E.J.Thribb Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 And yet players eff and jeff all match and not a lot is ever done about that. Farcical. Anyway the guy is right, Harry Kane is a see you next Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Never looked at it from that angle- but yes they do, players are sweary indeed! It's a sad indicator of continuing sanitisation of the game. Kane...is England's best striking hope...but the potential that he may become a diver, isn't something I'm keen on.

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted March 5, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I wouldn’t last five minutes..... a few beers a contentious decision and that would be my lot..... and if that’s how it’s going, football will have managed to change the socio balance of the crowds in a few short years.

Super Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Reckon if he would have called him a focker he might have been ok! It's the dreaded 'C' word that everyone takes offence with. Punishment does seem strong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddoh Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I think the ban is completely justified he used "cheating" and "horrible" how can anyone be justified using those words about a player, official or the corrupt people that run the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin_unreliant Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Ha ha. "They took are season tickets off us and said they would make a decision by Tuesday". Was that deliberate. We'll see you next Tuesday with the result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Seems a little over the top....obviously abuse and foul language is to be avoided, but all of us have acted on the spur of the moment, and then regretted it. Everyone deserves a second chance. I think it's a little extreme to ban loyal long term supporters for a momentary lack of dignity......it seems that they have been made scapegoats to warn others of their actions. All a little unsavoury and avoidable, feel sorry for them. In fact they only stated the truth..............only kidding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible...but then again the PL is now VERY sanitised, and the higher up you go the more sanitised it is etc. 50/50 I'd say. You know the numbers of stewards we had v the 2 Manchesters? That's the new normal or something like it if we go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtrojan Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 To be fair fans have been ejected at various grounds for swearing for years. I'll never forget the first game of the season away to Notts county in the mid 80's or so ,not many of us up there ,and literally 5 mins into the game a bloke to our right said the f word ,but not in a particularly offensive way,and was marched out by two stewards.We all watched our p's and q's that day. Match was a very tedious 0-0 draw,the bloke as it turns out had been quite lucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudski Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 I've never understood how fans can be taken to task for swearing and clouting someone, yet as a player you can swear as much as you like and very rarely get a yellow card, and if you head butt someone or punch them, you may get a red card, but the Police never get involved. How's it different? It's still an assault and not part of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhistleHappy Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Bloody ridiculous,, what are they doing to our traditional football grounds? - places (sanctuaries) where the ordinary working/family man could go once or twice a week to let off steam and the frustrations of life along with letting go of a few inhibitions with others of similar backgrounds to jump around, hug, shout, cry, sing with joy when 'their team' does well etc..... Sweary words go hand in hand with that, if it's accepted from the *management and pro's in the dressing rooms (of course it is, & rightly so) it's the same passion that runs through the veins of the supporters, oft regarded as the 12th man, etc and must at times be expected and accepted in the stands too. (*we all seen the fly on the wall, behind the scenes TV documentaries.. Warnock et al at club level, to the top of the game, Taylor as the FA's England team manager... bad language is part and parcel of the game, (can you think of a game, other than tiddly winks and ludo where it's not? ) it is cultural (sometimes a bit OTT admittedly) but usually self controlled reasonably well and accepted within reason by the paying public within earshot.. sanitise too much and kill the game, they'll sanitise the life out of it. .....

Mr Popodopolous Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Probably linked to corporates moaning about swearing maybe a bit too, especially PL as a risk factor- feeding into that whole attitude... To which I would say...hopefully the whole ground would join in with this at them if it happened (the non-corporates chanting at the corporates). 'If you don't like swearing, then **** off'. Ideally, would be tweaked to make it into a chant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
