Hi I was thinking about posting on this thread but I need your advice before I do. Which is acceptable asshole or arsehole in your grand understanding of the english language?
He wasn't correcting 'dont' to 'didnt' he was seeking clarity about whether the steward 'did' or 'didn't' hand the person over to the police. It was a question not a correction of someone's grammar. And I'd use arsehole. Asshole is an American-ism.

And I agree: I'd use "arsehole", but only on special occasions.

sorry yes i meant to say didnt,,thanks for that,,it would have looked better for the club if that process was followed It certainly would have. I don't know how easy such people are to arrest, but plenty of back-up should be available I'd have thought.

Our club could do a lot more to promote the kick it out agenda. All they have ever done is get a black guy to rap on the pitch through the awful p.a system once a ter on kick it out day. The club should invite Jason Roberts, Barry Hayles, Big Dev, Carl Saunders, Frankie Bennett etc onto the pitch in front of the Blackthorn before a game as a big group along with Harrison and Trotman t o remind the crowd how ridiculous it is.That would be more powerful than some poopy reggae band. Or perhaps we just need to educate one individual, and also the club itself needs to train it's stewards on the rights and wrongs of what can be shouted at players? There seems no suggestion anywhere that this was anything but an insolated incident carried out by one individual who may not even be aware the langague he used was considered ractist
