The position of shirts in a part of a stadium is particular to football in other countries. It's not an issue with any other sport in NZ nor part of our culture. So let's act like dicks and try to be tough and emulate some dickheads overseas cause that's what they do. I do think that if you are to go stand in the zone, sure, make an effort to find something yellow but if you have nothing, who cares. If you pay the same price as everyone else and are supporting the same team as everyone else, does it really matter what colour shirt you have on? I know they had an issue with what toilet you used back in the 60s if you had wrong colour skin and while this is not that same, there are some similarities. The fact that this is a 6yo old girl is just pathetic and ridiculous. If you abused my grandson at a game, regardless, you'd know my response very clear probably with a punch in the gob.

We are trying to get people to the game and grow Phoenix crowds, promote football and be family friendly where possible. This does nothing at all along those lines. It's bloody sport for crying out loud, not who won world war fudgeing 2. 

I think if you have an issue with what colour shirt someone wears, it's you that should check yourself and move away.



Please read what I've said repeatedly. My opinion has never been anti-shirts 

I didn't act like a dick, when talking about the banner/blanket. I had a conversation with the adult behind the banner/blanket, we disagreed. There was no verbal abuse, unless expressing my opinion that "it's unacceptable" constitutes abuse

What have references to racism in the 60s and World War 2 got to do with this argument?

You may wish to re-consider your proposed violent response to someone expressing an opinion different to your own and basing such violence on a lack of knowledge about what actually happened
