AFTV host Robbie Lyle has apologised after contributor Claude Callegari made a 'derogatory remark' about Tottenham player Son Heung-min during Sunday's north London derby.
Callegari was heard to say 'DVD's going off' when the South Korean was substituted in the 94th-minute of Tottenham's 2-1 win.
The reference to selling DVDs from a market stall is a racist term that has been directed at Asian footballers, including Son, in the past.
Last year, a West Ham fan was fined £184 and ordered to pay £110 costs by Thames magistrates court after pleading guilty to a racially aggravated offence for aiming racial abuse, including a 'DVD' comment, at Son during a Carabao Cup fixture.
Callegari then appeared with Lyle in a video on AFTV, formerly known as Arsenal Fan TV, social media channels in which he tried to explain his choice of words.
He claimed that he'd said 'another DVD will be coming out' in reference to Tottenham's victory despite clearly saying 'DVD's going off.'
In a series of tweets in the early hours of Wednesday morning, Lyle apologised and said Callegari had been 'removed from the channel indefinitely.'
He wrote: 'I would like to sincerely apologise for the derogatory remark heard on the AFTV livestream on Sunday, and for the response video that we put out today where we failed to apologise and take onus for the comment.
'As a channel that has millions of viewers around the world, I fully recognise the power that comments made by myself or people on our platform have, and it is paramount that we do not allow comments of this nature to be made in any form.
'As such, it is only appropriate that Claude is removed from the channel indefinitely. In no way do I or AFTV condone racism of any kind and it is important we take appropriate action in line with the comment made.
'I have spoken with representatives at @kickitout earlier today and must reiterate that this is not an issue I would ever try to sweep under the carpet or ignore.
'The response video was a mistake and I can only apologise that we did not take responsibility for the comment sooner.
'In this time we will ensure that Claude undertakes an education programme to understand the full severity of the remark made on Sunday and that comments of a similar nature are under no circumstance made again in the future.'
