Another photo (this one of kid and dad) reminded me of another wee story in
Munich as we sat in the Lowenbrau brewery watching all the days games on the
big screen. On our table, we happened to be sitting beside an italian man
and his wee son who couldn?t be more than 11 or 12. They both could speak
very little english but still got into the world cup spirit (football is the
international language etc etc cliche cliche) and entered into the banter.

The boy had an exercise book in which he was drawing the flags of each
country involved then he was asking fans from each country to sign his book
besides their flag. Very sweet he was and both myself and king tut duly
signed beside his very artistic St Georges Cross.

Anyroads, his dad went off to get some food and left the boy with us. Every
few minutes he would utter a few words to me in English. ?Michael Owen. Very
good? ... ?Totti. Champion? . He was trying to get involved and fair play to
him. Then during the game Ronaldinio made a move and the commentator made a
comment on the play. The boy tapped me and said ?Ronaldinio ... Monkey?.
Myself and Tut just sat there shocked. Then he got into that zone that kids
do sometimes (especially only kids) when they start talking to themselves
muttering under their breath. He muttered in italian but every 10th word or
so was in english Ronaldinhio ...Monkey .... Ths went on for like 3 or 4
minutes ....

Myself and tut just sat there not quite knowing what to do. His dad came
back with plates full of tucker for him and his wee saintly boy and we were
wondering whether or not to say anything to him ... But decided against it
for some reason. I think the language barrier would have proven to be a wee
too much in the 90 degree heat and after 5 huge glasses (litres) of
kronenborg.

But thoughts .... We both accept the kid had no malace and wasn?t a neo nazi
parading as michael j fox ... But think about it, no wonder there are
problems in Italian and Spanish football if normal, well bought up middle
class kids like this grow up thinking that calling a black player a monkey
is normal sport for a Saturday afternoon ....
