WORST CASE SCENARIO

Me: "Yeah our supporters bar is called Dick's Bar because of Dick Knight"
Opposition fan: "It's called Dick's Bar? You love DICKS, you're a gayer"
Me: "No I don't. I love f***ing beautiful £100 million pound stadiums in my town for my team that are better than yours. Now f*** off"

I think those of you 'moaning at the moaners' and saying we've had a sense of humour failure have missed the point a bit. I've got no sexuality issues and I don't give a shit what opposition fans think of us, but I'm prepared to bet that a sizeable number of them won't go "Ah Dick's Bar, named after their old chairman Dick Knight. Nope nothing remotely funny about that."

Again, not a problem, like I said I don't give shit what they think. But some people on here often moan about the homophobic abuse from opposition fans and wish they could think of something else to chant. I would argue that having a bar called "Dick's" is if anything going to encourage that, as I bet that for every away fan who smiles at the witty post-modern irony another 100 will guffaw loudly at having had their prejudices re-enforced. I don't mind the homophobia, but if you want to stop it this is hardly a step in the right direction.

Yep. And its not the first time. Remember the pink (when viewed from a distance) shirts with the NOBO sponsor in 90-91. I got untold grief wearing that. It's not an issue with me. Live and let live and all that but it does seem sometimes to set themselves up for unnecessary ridicule.
