He has no choice being ginger. He does have choice if he is a c**t or not.
You can't take a child to a game of football and not expect them to hear foul language, its just something that will happen. What you shouldn't have to hear is discrimination based on genetic luck.
A lot of impressionable kids would have been at the game.
If the majority of people at the stadium thought the Lewington chant was funny and acceptable then this may be passed onto the kids in the playground tomorrow.
You then would think it fine if ginger children at Southampton schools tomorrow are called "F****** wotsits" by children that heard the chants tonight?
I'd have no problem if the chant was "Dean Lewington is a C**t".
He is and has chosen to be one of them. But to pick on physical attributes out of his control is pathetic.
"You f***** look like a Mars bar"
"You f***** look like a Wotsit"
Neither Antonio or Lewington can do anything about their hair or skin colour.
Yes, ginger isn't a race but it is still unacceptable and a pathetic chant. Anyone condoning it is a retard as you put it and not me.
Dean Lewington is a nasty piece of work HOWEVER... having chants about his hair colour is little different from chants about someone's skin colour. Him being ginger is nothing to do with him being a prat.
Would you say "well done lads" if it was a chant against a black players skin tone chanting "You f***** look like a Mars bar?"
Saints could sell close to 50k possibly imo
Mr Luker should remind them it is 90k and that if Carlisle take 30k, the other 60k should be left free if Saints need them.
Why would Pompey bother with these last minute talks the night before the court case if the judge was going to adjourn the case 28 or 42 days? Maybe there is little chance of an adjournment and tomorrow really will be the end.
