There are other threads for all the hoolie-porn and lawbreaking, as I'm sure you'll have already flocked to.
This one is solely about a representative of your football club being a mean little man to a seven year old boy, purely and simply for the purpose of boosting his own ego.
Nobody is going to defend breaking car wing mirrors, or racist or homophobic abuse (well, I’m sure some of yours would defend the latter on the grounds of LADZ BANTZ), it’s stupid and illegal. As is spraying graffiti on walls, of course.
This thread isn’t about that though, it’s about a small...
It's a good job no Palace fans made any homophobic gestures or comments all game then, isn't it? Oh, oh hang on....
If one of ours has done that (the racist stuff) then I'm embarrassed and disappointed, but regrettably, he won't be the only individual displaying disgusting behaviour on the day...
I agree. It does look like the bloke, from what I can remember (he was half way across the pitch so didn't exactly get a good view), but I think we should probably be bigger than them on this one and leave him be.
On second thoughts, I don't think it can be him, because his LinkedIn profile suggests the following:
A self-motivated, professional and highly capable individual, with transferable skills gained within a large banking organisation. Able to capture the essence of challenges quickly and...
No idea, but if he says he's the voice of Selhurst Park, it could be. Unless that guy is the one who sits in his box and announces the goals, sometimes when they've been disallowed, because he can't actually see all of what's going on from his vantage point.
Yeah, thrust it in the boy's face, waited for a couple of seconds for his eagerly anticipated response, then- when he didn't get one- gave it the old "Haha, only JOKING!", no doubt whilst congratulating himself on his own moment of comedy brilliance.
Of course not. We will be a veritable blizzard's worth of snowflakes. I know that, and I don't care.
As I said. If he'd said "Brighton are going to lose, aren't they?" to the kid, that would have been fine. Pretty standard. The Palace junior team player mentioned on another post as having given...
More likely they were high fiving each other in the Directors' Box, I imagine. What larks.
I find myself wanting to high five the lad myself for not responding at the time. If it was anybody's son on here: well done to you for raising a fine boy :clap2:
On the plus side, well played to the seven year old hero for not responding.
There was a brief moment where I feared he'd not understand the big brave Palace announcer was taking the piss and, would, as many small children would in that situation, try to come up with an answer (like, God...
It does indeed. I'm sure Parish & chums thought it was absolutely classic bantz, just like they do with all the cheeky LOLZ that the Always Ultras get up to.
Me, I believe it was snidey and frankly typical of their club. I wouldn't expect Richard Reynolds to mock a seven year old in a Palace...
To be fair, Loftus-Cheek was probably their best player at the weekend (far better than Zaha, for example, despite the obvious plus point for them of his goals). He might turn out to be a top player one day. Which nobody will ever say about Puncheon or Townsend. Brave man taking the piss out of...
Forgot about this until last night. And I can't say I really wanted to talk about CPFC much more after the weekend. But if you missed it, this is something that grated with me during Saturday's game and rather summed up their attitude as a club.
Half time at Castle Greyskull. A children's...
