mate arrested on sunday

[malg]

Eh?

I've seen a few sexist posts but nowt else.

You've never seen anyone post the word 'gay' in a thread? The intent being that the thread is 'gay' - in a derogatory homosexual way? Mind you, I normally find it funny, as I'm not that easily offended.

*sigh* The old old old old point about the use of the word gay is still being made.

A lot of words have a variety of meanings.

New meanings for words develop over time.

It all comes down to intent.

If one intends to use the word in a derogatory way at a football match then they risk getting into trouble.

I don't really give a shit, as neither offend me, but if you're offended by one then you should be offended by both, otherwise you're using selective internet offence-taken-victimhoodnoia.

Sorry if I'm having a bad day but can I ask why is the term "rent boy" homophobic?

I think because rent boys have sex with homosexual men, and the song is meant in a derogatory way, therefore the people singing it are implying that if Chelsea are 'rent boys' then they are bad people = homosexuals are bad. On the other hand, maybe the lads singing it were actually using 'rent boy,' as a term of endearment, and if that is so then the lad deserves an apology......

Oh right, so rent boys are proven to be 100% gay because they go with homosexual men?
Errmm....I love this black and white thinking with no grey in between. All I can see is someone's been arrested for being derogatory against fucking Chelsea fans for fuck sake.

So everyone should be offended by a person who uses the word 'fag' to describe how it's such a bore to make the bed each morn?

haha cant see this one standing up in court, GMP have a habit of nicking people at city and sticking them on bail only to drop the charges some weeks down the road, only trouble is here that city will be aware of the arrest and if there is a charge pending they will ban him until the outcome, no charge is no ban from the club.

a lad whose 17 got arrested on Sunday, I and a few lads used to go on the s yorks bus, and we all know him and his dad, anyway his dad at the moment can't go so he and his sister goes to games , anyway after game [ he sits near away fans on 2nd tier ] loads was singing rent boys to Chelsea fans and a steward saw this young lad and reported him to police for this. now this lad couldnt knock a skin off a rice pudding got arrested, a couple of the Donny lot tried and did help him after he did get arrested. police was going to take him to cells in Manchester and would let him out at 6 ish, but he only had a few pounds on him so god knows how he would of got home. anyway one of our group said he would be in his care so he could get home. but why did a steward just pick on him, think that he might get a ban from city for having a bit of banter with the Chelsea fans. and why was some Chelsea fans in el3 on sunday, they cheered when Chelsea scored and there was a few of city fans was having a go

We don't need chavs like your mate at The Etihad. Hopefully he gets a lifelong ban.

A lifelong ban , really ?

I remember singing along with "Kenny Dalglish is a homosexual" in the early 90's.

It was a rather catchy.

Struggling to find it on youtube. Would appreciate a link if anybody can find it.
