Have a video of the little twat that's been arrested for abusing Tom Daley
-
Have you ever abused a footballer at a match (or elsewhere)?
-
Of course. His abuse of Tom Daley was inconsequential really
It was the death threats that really did it.
Besides, I wasn't passing judgement on the arrest, more posting a vid that highlights what a little scrote he is.
-
Yeah, but my point was that a lot of people would think you're a scrote
for abusing footballers under the anonyminity of a crowd.
-
van Persie, on Twitter; told him he wasn't a REAL striker
and can't imagine anything more abusive than that.
-
Nah, they wouldn't think I'm a scrote. Scrotes are small and weedy like this kid
-
Nah, I'd be the fat f**k
-
Alright, a cúnt then. What makes you any less a cúnt than this kid?
-
I don't make death threats for starters. And if I did, I'd reasonably expect
Someone to take exception to it. Same with the abuse really. I'm a c**t no doubt, never claimed otherwise.
Do you see a kindred spirit in him or something?
-
I just find it interesting that instinctively we think of somene sending abuse from
behind a computer screen to be intrinsically worse than doing so amongst a crowd at a football match, essentially because they happen to play fot a team other we don't support.
-
Slight difference to calling someone a wanker or granny shagger (factually correct)
than to wishing someone dead or to get raped and then to be be dumb enough to put in the public domain in writing
-
I don't. Online is just much more public, easier to prove and dissemination easier.
In short, he's a bit thick.
-
Of course. But as we know, abuse at football matches gets a lot worse than
calling people granny shaggers or ****ers, and most of us have at least laughed when it does (though of course, most of us also have a limit as to what we are prepared to laugh at - but that line limit is often pretty broad)
-
Abuse at a football game is borderline pantomime.
If you approached the same player in the street or made a video of said abuse then it would be seen differently, and correctly so.
-
The Adebayor incident against City springs to mind, I stood there rather bewildered at it all
the bloke nicking the stewards's chair and lobbing it was mildly amusing
-
We rejoiced and uncorked champagne when Thierry did virtually the same thing to Spurs fans.
Of course Thierry is not the despicable scumbag that EA is so one was seen as a jape while the other was deemed worthy of the electric chair.
-
I do sort of agree with that. And I don't even think the pantomine aspect comes from being in a
crowd. I think it's specifically the arena that creates the pantomine.
For example, I think if Ashley Cole walked into a pub full of Arsenal fans there would more likely be awkward giggling than actual abuse.
-
And a load of Spurs fans were arrested for their abusive of Sol Campbell
No difference to this kid.
-
Not an electric chair, but somebody did throw a chair at him
-
Cole was a great player for us.
A key player in a side that won two leagues and whatever number of FA Cups.
I don’t think what he did was in any way worse than what Cesc would have done, only difference being that Cole was caught and took some bad advice regarding a book release.
I’ve moved on from the whole Cole hatred thing.
-
But shirley Adebayor was well within his rights to run and celebrate in that manner?
The fact that he should already have been sent off is an entirely different matter.
Crowd give banter/abuse and the player responds. I remember Adams getting dogs abuse from QPR fans once. Then giving a 2 fingered salute when we scored. He got into trouble for that, didn't he?
-
H e certainly was. I dont reallyhold anything against him
His book really is f**king terrible though. About as self-serving and deluded as you can get
-
The angle that I take is that people ARE FAR TOO FÚCKING GIRLY AND TOUCHY
Take your slagging and give it back imo
-
I think said incident was covered in Monty's book.
-
I thought it was funny tbh
The stamp on van.persie was much much worse
-
Hmmm, I think what would be better is if we reserved slagging for people who deserve it
-
Like Rooney "I`d knock you out in 10 seconds"
-
I would say Shittingham was a good example. Got real stick from us all the time
And gave it back in a measured and appropriate manner.
Not saying i like him, mind
-
Slagging off is a way of life.Everyone needs some now and again imo
-
Exactly
-
The book did one good thing though.....
highlighted the dangers talking on one's mobile phone while driving http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/biggrin.gif

Matthew 7:12
-
Fair play to him for that....
I still can't stand him...
-
A lot of undesirable things were once "a way of life"
-
:bagfvckinhead:
-
Well, yes, he probsbly isnt my cup of tea either
I must admit, i always thought he was a very good player indeed.
-
Yes he was a good player, can't argue with that.
-
The reducer, for example
-
You'll not want to come to my local then
You need a skin thicker than a rhino's
-
and possibly a different colour too?
