“The treatment he got from the Scottish league, especially in the away games, the people who made noises like the sound of the monkeys in Scotland when he played away games, that is something he wanted to highlight,” Even though they call him a monkey as an Asian, he wanted to show how strong they are in Asia. That was the main intention.”
Said a spokesman Korean Football Association regarding Ki Sung Yueng monkey celebration against Japan. The video of the incident is below. As far as all the teams involved that’s the matter finished. No offence intended agreed all round.
Looking round the interweb it seems to be a haberdashery of fannies who claim that Ki’s claims are fabrication.  Worse still the CEO of show racism the red card states  “My understanding is he has done it to offend the Japanese and then it has caused a controversy”.
He can join the cave dwellers who can’t work google and can’t remember or want to remember the incident, which was commented on by the club in question and took place on a day when both teams showed their support for Show Racism the Red Card’s annual fortnight of action.
Didn’t seem to be much in the gesture TBH, but it was obviously a GIUY to the Japanese.
He was stupid and/or ill advised to divert attention to Aul Scotia.
Because now one thing is certain, and unfortunately for young Ki, he WILL now be subjected to “monkey” chants at all Scottish away grounds.
Don’t think it will affect him though, seems to be a gallus big punter
🙂
I agree it was a gesture to the Japanese but my beef is that his claims of racial abuse, no matter how misguided the reason he has mentioned them, have been rubbished by ignorant cunts.
Correct, he will get monkey noises now. Bring it on. They will look stupid.
He seems like a bit of a cad right enough.
