Anyone know where clutchplate originates from as a name for afrikaners and why many of them are quite so insulted by it?

Wait...didn't the guy at the center of this whole Yorkshire racism thing also send anti-Semitic tweets? Shouldn't he also therefore be suspended, or is that excusable?
Yorkshire coach suspended over historic tweet
Yorkshire Country Cricket Club has suspended first-team coach Andrew Gale pending a disciplinary hearing into a historic tweet, accused of being anti-semitic.www.sacricketmag.com
Suspended by whom? He is now an ex cricketer, believe he now works as a property developer.
Ah ok. Then surely they should also be calling out his hypocrisy, as it kind of makes a mockery of his calling out Yorkshire for racism.
