be funny as ,if it was the wrong one!
why would that be funny? It would mean the guilty scum was still getting away with racism on the football terraces.

a year ago we had a thread discussing hanging , funny how the liberal ones amongst us then are the most conservative now!
although we are never hypocritical!
Not changing the subject at all ,just highlighting over reaction and stupidity,and the need to avoid the chaos we are slipping in to!
this could be the downfall of the whole game! ( which I wonder if it wouldnt be a bad thing) If a few words at a sporting event causes so much trouble, the answer is simple ,ban the sporting event then you are sure no ones feelings are hurt!
....A lesson in the world the strong survive , the weak die off ,the lesson is in nature!....
strength is respected , weakness is not!...
Not meaning this as a joke - but an 8 match ban + £40,000 fine? Or something more akin to Terry's probable punishment - a £2500 fine?
At least it sounds like Liverpool FC will come to the party - hopefully ban the scum for life.
BB - If the guy is charged with the same offence as Terry, he should get a similar punishment as Terry as they are being dealt with by the criminal law. I am sure Liverpool will ban him for life as other clubs do...
Exactly mark!! They are people themselves and are subject to the same feelings and laws as us! They are professional and if we boo them or jeer them when they play they take it on the chest and move on. But the bill sharp incident blew the line away and anything personal should be stopped!Footballers are humans like everyone else..do they deserve to be PERSONALLY abused in any way?
Sure they will take banter like stick or booing as part of the job but fans would moan like hell if a player turned out and called them a rude name...
I have read the comments, twice!. I can say that this guy clearly was not cryin wolf or jumping on a bang wagon, the police have arrested someone and that shows how serious it was! That person, if guilty, needs banning from all sporting events and locking away for a long time!! The player was a kid for christs sake!! Imagine if it was Britt Norway, you would be singing a whole different tune for a change!!I assume you have read the last few pages! The cats out the bag and now everyone and everything is going to be shouting racial abuse! and you know the ones that will suffer the most ? will be the ones that actually needed protecting !! and no one will listen or care! Cry wolf too many times and see what happens ,it started last night in the oldham game!
In fairness to Norway, the law doesn't apply on a football pitch.
When was the last time a footballer got convicted of common assault, ABH or GBH for his actions on the field of play?
