Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
I've a scale. Firing sweetie eyeballs onto a pitch to abuse someone with an eye disability wouldn't be up there with my top 5 leisure pursuits but it's below racism on my scale by a few notches, and I'm not sure you should be getting jailed for it.
In my books discrimination is discrimination
So, "Hey ugly! You're shampooe!" to a facially-unsynmetrical player is equivalent to "Hey n*****, you're shampooe!" to a black player?

The intent behind the insult has to be taken into context.

What happened to Mark Walters was terrible, but if in the same instance Mark Walters was playing football in a game where both sides are all black, with a crowd solely black, then the same shout of "Hey N******" takes on a far less discriminatory context than if it was a sole Back Player in non-black crowd with the same shout being made.

The 1st instance is not meant to discriminate, but the 2nd example certainly does.

You don't agree with me, fine that's up to you, but I do still feel discrimination is discrimination, within the context of intent against how the insult will be perceived.

Are you worried about these arseholes' civil liberties because they've been arrested for mocking a disabled guy?

I sit right above you in row B of 412. Some feedback.

Can you not get a better singer to start the songs off? For example, he sings in the wrong key at the beginning of Grace, and the group needs to go to a lower pitch after the 2nd line.

Does the boy with the long hair and the megaphone really need to curse when exhorting the group to start singing?

Drummer is good though.

:lol:

At the effing noise up surely.
:lol: :lol: must be at it, or he hasn't noticed that
the boy with the long hair has had a right good hair cut. :ffs:

No, I'm worried about where these increasingly fascistic laws will take us as football fans and as a society, and I'm interested in what others think about them and how this incident relates to that.

Cowdenbeath player has received taunts on and off the pitch about his depression.

Should the players and fans be charged with a criminal offence?

There are plenty of modern football fans that would have a hairy fit if taken into the jungle when Drew Jarvie or Davie Dodds were playing. :lol:

Sorry mate, I just couldn't help it. Honestly no offence meant, I was just being silly.

Didn't want to get into it like the other night, and we both have different opinions which is ok, life goes on :thumbsup:

Hope you have a good weekend, and we hammer the Ayrshire Huns tomorrow :ynwa:

Id imagine that potentially you could quite easily be charged for such stuff.

The new boy on the megaphone actually shouted "lets give them a hand" when 67 started at the upper section.

Hopefully the originals with the megaphones are back. The new guy seems to be struggling a bit :lol:

The taller of the 2 has been at the past 2 games but not been on the megaphone.

I never really noticed - what happened to the guy with the long hair, who doesn’t feel the cold?

-10 and next thing he’s got the jacket off and cutting about in his t-shirt :lol:

We've only changed one capo, Tarzan ( :lol: ) was on holiday but will be back. The other regular has stepped down and been replaced by one of our original capos. Interesting fact, our now current two actually formed the group.
