tinman-is-god Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 It is not that I am PC and find this offensive but it's just a shit, tired, boring and pointless 'joke' to make. To be honest I wish I went to a football stadium in which most people don't hold homophobic views but I am well aware that that makes me a boring namby pamby so I guess I'll just join in and find this funny instead.

Lighten up .Hardly homophobic. I personally didn't find it funny either but it's clearly meant as light hearted banter and not a attempt at being anti homosexual. So many seem to have been brained washed by the establishment and have attended one diversity course to many and have lost the ability to react in a balanced sensible way.

del ete Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I expect Brighton to be strong down the left side as I am sure they will have numerous left footers in the squad. The way we are playing that lot would probably come here and get a result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be almost frowned upon if a player held on to his soap, lots of shouting "straight boy" at the poor soul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinman-is-god Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Lighten up .Hardly homophobic.

So many seem to have been brained washed by the establishment and have attended one diversity course to many and have lost the ability to react in a balanced sensible way. All I know is that every gay person I know finds football crowds highly intimidating and homophobia on the terraces is a massive problem and this kind of thing doesn't help. Homophobia somehow has a sense of acceptability about it and although I'm sure the picture was meant in good spirits, I think we need to understand that it is a huge issue in football and we need to move out of the dark ages and kick it out of the game with the same commitment we have to anti-racist policies.

As someone else said, lighten up. It's a joke. A JOKE. Might not be funny to you, or others, but christ. Suppose your one of the silent ones at AG who never chants anything 'horrible' towards players or fans? Suppose you take everything said at football matches seriously?

Suppose your one of the silent ones at AG who never chants anything 'horrible' towards players or fans? Suppose you take everything said at football matches seriously? Do you think homophobia is an issue at football grounds? If this was individuals being taken the piss out of for their race then yes, I would be offended. I see deriding a persons sexuality as no different to racism. It is a massive issue in our society and not taken seriously at all. Won't even acknowledge the accusation of being a 'silent one' at AG.
