  1. Completely agree! If you are pro the burkha then how can you criticise a non native English speaker for using a word that is innocent in his own language? Either we want multi culturalism or we don’t.
  2. “This Leeds side are never out of a game” becoming the most boring, overused expression of the season
  3. So the gammons/racists who say all foreigners should learn the lingo and adopt our culture were right all along? That’s not going to go down very well with those championing an inclusive multi cultural society.
  4. So let this be a lesson for all foreign players coming to England. We welcome all cultures but Make sure you have a in depth knowledge of English and language culture and don’t you dare behave in accordance with the culture in your own countries, even when speaking to people in your native language.

    Good news, I’m a big fan. We are a better team when he’s in it.
  6. The problem for a lot of people who always want to appear to be on the right side of the argument is that, pardon the pun, it’s not black and white. The Cavani case is a classic example. On the face of it in English, it could be seen as racist, indeed if that tweet had been from an English player then he should rightly be banned and vilified. But it came from a non native English speaker, new to this country where in his culture it’s a perfectly innocent comment. so does that mean that the “gammons” were right and they should learn the lingo and our culture? That appears to be what is being implied here. Of course, they wont admit that so it’s now a really difficult position to be in. How can you criticise a foreign national for not knowing something acceptable in their culture isn’t acceptable in English culture yet still demand multi culturalism? If you believe in multi culturalism and acceptance you have to also accept that some cultures view things differently to ours, how ever much they won’t like it whilst also being quick to point out racism every chance you get. It’s a difficult tightrope to walk, no wonder they’re so angry all the time.
  7. great glad i was able to help, maybe next time you won’t be so hasty to judge. None of us are perfect but we can all try to be a better version of ourselves, pleased I can support you on that even in small way
  8. So you agree the FA were wrong to ban him? It was wrong for him to be labelled a racist? He didn’t do anything wrong?
  9. In the great, inclusive, multi-cultural society we have in Britain, surely if a word is not offensive, indeed in south American it's considered a friendly greeting, in another culture, why do we demand that non native English speakers who have only been here a matter of months have to immediately conform to what is acceptable in the English language? Not very inclusive or multi cultural is it. Surely it's actually a bit racist itself. so are you saying the gammons are right? He should know our lingo and culture before coming here?
  10. It was a disgrace. He used the Spanish word for black, which is apparently not offensive in his native tongue but highly offensive in England. Having lived here for a month at the time he should have know this, the vile racist.
  11. He shouldn't be. He's been great the last couple of months but the reality is for much of 2020 he's not even been making our first team, let alone the team of the year.
  12. Well they need to make that clear, it's very misleading. Poor from our marketing department.
  13. Yes he did. An incorrect claim, he’s not even made the most consecutive appearances for saints 🙄 https://www.premstats.com/the-5-outfield-players-to-play-the-most-consecutive-minutes-in-the-premier-league/
  14. Didn’t Wayne bridge make more than that for us? Sure he was over 100

  16. I am Sad Old Gits. I noticed earlier today he's still talking about me on the ugly inside again, yet again completely unprompted by anyone and i haven't posted on there for six months. Properly obsessed. What a wierdo.
  17. Liverpool dont have too many bad performances in a row. Any point here would be welcome. They usually seem to get lucky against us. Cant really see anything other than a Liverpool win sadly.

    All I can tell you is that James Ward-Prowse is an informant,” he says, grinning. There's a shock.
  19. tough market pal, working from home is killing the office consumables market. We need to diversify next year, office santiser and equality posters are the future.
  20. Prosecco - should try for a job in marketing
  21. It's disappointing we didn't commemorate 120 years since our first FA Cup final last season. Particularly as the team that beat us went out of business the same season. Perhaps a we could have worn half and half shirts with "Burying the past" t-shirts during the warm ups to show support for Burys plight.
  22. My source tells me it’s red and white stripes so ties in with what I know, but as people didn’t like me sharing my snippets I’ll watch from the sidelines.
  23. Interesting, more than one source or a ruse to restore credibility? I’ll watch this one develop....

  25. Is this the same source that told you we were going to be taken over within a few weeks months ago? hypo ITK cred ❌
