Two minors suspended by club for offensive chanting at Brighton game | 17 year old charged by GMP (p29)

[Hes the left back remember]

Always a few cretins about as seen at most grounds.
Brighton fans were good saturday with the silence and also joining in the applause for Franny.
City very quickly come out with a statement which is probably correct,they may come out with one regarding our fans treatment in Istanbul soon.

We were slagged all week in the lead up to the Munich anniversary Derby for things we were apparently going to do to ruin the occasion.

We were predictably impeccable and won the match comfortably. I’m expecting the same on Sunday.

It all boils down to a lack of respect in society.
City are too quick in condeming our supporters.
Still waiting for them to arrest the Liverpool fans who threw the glass of coins.
You watch on Sunday see if we disrupt the minutes silence.Not a chance.

Seriously, in this day and age there isn't much else City could've done once that video came to light and went viral. Rightly or wrongly, fans could get away with offensive chanting back in the day and it was also done by a lot more fans back in the 70s and 80s but society has largely moved on from those days.

I'd be lying if I said I hadn't come out with unpalatable stuff at football matches down the years but the last thing I'd do upon hearing about the death of Charlton - or anyone else for that matter - is to start singing songs mocking him. And in an age of mobile phones and social media, those chants aren't just getting confined to being sung by half a dozen people on the concourse and heard by a few dozen and that's it. Within hours hundreds of thousands knew about it, and you have to question the idiocy of whoever thought it was a good idea to upload the video in the first place. Did they expect the fans singing it would be getting a pat on the back from the wider footballing world?

 

[yeah whatever !!]

RIP Bobby, have a kick around with Franny x

Already payed my respects to Bobby Charlton on here , but he was never the best ever England player , he played a lot of games and scored goals but the best player is a player who had everything , could score , tackle , dribble , pass , shoot , head the ball and was tactically astute Charlton does not meet all those criteria but Colin Bell does.

 

[VOOMER]

It’s football you fucking nob head.

Exactly, I never met him and I'm sad when most people pass. He kicked a ball about and survived a plane crash. Never really made good money even for the times. Probably relived that plane crash every time he fell asleep.

In that 66 Final, it was Alan Ball who ran the show.
