  • Possibly the angriest and most inarticulate person I've seen of late - is he a UKIP MEP?

    just cant help mentioning politics - still sore after brexit vote :wink:
    Replace "UKIP MEP" with "Labour remain voter".
    Spot on with that

    You obviously don't listen to the drivel UKIP come out with!

    Not sore at all - his level of anger just reminded me of some of the right wing ranting I've heard recently - just being topical.
    Anyway, Brexit vote was ages ago - we've all moved on.
    Speak for yourself, I'm going to be miserable for weeks to come, if not months.

    Didn't cheer you up though with your insult.

    I found him quite articulate myself.

    Other than the AIDS comment, if I heard correctly.
    Yes, that's what I heard too.

    Yeah, I heard that too, as did my mate who originally showed me this.

    I get that it's a stupid thing to say, but worth noting and remembering (or informing) that AIDS was a forgotten plague in the US, killed 400-500k (and those are very rough estimates) in the US in the '80s and '90s.

    It remains a massive problem in sub-saharan Africa.

    I know that he's probably not aware of the American plague, as many Americans aren't, and may only at best be tangentially aware of the current problems with AIDS/HIV. Just wanted to put down for the record that it's a very serious disease not akin to watching a tactically static technically poor England performance.

    It's a bloke ranting about a football match...Does it need to be turned into some sort of political/humanitarian lecture?!

    Does he need to describe it as "Like watching AIDS?"

    I tried really hard to stress this is poorly/not thought out rather than disrespectful or whatever. And I genuinely apologize if what I wrote came off as preachy, it was really meant to be more informative because, as I said, it's something that happened here and isn't widely known about.

    What I take issue with, as a concept, is this notion that you can say whatever you want "because it's in the heat of the moment," or because you're at the football, you're emotional, whatever.

    Far from it Hoofy. He's a really decent bloke with a heart of gold who is one of the most passionate Charlton fans I have ever met (would die for the club).

    He is educated, has a decent job and is in no way a thug. His only crime is to not hold back his feelings, but he was saying exactly what most of us were thinking on Monday night!
  • Conveyed what many across the country were feeling I thought.

    You just know if he had mentioned he was Millwall most on here would stick the boot in about his language and choice of words.

    Always the victim........

    Good god - he hasn't murdered anybody. It's just a harmless rant with a few choice words.

    It's about the only half decent thing to come out of Monday. I only wish some of the tossers on the pitch could have heard it.

    May be getting long in the tooth n all and i realise the craic of being away with England, i did it myself in my yoof BUT anyone spending 100 or 1000's of well earned on that shower of shite need their bumps feeling. It's now like they are working off script for every championship. In fact i reckon the FA will just change the folder, amend the dates and location and off we go again for Russia 2018.

    Fundamental grassroots change will never be on the agenda of the FA, the Premier League or those with their snouts in an overbrimming trough of money...

    So sad.
  • Couldn't agree more soapy.
    I have mentioned it numerous times on here, but maybe this whole big business football is why non league gates have risen year on year

    Hard to disagree. I used to be a regular with England home and away. spent an absolute fortune in the 2010 World Cup and decided that was my tipping point in terms of away travel. Think I've only managed 4 games outside of England since then. Even the craic wears off after a while.

    I think its a strange expression to roll off the tongue, doesn't really make sense. Bit different to saying something sub consciously uber offensive like a racist or homophobic comment.

    Agreed, and thank you for taking the time to read what I actually wrote. I didn't say he was an awful person, this is disgusting and offensive, or anything like that. If I'd found that to be the case, I would have said so. What I said was, or at least what I genuinely intended was, "hey, I don't think he knows this, but here's why this isn't an okay comparison to use when talking about a football match."
