This is the official complaint line for CKR's homophobic gestures. The guy is a prize tool and deserves to have a little FA investigation.

Can we please just man up a little bit, was it that bad that people were fainting all over the stadium, if anybody finds that deeply offensive they need to get out more.
You cant give out stick to players then moan when it comes back.

It's got nothing to do with "manning" up. It's about standing up to homophobic abuse. For the record I wasn't abusing CKR at all, and was deeply ashamed that he, a professional footballer, thought it prudent to make cock in arse gestures to the home fans.
I'm a little ashamed to say the least that there are people on here who appear to be defending his actions.

I don't mind players giving stick back but it was homophobic and that's what makes is unacceptable
Some of our lot see players like apes behind bars, where they can gob off at them then flip them off when they're worked into a lather.
Say Richards was across a pub bar, would they talk shite then?
As above. That.

Do you feel the same if a black player was racially abused? Your comment suggests footballers should turn a blind eye to racially or sexually motivated verbal abuse and and so where do you draw the line? On the pitch? Outside the stadium after a match? Twitter? Or even walking down the street?
I'm not trying to draw a reaction but instead trying to understand your logic to whether homophobic or racial abuse should be tolerated.

Spot on. It didn't offend me, but then again not much does. However someone at the FA needs to have a word in his ear.
He has also blocked @NotGusPoyet on twitter, who appears to have responded with making dozens of fat jokes at CKR's expense.
At Ewood I thought he was the best player on the pitch, strong, good in the air, quick feet. Certainly had filled out a bit since he played for us.
A former Albion captain said that he thought that CKR would have weight problems as his attitude towards training was so casual. He will make good money in his career, but will always be one of those players who could have done far better had he added application to his talent.

Not defending his actions but trying to add some perspective, these people that were so deeply offended by Richards responding, did they report the racist "kebab" comments to stewards.....no i thought not

And this is why homophobic abuse is still prevalent in the game... As far as I'm aware, no racist or homophobic abuse was directed as CKR only comments on his (considerable) weight. To me, that's part and parcel of football (rightly or wrongly), his response crossed a line and he should be punished.

Those are fantastic!
I'm not sure that many are deeply offended but it's just something he or anyone shouldn't/can't do. I'm not sure how many would be offended by racist kebab comments but it's not the point .. the point is it's behaviour that has been deemed to be unacceptable and punished. So if anyone is caught, fan, player or official they get punished. In this respect Kazim-Richards is no different to any of us

Exactly that. If a fan was stood in front of a policeman and made that gesture to a Brighton fan, he'd be thrown out of the ground and likely arrested. I'm not offended in the slightest, but that really isn't the point.
I'm really surprised at attitudes on here that seem to think what he did was OK! It wasn't an isolated incident in the heat of the moment if poor Colin is sensitive about his weight. He made the same gesture about five times.
It is the equivalent of racism and someone needs to make a stand. I'm shocked that the majority don't agree.
