Just one more point � Is it only me that thinks that impending arrival of David Beckham and the LA Galaxy Rangers Rovers United City County FC is turning football into a circus.  I mean 24,000 turning out to see a performing seal.  Not to mention that we�re putting a �double header� weekend of football right in the middle of our season, this is all about making a little Greek bloke a little richer.

 

 
Don't like the implied racism in this post.  What does it matter that Terry Serepisos is Greek?  What relevance does that have to anything?  Why is it necessary to mention his ethnic background?  Furthermore, I wouldn't describe him as "little" - he appears to be an average height.  But also what is wrong with being "little" - we were all little once right.  One might imply a dislike of "little people" in the post, again a disturbing prejudice.
 
Make your point but leave the offensive stereotypes out of it.

I'm pretty sure he didn't mean it to be racist or anything. Don't take it too hard.

Someone's a little sensitive. I think he must be a Greek midget.

i agree with the geezer who started this topic up and i am glad he had the left nut to do it. Most of the people in the YF are clueless about the game and what chants mean

Thanks Mr Twig.  I'd forgotten to close this.  Seems fitting to end it with a piece of rampant trolling seeing as that is what it started with.

How's my driving? - Whine here
