Don't @ me. I'm not in any state to deal with any form of @ing after the last 7 days.

EOM.

Might as well give me a holiday HN because im farked if i understand how things work on here anymore and yes there is far to much PC bullshark and people claiming offence when none is intended by a poster. This new sensitivity is just about to much handle. Was fine last year for some to falsely accuse me of being a racist with no sanction. Shark if someone says that "same old aussies always cheating " isnt to be used that would be it.

Yep, me too. The comment in relation to the ‘she fell over’ chant has finished me off. I personally don’t chant any of this stuff because I don’t reside in the YF zone but to me chants like this are very much part of the game; they add to the atmosphere . . . and as far as I’m concerned if someone is saying you can’t chant stuff like that because it might be offensive or sexist or whatever, then frankly I don’t give a monkeys. There’s too much sadness in this world as we’ve witnessed this last week to be getting uptight about these kinds of things and mounting campaigns to have them stopped. Once you start down that track it’s a slippery slope. And by the way before anyone accuses me of sexism, misogyny or the like I just happen to think that Sarah Gregorious, and before her Narelle Sindoss, is the best addition to the Sky commentary team ever . . . leaving some of her male counterparts for dead. Goodnight.
