Diego_Sideburns Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 The Club has announced its support for the Football League 'Enjoy the Match' campaign to curb abusive language and aggressive behaviour in an attempt to encourage more family attendance at matches. Alan Hardy has thrown his weight behind it, but I don't know if the Club is going the whole hog by throwing Gordon's weight behind it. The stewards are going to be proactive and it will be interesting to see what happens to a lad who appeared in front of us in the Chaddy recently. He seemed to be suffering from Tourette Syndrome - he kept shouting expletives like "w****r", "b*****d" and "Tony Blackburn". He attracted a row of the kids whom the new campaign is designed to protect - they were encouraging him to shout out 'naughty words'. http://www.oldhamathletic.premiumtv.co.uk/...,,10337,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostofcecere Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 And it's not just swearing either......... action should be taken against those people who thinks it's acceptable to sing "Die die Ricketts, Ricketts die" too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I thought half the reason people went to the football was to have a good swear? It's political correctness gone mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Is this going to end up like Father Ted? Are they going to chuck people out of the ground for swearing? Isn't this what the Family Stand's in grounds are for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 It's only a matter of time before they tie you to your seat to stop you standing up, gag you to stop you swearing whilst the club you up the to the tune of £20 or more for the privilege. It's starting to sound like the bad part of Pulp Fiction all over again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 This I presume is designed to stop swearing in English but it doesn't say anything about another Language. I'm sure my Dad could swear at someone in Welsh (and be abusive for that matter) which could come in handy with Welsh players (both for us and the oppo). I could swear at JP in French a bit too (or any other French speaking player). Could probably manage other languages but its unlikely we will play against someone from elsewhere. The regular stewards at Oldham don't strike me as ones who are all that fluent in English nevermind another language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
