There are some absolute GEMS in there.
Now, is it better to be known as the bloke who did a stupid salute and got caught......or the bloke who doesn't know who Hitler is :lolol:
I think that's what the FA will do....and rightly so. No one (who is sensible) is calling for a ban or anything like that.
Still not sure which aspect is OTT?
The FA wanting to speak to a player who has been seen to do a hitler mimic is very different to the social media reaction which, I...
If the FA didn't look at players being caught doing alleged Nazi salutes then that would be BONKERS.
Am I outraged by it? No. Clearly he's just been a bit stupid and it was a very silly joke that was ill-judged.
But it would be crazy for the FA not to be seen following this up.

"Who's that guy?" asks one of the remaining party.

Fade to credits.
I mean, I've never worked in PR, but SURELY the right response would be "You've been caught out Wayne. Everyone knows it. Apologise, say it was a rubbish joke which clearly was in bad taste and you've apologised to Max Meyer for it".
People do stupid stuff sometimes.
