Kyle Walker newspaper story

47. I've seen it once. Not in a pub. In an institution.

It's not normal. It's not ok, either. I think he needs dropping. This is a big mistake. He looks like someone with issues. He has failed to protect himself from onlookers, the media, even the law. The worse thing is he's failed to protect his self-respect. That's not a euphamism. It's just... he's too respected and experienced to accept this as anything else than some sort of absolute last chance saloon moment, or maybe even a cry for help.

He can get help, sort things and comes back. No lack of sympathy. Anyone can make mistakes. Pressure gets to everyone. This is a catastrophic way to deal with things. He can do so much better.

It definitely does not sit well with me that this is his example to someone like Phil, and other young players, who see him week in and week out when they are growing up. That's the future of the club.

It's not the swinging sixties. It's not the heavy drinking macho seventies. It's not really much of a PC world out there so often... but it is a world full of cameras, video downloads... and it's a world full of people who understand and can help others avoid throwing it away so stupidly.

The video is sad really. For a 32-year-old he clearly has problems. This probably explains his form this season. He is supposed to be a professional athlete.
 
Not sure about the fuss.
If you get your knob out in front of kids then yeah bang out of order. In a bar full of adults???
Either don't look or move away.
Alone with a female who isn't involved with him, totally not on.
Immature behaviour, but surely nobody would have felt threatened in a public bar.
If you are that sensitive, maybe you are not cut out for the real world...

The irony of your last sentence is off the scale.

His conduct is unacceptable,in any public situation,and alcohol doesn't justify it.....there is no excuse for it.

You have spectularly missed the entire point of why it is not on to do what he did

As someone relatively neutral to this situation, the only thing that makes me uneasy about this is the effect on his poor kids having a dad who seems allergic to growing up.

As for the actual incident, maybe it's because I'm your average old school hairy arsed site worker still stuck in the early 90s, but I can't see why anyone would be getting all wound up by it to the degree they are. I've got mates way older than him whose knobs I've seen out so often in public spaces I could probably draw them from memory. And most of the time this is from women requesting they do so to back up whatever brag they've just made.

It's all about context for me. If Walker had been filmed wanking in a bus shelter or deliberately showing his pecker to unknown passers by, then it becomes a much more serious threat, but the video is just usual pissed up shenanigans between people who know each other well enough to not be offended by one another. He of course should know better being a well known figure in a public place, but from various things I've heard about him down the years, he's well known for not being able to handle his ale.

I know "the times they are a changing", but this is clearly just hi jinx among friends and a tabloid shit stirring like crazy. I can't remember seeing a single bit of outrage before when some lass whips her spaniels ears out at Glastonbury in front of a crowd of 100,000 including loads of minors. It gets put on the big screen, everyone goes "wheyyyyyyyy" and then proceed to get on with their lives without fuss, arrests or public outcry, and I'd argue that is far worse than some footballer showing his tallywhacker to a couple of drunken baddies in what looks a relatively quiet and uninhabited space.

People comparing him to people like Wayne Couzens need to give their head a proper wobble tbh.

I ordered a pint of Guinness in the pub once and I needed a piss so popped my pint on the table, went for my piss, came back and everyone in the pub was laughing their head off when I came back… I looked at my pint and there was a depression in the head that looked like two eggs.

While I’d been for a piss, my mate had pulled his cock and balls out in front of the pub and dunked his bollocks in my pint. Every man and woman who’d seen it found it funny, nobody complained, nobody was offended.

I just skimmed the top off the pint with my finger and drank it!

A weird man hiding behind a tree wearing a long Mac and then flashing some strangers as they walk past is not the same as what Walker did. Walker did a distasteful thing but there’s been an overreaction to it. There’s weirdo dirty bastard sexual predator flashing and then a daft drunk idiot being a daft drunk idiot. Walker shouldn’t have done it and should learn from this but it’s not that bad.

Every weekend? I’m 50 odd and don’t think I’ve ever seen a bloke in a bar pull his kecks down and do the helicopter.

Do they have 12 fingers where you live?

I knew a lad who loved to come up behind you wile you were sat in a chair and wop his cock out on your head. He was from Essex.

That was 20 years ago. Times have changed.

Haha…similar happened on a trip to York races I went on in the early 2000’s, stopped at the halfway house for some brekkie & a pint, only the entire pub was laughing at his acorn sized member & diseased sheep sized bollocks
