Probably me being a bit of a prude and in spite of the 'F' word and a (few others choice expletives) being shouted by me in front of my 10 year old daughter during the infamous Willard incident, IMO the 'C' word crosses the line when used in a public space where there are likely to be a sizeable number of kids. I know the argument comes up time and again that pro football is a haven for men to watch a match and express themselves but the same people defending it are the same ones who argue that the lifeblood of football is the fans and they need to attract youngsters to live football and get them interested. Yes they will hear and pick up words wherever, but watching grown men in large groups chanting stuff like that, regardless of the justification or subject matter, especially as it is not even related to the game or football in general, is not something to celebrate or find amusing. A bit pathetic IMO. Banter is one thing abuse another.
There's the family stand available if you don't want swearing around your kids. I think swearing is more common nowadays, personally I don't swear very often but to some it's second nature
I get you’re not impressed with swearing around kids at games, and it’s fair enough, but please don’t get offended by who they are targeting in this instance, abuse is 100% justified on this occasion
Nowt to do with the subject matter although keeping politics out of sport is a good idea albeit it is rare opportunity for a group of like minded individuals to vent their common anger and better than rioting on the streets. Not arguing with the particular PoV on this occasion although I think the target of their anger should extend further than just one person.
Is it soundproofed RH? At that level and those numbers I doubt that it would be inaudible anywhere in the ground or even outside the stadium.
It might be factually correct but its a **** chant, there's supposed to be humour and tune in there for goodness sake. Although given the brain cell count and grasp of the English language of your average Leeds fan it's probably par for the course for them!
As a counterpoint I think it's mint and he fully deserves it. The fat, useless, racist, misogynist, philandering, crony pandering, mendacious cunt
its just a **** chant, also although I do swear ( a lot at times) , maybe because of my age, I rarely swear round women ( football matches excepted) and the 'C' I never use round women, as I say mebbe its an age thing dunno.
yeah tbf it was just a throwaway thing I came across and thought was funny for what it was. on a separate point, interesting how people still think it's ok to swear, but not around women. I get it's a generational thing, but not sure how many women today would feel about that. not sure how they would feel about being considered delicate little flowers, that shouldn't be subjected to hearing a swear word. in the same way that women are judged massively different for swearing, than men are
I obviously don't know what all women would do, but my wife would tell them to stop being sexist c*&#s.
