I was talking to a couple of yids earlier about this, they laughed and told me I was making it up.

Is Daniel Levy offended
Probably not, but the black lawyers federation (am I allowed to post that) are doing a good job of being offened on his behalf.

OMFG!!!! The head of the racially biased "Society of Black Lawyers" wants to stop fans chanting about their towns perception? Will he be up in arms if Cardiff start singing 1-0 to the Sheep Shaggers?

That didn't work did it?
It is the logical progression though and a sign of modern British intolerance. The current thinking is that the term can be offensive, ergo it IS offensive. Same applies to sheepshaggers (think of the the Bellamy incident) and will apply to nancy boys. I think most of us on here (although there are probably exceptions) accept that human relationships are nuanced, complicated and many-faceted and that you simply cannot apply such clumsy, binary, yes/no logic to absolutely every sphere of human interaction. Sadly though the Great and the Good don't think like that, and any attempt to justify a more tolerant approach is met with hysterical counter-claims such as "So I suppose you think the n-word is 'just banter' do you?"

The thing being the N-word is perfectly acceptable to use when it is used within the black community to describe one another. So why is it not acceptable for a group of people that have been vindicated with the term Yid or Nancy-boy to use the term about themselves? It stinks of posh lawyer not liking common footballers so isolating them.

"One-nil to the nancyboys!" is only ever chanted as a response to genuinely homophobic chants from opposition supporters. It's an assertion by right thinking Albion supporters of our opposition to homophobia. Homophobic Albion supporters (and there are some) don't join in. In fact, some of them come on NSC and complain that they are embarrassed by the chant.
Frankly Lord B that excuse for using Nancy Boys "wouldn't fool a six year old" (To quote the lawyer in question). The club must stop it now. I'll give them two weeks before I raise a complaint. (Again to quote the lawyer in question).

They're already on the case. Gus is sending the team into matches with instructions never to get into a potentially risky one-nil situation until most supporters have left the ground.

He is also having a go about that "If you had a group of Afro-Caribbean supporters using the 'N-word', even as a 'defence mechanism', it would clearly be completely unacceptable. There are young supporters present when the chants are used.
"Use of the word, even in this way, could be seen by some as justifying other people using the term."
I expect to see a number of "gangsta rappers" in court any time soon.
This bloke is an absolute tool, how can he report Mark Claternburg on the hearsay of newspaper reports.
This country is far too PC and is in danger of alienating a lot of reasonable thinking people. It is all going too far. Over egging the pudding on this one. It is a very sad day when you feel like somebody can acuse anyone else of being racist when they use the term "coloured" etc. A total farce.
