Do you condone the use of "Yid"? I'm in a minority, but I've spoken vocally on this in the past. I, or rather my parents and grandparents, are/were of a generation when Yid was used against Jewish people a slur, my grandfather including during his working life. Yet I am told the word is repurposed because it is apparently a chant of solidarity (which is total bollocks as only about 10% of fans even thought about it before the Y Word debate) and because some young Jews are generations beyond the time when it wasn offensive word.

So when does the double standard start and end?

As a small boy, I used to go and see a 'DOUBLE feature,' at the STANDARD fleapit near the Broadway Market in London Fields. I would arrive before the START and leave at the END.

Hope this helps.
 
The coward who threw the punch may not have been seen in that vid but there are cameras all over the place on the High Road, it won't be difficult to identify someone in a black jumper and flat black cap from other cameras.
He'll be shitting himself.
 
tbf and I may be wrong, but I think even Freemasons are protected under that act or an EU ruling as a minority group.
May well be, but if you're an ethnic group (as Romany & Irish travellers are) then you are getting into murky waters by referring to them in terms they, or others perceive to be racist. Or you run the risk of a clump.

tbh I think most insults these days have the potential to get you into hot water. Give it ten years and we will be discussing whether the term chav and <removed>s (after all young male escorts have feelings too) is an appropriate term to use in public.

Already discussed somewhere on here.

I think people just sometimes get carried away in a crowd & say things they shouldn't. What we can't do is be precious about racist abuse directed at us & defend our own abuse of others (be that pikey, or homophobic references to Judas, or the appalling Adebayor Chant for example) as banter or suggest it isn't racist/hate related when all the precedents suggest it bloody well is.
 
The Wall lot amuse me. The only thing they can take away from the entire day is a pissed up kid in position to defend himself gets sucker punched by a thug in a shit hat. A sad indictment on that sack of shit club.

I can guarantee if the shoe had been on the other foot, they would have been digging us out for being 'bullies'.

Fucking hypocrites.
 
The blokes a Korean not a chinaman so its water off a ducks back if he's thick skinned enough; I doubt very much a Scotsman would stress about being wrongly called a Paddy by the travelling away support ;)
Are you really that stupid or on a wind up?
You done the same to another Korean, who spanked you, and got pulled for it so your fans know exactly what it's about.
It's like shoutijg paki at an Indian player when he gets the ball and saying it's not racism as he's not a Pakistani.
Fuck me.
 
I'd like to think the bloke on the receiving end wouldnt be bothered with pressing charges, however given it was football related the other chap will probably be given 10 years regardless.
 
cracking punch. Only a week ago some arsewipe who had taken offence at a bloke talking to a bird got sent down by Wiggy for manslaughter. A one punch kill. I bet Black Cap's punch was harder and better.

Mr. Black Cap, if he was at the match, is probably a Millwall season ticket holder and therefore on the Met's list. Someone will shop him especially if there's money involved.
 
Not really. I get what Totti says - he doesn't look as imperious as in CM, but he's doing just fine. He's not going to break into the 2 from 3 Wanyama, Dembele, Winks trio anytime soon.


He seems to play better in a back 3 rather than a 4 although I think his best position is directly in front of Toby and Jan but I cd do a job in that position with those two behind me

But I really rate the bloke
 
You should put him on ignore. All he does is bitch & moan.
His idea of celebrating a goal or a victory is by typing about us & any one who is critical right away. I don't know if he cheers at all or if it comes after he finishes his grumpy typing.


How many do you have on ignore apart from me?
 
Does singing a song about Judas, a player who we hate and despise really mean as much as signing racist chants about a player who has no relevance to us? If we were to start calling Wilfried Bony a nagger then it is the same, but as a club we are above that. It's not fair to target a player based on their race, but on their actions it is somewhat different I feel.


Mrs B is a 'nagger'
:pochfacepalm:
 
To be fair it was pretty stupid standing there provoking them with that chant. When I came out the ground and walked past the club shop I went through the police lines without taking too much notice and straight into the middle of their firm with my 12 year old. They were all staring at me as we walked down the high road. You could sense the tension. I started to edge to the side where one of them stopped and spread his arm so they all stopped to let me and my boy out. Not a word was said. Just after it kicked off on the pavement right in front of me when one Spurs supporter was calling them out repeatedly. To sum it all up for me if you provoke them they retaliate, otherwise they left us alone. Just my personal experience...
