Not for the first time it seems the lad needs to learn about being professional.

It's out dated and is considered offence by many...so he shouldn't have been doing it. At a time when we are having a rise in racist chants etc at games, he should have known better. Just daft to be inviting this sort of attention to our players....especially one that ain't performing great. Can't imagine our black players being too chuffed when they see the picture. This lad keeps inviting trouble to both him and the club and should show some more respect to workmates and fans with his actions, he is meant to be a role model FFS. Diversity training all around for our players. Regardless of if you think this is racist or not, it is definitely offensive to others and should have been avoided.

Defo not racist, offensive to some not all.
We have union reps marching thru the centre of Dundee with people hurling abuse about how white men are Nazis but this guy will get hounded for a fancy dress costume. Strange.
Not my club but I hope Utd tell the courier to **** off and don't pander to the permanently offended.

Agree - stupid but not racist in my opinion. Guy does have a screw loose mind you.

I have got to stick up for Robson on this one,from what i have heard the players picked their costumes out of a hat and had to wear what they were allocated.

agreed. the movie white chicks didnt offend anyone when two black guys dressed up as white girls, why should dressing as a lookie lookie man offend anyone?
2018 the year everyone is easily offended, offended by everyone and everything. Think the term 'snowflake' springs to mind...

Wonder what Loemba & Edge thinks about all this?

Did it mean he had to black himself up though?
