Imagine my shock that there's a thread about decency, morals and anything slightly (in)tolerance-related, and MidlandGas is the first to reply. Same way Chelsea were quick to denounce the song about Morata disliking Jews, you can't sing anything with a racial/ethnicity nod in it. That's the way it is, no matter what these "Brits Abroad" types will have you believe. Ah that old chestnut, someone mistaking so-called race(were all from the human race) for religion, damn how can people do that My point was that clubs are moving to stamp out songs that a body of fans might be upset to hear. I get it that you don't seem to like my stance.

(1) Oh that's it then lads. It's not racist, just f**k the immigrants! (2) You're wrong by the way, but what difference does that make? Surely there's a Tommy Robinson rally you can go and read, be with other like-minded bigots. (1) Where in the word immigrants does he mention racism, you seem to be one of those fluffy cloud dwellers who believe in freedom of speech as long as everyone agrees with you (2)Why would you assume the poster has or is going to an anti religion rally, do you or have you ever understood what the edl was set up for(although Robinson has nothing to do with the edl now) It appears you believe everything you are told about the nasty white people of this country Fair comment about Robinson, and I'm not suggesting he does, but some of the views he expresses on here certainly tally with what I know of the EDL. It might be nice to live on a fluffy cloud, it'd be nicer if everyone agreed with me (albeit rather boring), but if people could not be offended by being told singing a song with racial undertones was wrong, that'd be nicest of all. As you said in another reply (I think to TommyM), the culture of people saying "I'm not racist, but...", and vehemently denying that Rovers has a racism problem is the thing that needs looking at. I believe what I read from the nasty white people on this forum.

absolute joke , nothing racist about it. Just people being offended on other people's behalf again and trying to look for trouble when there is none. Sick of it , you only have to breath in the wrong direction nowadays and some luvvie lefty screams racism and it's usually the snot nosed white people with all the complaints. Racial stereotyping is wrong, end of. This time, the people with "all the complaints" is www.kickitout.org/ Football's equality and inclusion organisation I reckon they know what they're talking about

What's your point here? What's a "normal" white person? Would you rather footballers were all white, fans were all white, the only foreigners you'd see are the chink down the chippy or the paki in the corner shop? Some people on here are beyond saving. Wyes and you are top of the list just look around you and see how our once beautiful country is being ruined i take it you have never lived in a inner city (2) or been forced out of your home by non respectful immigrants who ruined our lives and home by the way I am not racist (1) but I do believe that this great country of ours should stick to good old fashioned principals and not have to change to the wimped of everyone who comes to live here from overseas. When in Rome do as the Romans do (1) Oh that's it then lads. It's not racist, just f**k the immigrants! (2) You're wrong by the way, but what difference does that make? Surely there's a Tommy Robinson rally you can go and read, be with other like-minded bigots.

Don't forget that the normal white English person is now fast becoming the minority race in this country. Why. Because of pc What's your point here? What's a "normal" white person? Would you rather footballers were all white, fans were all white, the only foreigners you'd see are the chink down the chippy or the paki in the corner shop? Some people on here are beyond saving.

A song, or in this case, a comedy sketch relying on racial stereotypes isn't ok anymore. Hope this helps. You need to read the thread ( the original song ) before thinking I need any help from You, I was not talking about Mr Brent or his sketch. I hope this helps ? If we're going to be pedantic about it, I was in the thread before you. The inference is that Mr. Lukaku's skin colour bears a direct correlation to the size of his penis. You know this though, you're just trying to prod people as usual. It does indeed help, as the Brent sketch is not a current reference. Cheers.

Why didn't they sing it about Zlatan then? Come on now, I am sure you are not this daft? It is clearly because he is a big black bloke.. Now, if that stereotype is racist or offensive is another matter I guess? This reminds me of the scene on the office where David Brent tells a joke about a 'black mans cock' and gets a right rollocking over it from his superiors.... Very funny scene! But the point is, the subject matter was basically the same and even 15 years ago it was deemed as a racist thing to say. Yes, but it works both ways, colour is not mentioned so it's not racist, But, you making the link says you are looking for racist comments. A song, or in this case, a comedy sketch relying on racial stereotypes isn't ok anymore. Hope this helps.

