement I made was he was born in Germany

The statement you made was: "Bulut was born in Germany to Turkish parents."

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

German Turkish parents ?

[Tuerto]

In my opinion people who use phrases like "Go back to (insert country) are more likely to be a bit racist or bigoted than those that don't, or wouldn't. It's a bit ignorant at best.

What did it say exactly?

It was similar to the post on here but a tad more obvious

It was removed after plenty of complaints

Indeed

I think Monkfish is clearly not a member of the KKK

But there are plenty of other beauties out there and this is what I am referring to

Yet people for the sake of a ruck are arguing over semantics

As has been noted its enlightening

There are connotations in the phrase. Plenty of people who use it may not be racist or bigoted, although plenty that do, are.

[The Lone Gunman]

German Turkish parents ?

Is that a fact? You know that to be true, do you? Or are you just making assumptions?

Really? Because the post you quoted it still there. You said it read as follows:

"Leave him in Turkey.....we don't want him back!"

It's all about context.

That is deemed racist ? Why ?

[The Lone Gunman]

That is deemed racist ? Why ?

Not by me.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Are they from Norway ?

Are they Norwegian German?

Norwegian Turkish ?

Ukrainian?

Croatian ?

I will let you decide

Erol Bulut was born in Germany to German, German Turkish, mixed German Turkish parents

They may have described themselves as Turkish, German Turkish, mixed , etc

Do you think he's French of Australian parents ?

Make something up

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Not by me.

Oh well there we go then

[The Lone Gunman]

Make something up

I'll leave that to you.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

I'll leave that to you.

So that's a no then

You think that erol bulut was born in Germany or he wasn't?

And that his parents were of Argentinian descent .....insert your choice

And that saying we .....as in us .....don't want someone and he should go back to Germany? ......is acceptable

Because this is what you are defending

[Tuerto]

It's all about context.

I'm not so sure. If the phrase had no history behind it then I'd agree. It's dodgy ground in my opinion.

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

I'll leave that to you.

What do you think the origin of his parents are ?

Swiss

Dutch

Native American Indian

Port Talbot ?

[The Lone Gunman]

Leave him in Turkey.....we don't want him back !

Some priceless comments on there

Dopey twat , he's German

Hmmmm.

[OurManFlint II]

My point wasn't to the fact of the "go back to where you came from", i just used that for emphasis, sadly it distracted from what i feel was the real racial slur of 'turkball'. The similarity with the term "wogball" is unquestionable. Plus he's got form.
why those opposed to Bulut are trying to defend it is more worrying. Scary place we live in now.

And there's the issue. You and the usual suspect are putting words in people's mouths and distorting what was actually said.

The level of daftness is debatable but its there

[North Cardiff Blue]

Is Greek racist, is Turk racist, is Brit racist, is Taff racist, ffs hurry up Tan, this is what it's come to!!!!

So wtf is going on with Bulut?

Feels like the last few pages is the sort of nonsense Tan, Choo, Dalman and co have been arguing about instead of securing us a manager for next season.

So wtf is going on with Bulut?

With all due respect, I don't think you're going to find the answer on here.
