I really couldn't care less whether Harry is a liar/wide-boy/takes or doesn't take bungs/can't read or write etc etc. He's got us playing some very good football and has signed some very good players. We're joint top of the league and it's a pleasure to watch us play again. No problems here that I can see!!
Yes, we're playing well under HR, but I can't ignore the baggage - or that he failed to keep us up last year, or that he wanted away in the summer, or that nothing's ever his fault, or that he can't keep his twitchy mouth shut.
are we suggesting here that the mere mention of the word 'monkey' these days warrants a round of public apologies on the off-chance somebody gets offended? Forgive me if I'm not understanding this correctly.

I don't think offence comes intonit , it would have been reported to kick it out if offence was taken. someone took the chance to make thousands of pounds out of this.
Is it PC to get offended by people getting offended because they don't think other people should get offended? Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel, never ending or beginning, on an ever spinning reel, like a snowball down a mountain...all together now....like the circles that you find, in the windmills of your mind (or whats left of it). Viva the Space Monkeys! They are the only victims. Perhaps espresso and gorgonzola at 10.30 pm is a bad combo.
I was thinking that, if he was black, everyone would also think he looked like a monkey as well but could not say it for fear of being called a racist despite the fact his features would make him look like a monkey and not the colour of his skin. people who aren't very bright have a knee jerk reaction to isms and can see the difference between insensitivy and racism.
