But, I remember the game at Hillsborough for two reasons. One was that Roy Keane made Shez and Carlton shit there pants and ran the show. The other was the absolute pasting that United fans took all over the City that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank_Owl2,0 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 He seemed to be truly remorseful about what he did and I don’t think anyone would argue it was a stupid thing to do. However I would be amazed if any SAFC fan either noticed him holding up his phone and or what was on it. The outrage cane later on social media. I saw it reported on the local news last night (can’t recall which channel BBC/ITV) but to be fair to them they spent a reasonable amount of time talking about the money raised by our fans and what it would be used to pay for.

The problem with free speech is who monitors where it crosses a line. The issue is when people seek out to be offended just because they can about something they should pass them by.

owl71 Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 People being convicted of public order offences for things that are merely insensitive and in very poor taste, is a dubious, and possibly dangerous precedent. Basically we live in a country with millions of silly knobheads who completely overreact to these kinds of incidents, and need to fucking grow up. However offensive those two idiots actions were, it was clearly not a public order offence. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest and I'd say a fair few on here would be the same I'd be worried if my phone ever got lost as some of the stuff I've shared aren't PC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank_Owl2,0 Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 (edited) As the years go by you realise there are some things that shouldn’t be tolerated and you realise some people are just morons but actually don’t necessarily understand their actions, and I agree somehow the scale of how to punish people for doing stupid things compared to people doing other horrendous things seems to be screwed up. What he did was stupid and I think the response of other supporters reflects the embarrassment.

Supercockle Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 We used to sing “we all fucking hate L**ds” to the damn busters tune and used that as the excuse after the semi final defeat there, if memory serves me correctly (which it often doesn’t). I think we even got an apology from the vicar / priest after the game for the treatment we got from their fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
