You're right, but I think the world press isn't really interested in racism as an issue

and the British press have put the boot in a fair bit. I mean, the NCFC fan thing was reported over here, but in an incredulous tone. "oh look how oversensitive and silly the british are that they'd turn on one of their own". I spent ages explaining to people how such things were unacceptable and they really don't quite get our concern.

Tbf Blatter's comments really confirm that viewpoint to a great extent.
