and being an allias / parody..much like many of our "personalities" we assume on awimb.
hes done nothing wrong, its out of context ..much like if the daily mail discovered that a famous person such as myself typed such random racist, anti semitic, homophobic,sexist,right on,left wing,right wing, anarchy, derranged ****e

am suspicious that we probably don’t and that he was only on the skyline because Theo might ultimately not sign.

responsible for what we say or write and the offence it causes. Saying 'It was just my persona, not me!' is *******s and a cop-out.
at best been a Bendy double concentrate so not good enough. we need a true genius/goal machine.like .bergkamp, henry, wrighty, boa morte , jeffers..
as with cavani we'd have no use for giroud as weve now signed theo..alex got ozil and pod..f**k girod out imo if pay big for replaceent
i still wold have liked ballotelli tbh

No doubt they have acceptable use policies in place, and I expect these messages have fallen outside that policy.

He has simply asked people to consider them in the context of a private correspondence between friends.
In the same way that if you were up in the dock for some of your more dubious Awimb posts, I am certain you would use the defence that you were posting within a community in which people know you are just having a bit of banter.

The game on Wednesday was a perfect opportunity. No Sanogo, Giroud so out of shape that he might as well have not been on the pitch.

You might as well try to defend racist language amongst racists on the grounds that everyone there was a racist, so no harm done.
Fortunately, I don't think I've ever said anything for which I could be prosecuted on here.

I'm sure we'll see him centrally this season. I guess then it's up to him to show he should stay there :shrug:

McKay made those communications in a professional context on a company phone - he's in the wrong.

Wenger has explained in great detail why he often likes to play players out wide before migrating them to the middle.
Wenger looked like he may have given Theo a run in the middle last season until his injury. He's obviously not entirely averse to having a midget lead the line, so I fully expect to see Sanchez there at some point in the season.

especially if uttered within earshot of people hailing from the country you were talking about.
Context, see?

There's also loads of waste. I prefer a big piece of sirloin myself.
There. I've said it.

*ahem* You don't know if it is possible to erase all history on conversations on skype by any chance :sherlock:

privacy is much less simple than it used to be. Unless you own or directly pay for the means of communication - and even where it takes place - your conversation is in no sense 'private'.

your old conversations pop up again!!! :-(
if in doubt, reinstall...

Have you an oven thermometer? Oven thermostats are often rubbish at low temperatures.

Harry Redknapp: "What I would say is Malky's made a big mistake. A big, big mistake... but he's a fantastic lad. People make mistakes.
He's not a bad person. And I'm not condoning what he's done... bur he's not a rapist, not a *****phile."
So he can't be criticised or condemned, just because his crime wasn't rape or *****philia? :hehe:
