shaun.lawson Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Thats ok, I just wanted an excuse to continue with the therapist type signature endings to a post. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. P.S. did you enjoy the game and diggers? Mind you saying you had flu on jkb, did you make it to the game?? Game was fine. I really like the Wheatfield: it's usually been my favoured place to watch games from in the past, and was happy to be back there yesterday. I couldn't stay in the Diggers long largely because I was feeling weaker and weaker though: something which accelerated on my long journey back, and means I've spent the last 24 hours bed-ridden and feeling like I'm dying. It's probably swine flu: whatever it is, it's way worse than what I had a month ago for a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wibble Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I took an Irish girl to a Hearts v Hibs game once. For the record she was from the South and a Protestant, but couldn't have given a rats about the troubles etc. You don't realise how many people are screaming bigots until you go along with someone who is directly affected by the garbage being spouted. She was very understanding but for me it was a cringe from start to finish and it was embarrassing to be associated with the people who were shouting some of the bile. I had never really thought that Hearts fans had a problem until that day. Moronic behaviour in our support is much more prevalent than you'd sometimes imagine.

Good stuff, wheatfield is definitely best for the overall match day experience of a decent view and decent singing. Sorry to hear about your chronic man-flu, the sniffles is a biatch!

shaun.lawson Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Mild cold. I wish! These are the symptoms: - Weakness throughout my body; no energy at all - A dry cough which, when it starts up, just will not stop. Meaning I just cough and cough and cough. And anything sets it off: if I just sit upright, I start coughing. If I walk 50 yards, I start coughing. - Body temperature which feels (I've not checked it with a thermometer though) generally too cold; but sometimes too hot with random sweating too. - This one's the worst: huge problems with breathing. I'm asthmatic - and yesterday on my return home, I could barely walk, and kept having to stop to catch my breath. It's my asthma that's making it all so much worse IMO. No sniffles though, and very little sneezing. Just weakness, constant coughing and poor breathing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seats Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I know that this is obviously a very emotive subject, but with respect Scott, I'd ask why you didn't address the question that Seats posted? All he's effectively asking is "Where do we draw the line?" It's potentially quite an interesting debate, and one which I'm sure you'd be able to contribute well to. Again, with respect, smart-arsed replies really don't contribute anything. Cheers, glad at least one person gets my point!

I really hope you're playing devil's advocate, but if not, then you're an absolute fool. Racism; sees people denied jobs, abused in the street, assaulted, treated differently. Differing views of fashion; other than turning up for a job interview dressed like a tramp, i doubt, for example, that pink hoody was ever denied a job because of what he was wearing.

Correct, the discrimination of race that at one point was institutional and some would rightly argue still is, should never be compared to such a trivial matter.

The fact is that abusing someone for what they are wearing is no different to abusing someone for the colour of their skin. Why do you think one is acceptable and one isn't? I have to say I don't really remember there being a pink hoody slave trade, or in fact any oppression of pink hoody wearing people, but I'm not sure. I'm not too bright a lot of the time. I often wear pink hoodies, but then I am a bird. In saying that I can kind of see your point about ugly people not deserving abuse, to a certain extent, there's a lot of evidence to suggest that the beautiful people get it a lot easier and people are prejudiced against ugly ***** but its still not even close to racist remarks, or bullying a disabled person. If you're wearing a pink hoody and you can't take the abuse then don't wear it again, if you're fat and folk are giving you hassle then with all due respect go down the gym. There are some things though that you just can't change and its not acceptable to shout at people just trying to mind their own business and watch the game.

Seats Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 The point I am trying to make it that it is not acceptable under any circumstances to abuse someone. Yet, in a football environment, we think it is acceptable to abuse someone because of what they wear. Well, where should the line be drawn, why is it acceptable to abuse someone for wearing a pink hoody and it is not acceptable to abuse someone wearing a turban (for example). Who decides what is acceptable and what isn't? is it you? me? the police? the courts? someone else? I am not a racist, I live and work in a very international environment with people of differing nationalities and cultures. I understand the complexities of it (apparantly more than some on here) and the damage it can do. However, it strikes me that people (particularly in the UK) are always looking for an excuse to be "offended" and more often than not we see mock outrage which is completely out of context - do you think the asian guy the OP refers to is on a website complaining he was abused by hearts fans? Probably not, he was probably too busy shouting abuse at some "yam fuds". There is a danger that society goes too far and in a football context removes all passion and "banter" (for want of a better word) out of the game. We are seeing it now with the BBC and their attempts to tone down abuse following the Andrew Sachs debacle. Now they are trying to censor Mock the Week. Where does it stop? I was trying to instigate some debate, but if I have to explain it, the moment is probably gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do think a "utopia" would be a complete nightmare. For me, abusing a hibs fan (on the other side of the stadium coz i'm not brave) is part of the fun of the game, if he happens to be a fat, ugly, pink hoody wearing asian then I have to use my moral compass to decide which is acceptable to abuse and which I am not allowed to mention. If I decide (and I wouldn't just so we are clear) to pick on the asian element, then the guy next to me calling him a fat ugly git cannot criticise me IMO.

Societal norms are not 'decided' by a mysterious figure who places some sort of linear marker of acceptabilty on Britain. This is a typical sun reader attitude of "ITS POLIKITAL COLECTNESS GONE M4D!" and thats why i find it hard to take you seriously. You have to use your own judgement, taking into account a 1000 different factors very quickly. Saying this there are still general accepted standards British people would expect from a civilised society. One of these includes understanding the historical context of racism and the damage it has done in the past and how that type of institutional discrimanation can suppress whole peoples and stop individuals from achieving what they could if it wasnt for having a different genetic characteristic. Couple this with the ability to make the distiniction between this and making fun of a jacket. So if this is true then why does the daily mail, the sun and other mainstream media outlets get such a following? Well, unfortunately legislation has to be relatively linear otherwise there can be no consistency, which is why these businesses will latch onto unfortunate one off stories about someone being arrested or sacked for calling someone black etc... and wait for reactionary individuals to state BRITAIN IS GOING TO THE DOGS!11! While i get exasparated by these stories too, as it is sad that buearocracy gets in the way of common sense, i get even more exasparated at people moaning about PC correctness.

bighusref Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Agreed. It's easy to come on here complaining after the incident. I don't get this post and this general view. Somebody posts on a football forum about his experiences at a football game, seems perfectly acceptable to me. What will come from it is about the same as ANYTHING posted on this or any other forum. The lad just wanted to say something about it, like it or don't like it. It is even stranger that you feel this way even though you came on here following successive (IIRC) trips to Parkhead to have a go at the Police/stewards. So yeah, you are right, it IS easy to complain after the incident, you are an example of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are not prepared to complain before the incident then it's not worth their time posting here imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now now Dave, I don't think I am being unreasonable. Any complainer could at least complain at the exact time on their iPhone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
