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...

HoylandOwl Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 Interesting how Hallam FM posted about it on Twitter A Rotherham man has been given a suspended prison sentence & a 5 year football banning order for mocking the death of @SunderlandAFC mascot Bradley Lowery. 32 y/o Dale Houghton held up a picture of the late 6 y/o to away fans during the @SkyBetChamp fixture at @swfc: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snap Posted November 17 Share Posted November 17 That'll teach him. The next time he wants to outrage public decency and expect to get away with it he needs to climb a war monument or attack the London Cenotaph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank_Owl2,0 Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 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. Social media can do that quite easily. I try these days to not engage with certain people and the comments they make.

There's no such thing as free speech, and never really has been. Re the second bit in bold. Absolutely and I know a few folks like that.

owl71 Posted November 24 Share Posted November 24 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 Share Posted November 25 (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. Edited November 25 by Tank_Owl2,0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to find out exactly what they were chanting. Like "get to specsavers you useless x@£$%$£" is still ok I take it? But "get to specsavers you useless female x@£$%$£" isn't. Shame the coppers couldn't find anything else better to do. Not condoning it but it's hardly the crime of the century is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
