On the flipside.

What did they expect was going to happen?

Exactly.

Whether you agree or disagree with the way culture is going these days, it’s plainly obvious that there would be a backlash to this so I think they knew what they were doing.

Ridiculous. Impersonating one of their stars from the past. Too many people looking for inoffensive things to take offence about.

Come on, you know the way things are seen these days (not saying I agree with it).

There have been TV shows that have been removed from streaming services because they’ve used blackface so a backlash to this is not a huge surprise.

These Dutch fans probably knew there’d be a negative response so won’t mind that much.

Be honest, even if we think absolutely nothing should happen, they KNOW what sort of response it was going to get.

They have interviewed Ruud Gullit who said he was not offended at all and felt honoured by this. As far as this is concerned if Gullit is not offended then anyone else is not entitled to be. it's probably the usual white left-wingers complaining as usual!

Spot on.

Just people trying to find something to complain about.

Won't be long before white people won't be allowed to play for African nations.

Offence is taken not given, if Rudd isn’t offended he doesn’t need white middle class social justice warriors taking offence on his behalf.

Absolutely bang on Jock.

There are far too many predominantly white champagne socialist, virtue signalling, cretins speaking up on behalf of people they feel it is their right to defend. There's a definite agenda behind this bollox and quite frankly, they need to just f*k off!
