Rainbow, racist comments do not only apply to the colour of someone skin you know, it also applies to sterotyping people by there race.
Now I am not one of the PC brigade and I think that comments like yours about McClean depend on the context they are used in, for example, if you were to turn round to a friend at work who happened to do something daft and happened to be Irish some may argue that the use in that context is OK (I know there are some that would still say that is wrong, but I am not that bad). However when the comment is used with venom as you have that qualifies it as racist in my book.
You are of course entitled to your opinion on Pullis and you may think McClean is the worst player in our squad and have the right to say so, but without the slurs if you don't mind
Back in the 70's and 80's many of the fans at the Albion took a stand against racist abuse of our players from opposition fans and I am not about to accept it without challenge now, especially from our own fans.
OK had my say and off my soapbox
