Football's dead part 52094854

Article in todays Observer.

http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_...200772,00.html

Put to one side the actual topic of the article for one moment. The opening lines:

'Spurs are on their way to Belsen, Hitler's gonna gas 'em again...' It's not a song you would expect to hear on a family day out at a Premier League game, but it is one of several anti-Semitic chants still heard at some top-flight grounds.

If you want a £#%&!ing family day out, £#%&! off to Windsor Safari Park or £#%&! off to visit some of your unfortunate £#%&!ing relatives, DO NOT set foot in a football stadium and expect it to be family entertainment you £#%&!ing middle class bandwagon jumping £#%&!ing harridan @#%&! faced bitch.

So your saying racism is acceptable and that anti-semitic chants are ok even if familys are not there. #@&%!.

poor form al. I agree that it shouldn't be a family day out, but that doesn't include anti-semiticism or chants of that nature. Needs to be stamped out of football to be honest, and is usually not a class issue anyway.

Oh FFS, get a grip and re-read my post you nob.

I'm not making a comment on racism or anti-semitic chants. I'm making a comment on her remark that she considers a Premier League football match to be a 'family day out'.

Try reading and then thinking before your knee-jerk reaction.

Did IQs just plummet round here?

The post is about her family day out comment, not the issue of the anti-semitic chants or racism.

Next month she'll be whining about 'the referee's a £#%&!er' not being a chant to hear at her next family outing.
The chant is irrelevant, it's her thinking that football is something to take the family out to, to be entertained.

'Put to one side the actual topic of the article for one moment'

£#%&!ing hell, did you two miss this bit?!

Spot on Al. It should not be a £#%&!ing family day out. Bag o shite.

Couldn't agree more. So much so, that I've e-mailed her gaffer.

And as for those getting all sanctimonious, read Al's post agin, and this time have the decency to read it properly. So £#%&!ing rude, spouting off when you haven't bothered to actually read what you are criticising.



One more thing - and this time I refer to the topic of the article - despite what this woman claims, racist chanting is probably at an all-time low in football. It's the one thing modern day football actually does have going for it over that of years ago. Well, that and toilets that aren't just a sheet of corrugated metal nailed to a wall, obv.

I have and I agree. But the article is clearly pointing out that despite how far the modern game (and modern crowd) has come, there is still anti semitic chants.

We now have a media that will report such abuse as it isn't as common these days - but highlighting it is not a crime IMO. For all you know, the family could've been working class. And family's did go to football in the 70's/80's, this isn't a new and negative part of the modern game.

She doesn't have the right to expect a family atmosphere, but she has the right to complain about something that is wrong.

And isn't the point of it to have a go at the Chelsea supporters as opposed to football supporters in general?

Well Fat Al, you've gone nd done it now! you've stirred up the moronic lefties!

how does it feel to be a nazi?

Its like being asked to stop swearing at the game by a mother there with her young kids, acting like theyre at the saturday afternon pictures

It's at times like these that I really miss Tropical on this forum.

I dunno I'm tired

Two goes. And still you don't get it.



He wasn't having a go at her for highlighting the morons who make the anti-Semitic chants etc. Only a true #@&%! would disagree with that.

HE WAS CRITICISING HER FOR SAYING FOOTBALL IS A FAMILY DAY OUT. BECAUSE IT ISN'T.

Please, get it now, will you? Cheers.
