After recently loosing my father who had brain tumour and cancer I personally felt d c's attemt at a joke over these 2 major killer illnesses very offensive as I am sure so many other people who have or know people with these dreadful illness would have it much reminds me of the glen hoddles incident over disabled people and he was sacked for that

With respect I think you are massively over reacting because of your anti DC agenda.
Also, it's nothing like the Glenn Hoddle incident who suggested people were disabled due to karma.

After recently losing my father to cancer, it didn't even register with me. Different people joke about different stuff, and different people are offended by different things. That's life.

I did think at the time his remark was inappropriate but do not think he meant it to be offensive in any way. Maybe on reflection he may consider an apology is necessary for those it affects.

Not at all comparable to what Glenn Hoddle said.
Sorry you were offended though. Personally, I found it acceptable comment. Also had family suffer from such illness.

Not at all surprised that you of all people are upset by it, to be honest.
DC could fart and you’d ask for him to be sacked

The way we are today, , we will lose the power of speech. Everything offends someone. Very sad. What really offended me recently, was the politicising of football, when all clubs were told to supply rainbow laces to the players, and rainbow coloured corner flags. Can we have yellow bows for the boots and yellow corner flags in sympathy with the Catalans? Time to boot out out political correctness.

I heard the interview and was a bit surprised at what DC said but I don’t think it was anything other than saying that although the players have time off due to theFA cup he wouldn’t and would be spending all of his time on the phone he ain’t the type of guy who would intentionally offend

He said something like, he'll be on the phone so much this window that he'll probably get a brain tumour.

It was a poor choice of phrase for DC to use. Nothing more. He will be beside himself I'm sure if he has upset anyone.
The idea of whether he meant to offend anyone is offensive in itself!

Thread started by one of a very few who want our manager gone. Move on nothing to see here.

Your choice, no criticism of D.C. from me and we all have experience of that dreadful disease. Your comments say more about you than about D.C.
