They could have just apologised for an inappropriate joke, and deleted the tweet. Instead they decided to double down on it.
It’s disgusting and a sad indictment of our society that this kind of shit is allowed

And it’s still on there, they don’t give a shit !Remember the comment about the city player and the sex abuse scandal ? They have no shame at all

Red issue quite rightly getting hammered by their own. Scum bags.

Who gets to decide what's allowed or not? People have the freedom to make sick jokes, others have the freedom to express their opinion on those doing so.
And people have the right to identify those who squirm behind such semantics as you have displayed as being juvenile and unhelpful.Who gets to decide what's allowed or not? People have the freedom to make sick jokes, others have the freedom to express their opinion on those doing so.

What a contrary crock of shite.The blokes an attention seeking,disrespectful,cvnt.Its also especially hypocritical and sad given the tragic history of the club he supports.Who gets to decide what's allowed or not?

Such an opinion has no place on social media or anywhere else for that matter.Have a word with yourself.

Squirm? Semantics? No chance. I stand 100% behind the absolute right and freedom of people to make tits of themselves with inappropriate "jokes". It's called freedom of speech.

Of course he is. And of course it's all of that. And that's the point, you get the right to say all of that too.

I must be out of touch......the mind fucking boggles.

It's not complicated. The post was in response to saying it shouldn't be allowed. Who gets to decide what jokes are allowed? You? Me? A government panel?
This idiot has the right to make a fool of himself. We have the right to call him out on it.

Yes, squirm. Yes, semantics. You're just too stupid to know that you are embarrassing yourself.
The thing about comedy - and I've been commissioned to write it for actual money, sunshine (Readers Digest, Irish Examiner, Weekend Magazine... amongst other outlets) - is that timing is everything.
"Comedy is tragedy plus time." - Chaplin. It's an old maxim - one that refers to a sense of common decency which Red Issue and those who would seek mealy-mouthed ways to defend them clearly lack.
What Red Issue have displayed here is neither funny nor appropriate. It is an affront to the right of free speech.
If you're too stubborn or stupid to understand that, good luck with the rest of your day because I'm too long in the tooth to be giving a shit about the likes of you.

Have reported you for foul language.Not a blue but been a member since long before the pair of you. I get banter, calling a random person out going about their day is just being a twat though, pretty simple. That’s how they behave and blues now revel in becoming them, that’s fine. Each to their own.

Interesting you get the right to be abusive in response. That's the thing, you do get the right to do that too.
Your long condemnation of the "joke" is totally beside the point. I don't approve of it either, but you seem incapable of comprehending that defending the right of that freedom of speech is not approving of what was said.
Still, feel free to have a tantrum and call me names. That's freedom of speech too. Well done for working that out.

They have some previous for tasteless tweeting I’m sure I remember seeing some awful stuff about the Barry Bennell trial.

I am sure the rags will be ok with the animosity this will cause between the fans of the two clubs.
The rags will be back on all aspects of the media crying if any LCFC has a pop in response.
We all know how this works with fans the damage is already done and all the apologoies by Glazer FC will not placate some foxes fans. This will be remembered for years especially as reg issue had the chance to remove it and even after getting so much flak they chose not to.
Scum pure and simple.

This argument is not always correct.Who gets to decide what's allowed or not? People have the freedom to make sick jokes, others have the freedom to express their opinion on those doing so.
Absolute freedom of speech is a myth.
Would you argue the right of a paedophile to use the freedom of speech to organise meeting children?
