Ooft
On a serious note, they must have pretty strong evidence of what was said to charge him.
lol i know you boys love the lad and he seems like a nice guy (well hasn't come under the media spotlight) but when i saw what he did and bongs reaction i don't think he was joking mate. Rodriguez looked proper angry as well.
He's on ****ing camera from about 50 different angles and there are mics all over the place.Ooft

I'd like to see a clip of it again though, as I didn't really pay much attention to it at the time.
Can't seem to find one at the moment, though.
Have to agree tbh mate it didn't look good.
Still, innocent until proven guilty and all that.
just rewatched it (looked everywhere and only the scum have the vid unless you have a skysports login, searching at work though so maybe i have filters in place) might have overreacted when jrod looked angry. He wasn't looking like he was joking though.
Bong obviously took offence and that gesture is bad. Could easily be that he said his breath stunk but the squared up before hand and then doing that action is deffo not a good look

I believe that's what Jay has said he said, which is why I think they must have pretty strong evidence to charge him.
this is the FA you are talking about.
saying that though i believe the universal your breathe stinks is just waving your hand away from your nose.
The you stink (usually used if you want to be racist to indians smelling of curry) is what Jay did. Correct me if i'm wrong
You can see what Bong said, but not what it was in response to.
Perhaps there's a better angle that we haven't seen, though.
Could all be a misunderstanding, which would explain both players' reactions.
Bong instantly calls him a racist to the ref, which Rodriguez doesn't seem to hear properly.
He looks very upset when he does comprehend what he's being accused of, though.
Bong's words after the game seem to be interpreting the gesture as racist, to me:
“He did that because of the colour of my skin.
“Everybody could see this gesture and I asked him to repeat what he said. At this moment, I think he realised what he said and he tried to limit the damage."
Did he say anything explicitly racist? Is he even being accused of that?
I guess we'll find out soon.
Got so many people with that over the years
I've drunk it a few times. Woke up in the night hungover reached over for a drink - picked up the wrong ****ing bottle

Yeah that's a bad one... Expecting some nice water for your throat and getting something else

I know that one. One of the rankest experiences going. That and trying to siphon off diesel and accidentally swallowing some.
Yeah done both a few times. If I think about it hard enough I can still taste both tastes in my mouth. Rough ****.
