leeslover Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 It's soles of the feet that are offensive, soles of the shoes works as a similar sort of thing. It's absolutely not something we should be doing, it would be on a par with throwing bananas at the owner if he was black. Play the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says nothing about what he's like as a football club owner and everything about offending him based on where he's from.

wiseowl Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 There would be utter fury (and maybe blood spilt) if anyone went down the route of "sole showing/shoe bashing" etc. Exceedingly culturally offensive and just not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worcester Owl Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 There’s a simple answer to all this and we don’t have to tie ourselves in knots over potentially culturally insensitive behaviour. ”Mr Chairman, you have perhaps tried your hardest during your ownership of this club and we are told that you have spent a great deal of money to keep it going. However, it’s clear that things have not worked out as you or we would have liked. It is therefore time for you to put the club up for sale, and revert to being a football agent. Forgive us if we don’t want any more of your players. And please take your dear brother and Owen of the Yard with you.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
