I am very interested in a conversation about how we can let people who are less privileged, for reasons such as ethnicity, gender, and sexuality, know that Phoenix games are going to be a welcoming place for them, and make sure that's a reality.  Winning football games isn't going to address that. 

If there is a problem in this area, the Nix and us would definitely be happy to address it - but we actually need to figure out if there is a problem in the first place. From what this forum's bringing up it's little, if not nothing to do with exclusion of people based on ethnicity, gender, sexuality.

Yes there's the occasional "corner shop" wanker, but those are outliers - everyone in their right mind is against that behaviour in a stadium, so I wouldn't call it a huge roadblock in our crusade. We can just ostracise those people and move on.

And if there's a so-called Eurosnob that isn't so informed on the Nix, well we can try do our part to interest them in coming!
