Devil’s advocate: if Clattenburg really said “I don’t give a monkeys” will FA still find him guilty of using racist terms?
@Sweder Not sure, but it's plainly not a term of racist abuse. But if FA are to be consistent, is the word "monkey" racist? Farce.

@bazzacollins@sweder No way that could be considered such a term. If so, then we've all gone mad -
@Gingeraction@Sweder No, I'm not saying it would/should. But if FA is going to be consistent with Terry, it should charge him. -
@bazzacollins@sweder Nah disagree. There's a world of difference from saying "I don't give a monkeys" to calling someone a FBC -
@Gingeraction@Sweder Agreed again. But FA said the use of a term was sufficient to charge Terry. -
@bazzacollins@Gingeraction ‘Monkeys’ or ‘Monkey’s’ is ambiguous. ‘FBC’ brings game int disrepute whatever the intended application