DOESN'T THAT TELL YOU SOMETHING?! Sounds like you're slowly realising that your views are outdated, and stuff that was ok in the seventies has no place in modern football! Not sure watching the gas is classed as modern football. We play in a 1920's stadium with 1920's supporters..... Ha good point. Can't even get hot pasties (if other rants are to be believed) WHERE'S THE MONEY @whale?

The pc brigade and elf and safety muppets are ruining our lives go back even 10 years and you could say what you like and by the way I still do all of the s getting completely out of hand and beyond stupid soon we will not be able to say anything without fear of getting abused from daft quangos i know of a elder gentleman who recently was removed from the ground and banned from the stadium because 2 "ladies" may have heard him say something under his breath... as yet the police have not investigated these claims.... i feel sorry for these ladies because if the police can prove nothing he fully intends to speak to his solicitor about action he can take against these "ladies" Its a sad world when it comes to this....... Why have you put "ladies" in inverted commas, but not "gentleman"? If he's made a comment that has offended someone, it sounds like he's not been very gentlemanly.

Yes he did, and it's obvious whatever the injury is, it is causing him problems as he is a shadow of the player he was last season. If that's the case he should not be selected, he has had enough games to be match fit by now. That explains why he has been so disinterested and not wanting to tackle anybody unless there within a foot of him. We're not exactly flush with central midfielders though currently. Successful or otherwise, we had quite a few extra bodies to select from this time last season, whereas now it seems we're just picking from Lines, Clarke, Sinclair and Sercombe. As soon as one has got injured, we look horribly short. Especially playing games midweek too. Not pointing fingers, I don't think it's as bad as some on here would have you believe, but games like Oldham (h) we were overran.

Was he even injured, there's now way a goalie could have recovered from a rumoured broken in his hand in less than a month? Although bar possibly the second none were really his fault. 1st goal was near enough straight over his head.Wrongfooted for the 2nd goal but that happens occasionally for all keepers. I'm not having that. Even at the very low amateur levels you know that a striker hits a first time shot back the way the cross comes. His position was way too far over to his left, and as a result he could only get a weak hand to it.

Yatetown - Harrison had 2 very good chances - one in first and another in the second - he didn't even hit the target with them !! So NO - as a striker he had a disappointing game tonight. Bodin, didn't have a blinder but he wasn't poor - he improved as the game went on - one exciting run and roll back set up Nichols whose shot was well saved, he then set up Gaffney brilliantly for his goal. I guess from this Bodin can do no wrong and Harrison no right? I wouldn't have been shocked if Bodin was taken off, he was poor Saturday and again tonight, may need a kick up the arse! I wouldn't even be shocked to see him benched Saturday, but we all know he'll play! Harrison was everywhere tonight, looked strong, winning headers, pressing high, basically everything Gaffney gets praise for, he's only fault was finding the net, but he should have actually stayed on the pitch tonight! I'm with you Mark. Bodin didn't look interested today. Ellis is a popular target for the hate but nobody came out with much credit. Thought Nichols was the best of a bad bunch. Smith didn't look fit, was visibly struggling at least twice and the second goal was very poor. Frustrated. Rant over.

Forgetting the game for a minute.
How embarrassing was it to hear a portion of young fans in the North Terrace singing about German bombers and the IRA?!
I'm so glad a bunch of us retorted by singing that their songs were outdated and that in all likelihood they "had school in the morning".
The world is scary enough at the moment without our own fans becoming all "Britain first" on us.

Mildenhall in training today, but start or bench? Who knows. Mildy in training because he's the goalkeeping coach?

If Lumley is an option then we should definitely try to sign him on a short term loan. He isn't an option. DC told us so at the sponsors hour at the open day. Said he asked the question but QPR were waiting until August, we then had the opportunity to sign the two we did get.

At the risk of being shot down, I think the rules about "emergency loans" have been changed, and having Andre would probably exclude us from getting one in any case.
For the sake of one game, I can't believe people are talking about playing Mildenhall. He's been great and I'm sure is a wonderful coaching asset, but lets be serious - he was finished this time last year.

I am sure there are many arguments for and against either system,. However I have never seen a zone score a goal. Yes, but I'm sure you have seen many a defender head a ball clear from one. Zonal Marking is often criticised, but people rarely praise it for all the occasions the first man just belts it to safety as they anticipate where it's being crossed to. Don't get me wrong, I still think Burn was a bit slow reacting to their big centre-forward for at least his first two goals, the third being one of those awkward crosses close to the byline that's hard to deal with.
