www.thefootballnetwork.net/main/s253/st51189.htmRoyals striker Dave Kitson has told the Reading Evening Post he isn't happy with the planned Ginger Day idea ahead of the visit of West Bromwich Albion this Saturday. While Royals supporters will be wearing their Ginger Wigs, Albion supporters will be dressing up as Vikings. Kitson told the local newspaper; “I’ve spent all my time going to places like Ninian Park and The New Den just getting harassed about the colour of my hair to the point where you want to fight back so the last thing I need really is 15,000 people all in ginger wigs drawing attention to it…… It does cause offence to me and I’d like to thank the club for not even asking me if I minded!..... From my point of view it is something I can do without”.

I have no idea what its like to have ginger hair but I have several friends who do......none of whom give a stuff. we rib them all the time about it but they dont care at all. I can understand it being upsetting when your a kid but we're talking about a grown bloke! Surely he can see the light hearted fun/banter and the complaiment behind the gesture and that its a vote of support in his favour? Bit pathetic really if not dont you think? Each to their own I suppose? Do it anyway I say.....if it makes him mad he might score lol!

Sure kits has had ribbing before about being flame haired and took it in his stride but after reading match reports for seven years that always refer to him as carrot topped, ginger beacon or red headed...probably a bit of a ballache.

i'm ginger & left handed, but i don't give a damm mind you ilford might be offended ;D I have a problem with "gingerism" , however I don't see this as "gingerism" (ie taking the piss and being abusive) I see this as a celebration of his gingerness . However if he isn't happy about it then its probably best not to do it Ginger, and proud I got nicknamed duracell as a kid, cos I wear a lot of black clothes and have a copper top, I never had a problem with that cos its light hearted and original

isnt it meant to be worse if you dye it?
facial hair, eyebrows etc? if it pisses him of, suppose you just gotta respect that. a lad i used to go school with used to get it just cause he was ginger, felt sorry for him cause he did used to get abit pissed off
