James McClean

[Brian Storm]

Wonder if the people who think it's acceptable would teach their kids such behavior in victory? That's why he lacks grace and class, it's the example he sets. If AJ did it he'd be splashed all over the papers and disgraced. AJ gets it every game. Mind you, we've bearly won since he was accused so hasn't had chance to lower himself

I blame Graham the soft c*nt. a little shoves no good. Why didn't you kick the w*nker into next week.

From his own Manager (Pulis on Mclean)

"He's not the sharpest tool in the box, and that's not being disrespectful to him. But he's a smashing lad."

[SC SAFC]

Translation - He`s a canny lad but thick as a ****ing brick.

Yes I cannot see Pulis getting into a Diplomatic Cultural Attache govt role in the near future.

McLean might be thick, but he's wound you lot up a treat!

*desparately prays the Mags will be winding you up in similar fashion soon*

Would that be the same people who used their voices at the match to voice an opinion towards McLean?

The footballing and media spotlight isn't on them they don't apply to my point in any way shape or form.

Even if you win all you get is an 'it's about time' Might throw an agg. score in for the ****s and giggles. You're going to have to win more derbies than just the one to make us feel inferior. Dat Da Truth Honky!

 

[Swords Hoopster.]

Dirty little IRA loving ****. Another reason to hate him, just before rememberance day, the little Irish cock

Charming

As an Arsenal fan, I realise this situation has **** all to do with me, but I just wanted to say that if your argument is that he/other footballers should set exemplary behaviour for children, then fans at the ground should follow suit too because all sorts of vitriolic abuse and profanities are used in the crowd which children have to listen to for 90 minutes or more. Not exactly a reasonable environment for a kid to be in to hear that language, is it?

McClean doesn't seem like the brightest tool in the box, and what he did no doubt exacerbated the situation, but I just think the whole thing is a storm in a teacup. From the video itself, it didn't seem that bad. The way Graham and Cattermole reacted was ludicrous as well.

Just my opinion on the matter.

Yeah cause Gooners would never get wound up by an ex-player like that

I don't understand your point. I don't condone that behaviour either, but needless to say, running the length of the pitch to slide on your knees after just scoring a goal would most likely provoke more of a hostile reaction that just swinging your arm in like 3 seconds.

It also has no relevance to fans - in general, and yes, that does include Arsenal fans - making the environment better for children, if we also want the players to follow suit.

I don't think you understand the history with Sunderland and this player who slags us off in the press at every opportunity.

Provocation = Provocation

That's fair enough to be honest. All I know about McClean is that he isn't very patriotic, he was once a player for Sunderland and, having joined a new club, he pumped his fists in front of your fans after the match. There may well be more to it than just that, I just gave my opinion based on my (admittedly little) knowledge of the situation.

Provocation = Provocation

Of course. And our fans that day massively overreacted too. My point still stands, though.
