    So am I correct in thinking that the only ones in the dressing room at half time would have been manager, staff and players? Therefore presumably one of the above brought this up. Which suggests to me that the England camp is not such a harmonious place...

    Scuse me if I'm being thick or have missed bits of this story

    Correct.
    According to the editor, it was a player.
    I would look at the players not picked, or those played out of their favourite position, or those that got a rollicking for their first half performance. Basically someone in the huff. I find it hard to believe that somebody was that offended.
    And if they were, why not raise it at the time?
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Or maybe somebody in the dressing room relayed the half time talk to a third party who then decided that in their narrow minded world the word monkey always has to be offensive, add that together to their hidden agenda and well...the old current bun couldn't resist it.

    So basically, RH is no racist. The Society of Black Lawyers are over reacting again (is this same guy not complaining about spurs fans and their use of a certain word?). And there is a snake in the grass?

    Damn, i still hate international football as much as i thought. Roll on the proper games tomorrow.

    The truth is Roy Hodgson is in absolutely no way a racist, he is a decent bloke, (if a tad dull) the word racist just isn't in his vocabulawy.

    Or is all of this an absurd distraction?

    What kind of comment is that?
