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

People aren't arguing that it was the right thing to do, what they are arguing about is the double standards considering this happens mostly everywhere but yet again they focus on us, in this case a few young arseholes.

Heavy handed stupidity from the officials and aided and abetted by our own club, it's shameful.

It may seem like only us all time cos we take an interest, pretty sure Utd have the most banning orders in place. Maybe cos they have bigger crowds dunno don’t follow them that closely.

Could be the case mate, but this isn't the first time the club have immediately supported anyone but the fans, that's the way it looks anyway.

According to the Guardian, one of these hardened criminals was 14.
When some of you post in this thread about c#nts etc please remember that.
14 years of age yet City are treating him like Curtis Warren and some of our own comments are just as bad.

Exactly,we are a soft touch and bend over for anyone but our own fans, city have had a shocker here

 

[The perfect fumble]

Let’s hope we are impeccable tomorrow

Respect has to be freely given, not compelled, people must come together willingly, not threatened, coerced and policed.

If it's deemed okay for two daft pissed up kids to be slapped by our club and the coppers for not complying with the new puritanism, then fuck compliance.

Have a feeling I was near some of these guys in 115 during the game

The top hierarchy at the club who make decisions, directors upwards, as far as I know, do not have any previous connection with the club. They have been brought in as maybe specialists in their field with the sole intention of growing the business/brand. They have no prior engagement with the club no knowledge of the years of vitreol and huiliation heaped on them by fans of united. To throw the full book at two minors, police involvement, media onslaught, public announcements whilst ignoring other more serious issues in and around the Etihad and other stadiums has been done because it is an ex united player and a media darling club. As others have pointed out, just read Jonathan Liews articles on Silva/Mendy and his tv appearance discussing garnacho and onana. Unless he has been on a fact finding course regarding race relations, which I have not seen him mention, then he is just another journalist seeking clicks, as they all are these days. As I said in a previous post a few weeks ago this is all blown up by one thing and one thing only

A SUCCESFUL MANCHESTER CITY

I’ll stick this in here it’s sort of relevant but also off topic,the club sent a survey to be filled in by email,had a number of questions but it got round to offensive language and asking had I heard any while attending a game,ffs who hasn’t heard industrial language at a match be it City or any other game,I added a few comments on this saying it didn’t bother me depending on what was being shouted or spoken,basically I mentioned that the f word was mostly what I heard and in the heat of the moment sometimes people spurt this out,I hope they aren’t intending cracking down on this as yes I can understand if someone has kids nearby but ffs come on some see it as a bit of passion when either cheering the team on or showing frustration with something on the pitch ..

If they crack down on that they’ll be nobody left in the ground, will they have a squad of interpreters for European nights to catch the swearing tourists.:-)
