Mike Oxlong Posted 11 June 2015 Posted 11 June 2015 Sounds like an exotic swear word as in "You Konate" With Fuchs too we're going to be the dirtiest team in the Premier.

ealingfox Posted 11 June 2015 Posted 11 June 2015 My 7-a-side outfit could put in a decent challenge for the European places in the Swiss Super League. He hasn't even torn it up that much over there. Its a no from me.

The_77 Posted 12 June 2015 Posted 12 June 2015 I didnt know "coloured" was still a thing!Yeah, it's an awfully cringeworthy word, not to mention that it's quite antiquated and inappropriate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Merging Cultures Posted 12 June 2015 Posted 12 June 2015 They use it for mixed race people in South Africa. It takes some getting used to.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Strangely, the far-left, authoritarian "progressives" now use the term, "people of colour", which is scarily similar. They use it instead of "ethnic minorities", just to be sure that there's no danger white people could be included.

Using the word colored to describe human beings also harkens back to an era of overt racism. But thanks for the (poor) Zagat-style explanation.
