Professional footballer declares that he is gay

Re: Professional footballer declares that he is gay

I'm not trying to be smart at all. I'm offering an opinion that singing a crass song at a football match isn't racism per se. You may think it is racist, I think its puerile. Isn't it wonderful that we can have differences of opinion.

So basically they're singing a song that might have the same meaning as "I'd rather be a hammer than a nail"? But they all decided to choose a couple of different nouns, just random ones.

Right.

He has genuinley put acorss one of the worst arguments in ccmb history. Yet this still makes him look stupider:

Is that really racist? We're the sane ****ing race.

English bashing, definitely. Not racist.

And it's banter.

But apparently he is going to self police the fans to make sure any player coming out doesnt get anything homophobic sang in the stands.

Re: Professional footballer declares that he is gay

do you think football fans believe in everything they sing?

I believe people who aren't racist don't spit out such loaded language.

I don't think they're random at all. They're picking the English because we're playing an English football team.

do you think city fans are really friends with Harold Shipman? We both know the answer, and we both know football fans sing songs in the comfort of the safety net of being at the match in numbers.

Would you sing "I'd rather wear a turban than a rose"?

Amazing. You therefore can chant racism but not be racist.

who knows. if this song ever does rear its head when watching the city, why not ask those singing it what it means to them. I reckon most if not all hadn't really given it that much thought as to what they are singing.

I said people sing all sorts of songs without giving it too much thought about what they are actually singing.
