I think it's reasonable for a PL player to meet higher standards during a game than the fans.

Warnock's mate, Simon Jordan, has given this a stir:

Slow news day!
Jordan is spot on.
Agreed, he usually is!

Personal? You're probably more guilty of that than anyone here. It's not nice is it?
I believe there's a huge difference between Joe Soap and a professional pl player behaviour at a ground.
Considering you only attend games for free, I'm sure you don't mind some dicks behaviour alongside you.
As for me, if I'm surrounded by parents and children, I find it embarrassing.
This is pointless, I feel he's a dickhead, you obviously don't.
Of course he's a dickhead. Look at him! However, so are thousands of others who were at Sunday's game. And many others, who are not naturally dickheads, behave like dickheads during football matches, especially important ones like Sunday's. That's the way it is, that's the way it's been ever since I began going to games in 1975, and if the truth be told the sport would be a great deal more boring if that wasn't the case.
One of the things I like least about the modern game is how sanitised and sterile it's becoming. The atmosphere on Sunday wasn't bad considering the kick-off time and the relative lack of goalmouth action, but it was pretty tame for a South Wales derby. Your comments suggest you approve of that and you want the game to be a sterile affair. I don't and neither do plenty of others.
Richard Osman & Alexander Armstrong stress that Dai Hunt has in no way besmirched the good name of Pointless.
No issues with the gestures.
Doesn’t bother me.
It’s the drink driving that pisses me off.
Seems to have been all but ignored.
Just as well he didn’t kill or injure someone.
Guy’s a twat
In fairness, he hasn't been found guilty yet.
How do the accused dispute being over the limit? Isn’t there a road side breathtest and if positive more tests at the station? Obviously if you’ve got a few bob and you can afford a ‘Mr Loophole’ type legal representative there must be some way out of it, I always imagined that if you’ve failed the tests you’re done.
What I can't understand is some of the older, middle aged blokes near me on Sunday clearly on their own (i.e. no mates to imitate or egg on) doing these hand gestures! I wonder if they would display the same bravado if a video of their behaviour was to be shown on their TV in front of their family at home?
Once again we get the "it doesn't bother me" response from some posters - easy to say when you don't have young grandchildren with you chaps.
No, , the case isn’t concluded yet, no idea why.. but he was charged and well over the limit and claims to have only had 1 drink.
You’d have thought in those circumstances he’d keep his head down.
Seems like a lying shit to go with it.
Probably get off it , thanks to some high paid lawyer.
Good job no one was hurt.
Me too, but people do get found not guilty from time to time, so there must a way out of it. There’s probably some procedural loophole I guess, or maybe the equipment isn’t always reliable.
Yup, they manufacture this equipment without any rigorous testing, and knowing it might not always be accurate, thereby leaving themselves open to costly court costs.
Why was it sterile? Can’t a ground be buzzing without loons gesticulating and threatening to invade the pitch?
You are a big, posh sod with plums in your mouth
I've been looking a generic term to be used for Swansea fans and now I've found it.....mongtards!
I don't need to be surrounded by dicks similar to those from the 70's 80's and 90's to enjoy a game.
Do you remember the days when kids and women were non existent at games?
Middle class lads at games dressed in £90 sweaters acting tough lads was the norm?
It's all subjective. What your happy days were are totally different to others. The modern day with your family is a lot better in my opinion.
Agreed. 👍🏻
I don't care that he was in there and don't actually think there's anything wrong with it.
I find it a bit cringeworthy that he's so desperate for affection that he does that consistently though. He knows his experience isn't going to be an away day supporting the team - it's going to be Swansea fans calling him a legend all day, taking photos, being the centre of attention, being the main man in a group of 2000 and I just find the fact that he goes out of his way to have that a bit...pathetic I suppose?
Chris Wilder has clipped his wings. I dont expect to see him in an away end any time soon.
Just read an article on it.
Quite rightly ,Wilder seemed to say he applauded him going back, just cut out the gestures ??

He has reminded him that there is a certain responsibility that comes with being a professional footballer. Quite rightly.
