bigfatjoe1 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Flipin' check chaps. What's wrong. It's not like this is male emasculation driven by underlying commercial interests. That nice Lord Mulwhatshisface knows what he's doing. Look at the justice given to that terrible club Luton. It's all about the brand!!

Guest gillianfn Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Nah.......more appropriate alternatives include; Ian Ironside, Phil Starbuck, Chris Porter, Chris Moorex, Mick Wadsworth etc... Just spotted this - reminds me of when my brother started to take my son to Latics when he was 4 (he's 19 now) - he came home when he was about 7 ish and said "mum they were saying naughty words at the game" - I said "yes they do, but you're not allowed to say them yet" he said "shall I tell you what they said?" This went on for a number of minutes until he said "they said fck" I told him he wasn't to say it again, but then he said (with a really serious look) "no no mum, that's not all, they said H - E - L - L" (spelling out hell) So, don't say the H word but the F word is ok - I think that was the message he got!!! I've never been offended by swearing at football (being guilty of doing it myself anyway!) The funniest moment was Torquay years ago when Danoafc was told he'd get himself thrown out for his bad language and he said "Really? Good, :censored: :censored: :censored:ity :censored:" Very funny - apologies for swearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guernica 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. I agree. First it was smoking, now this. The world has gone sterile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lags Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 This hasn't a chance in hell of being a success. Odd isn't it those that makes these crass rules ain't the one's who actually have to try enforce them. Lets see how many stewards minding the Millwall fans end up in Oldham Hospital this Saturday. Do these clowns not realise the very reason Football is so widely followed week in week out is because of the intensity it's followers emerge into. That very reason alone (in many cases) makes swearing an involuntary act. The football authorities always get it's targets wrong in tryin to clean up it's act, target those that are outwardly and openly aggresive to the opposition and supporters you set of banana's!!

bigfatjoe1 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 ...and another thing, doesn't it make you laugh that officials want to sanitise the game/fans yet moan about the flat atmosphere at many games. Well, get rid of the terraces altogether and then stop working people from expressing their passion in a time honoured fashion and what will you get???? Another example of the working man's game being taken away. Still, I suppose it's only right that we should follow the fine example set by players, coaches and managers who have learnt to voice their frustrations in ways that Shakepeare would be proud of...

RoytonBlueLad Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I remember them trying this a few years back and the first chant from the Chaddy was "swear if we want to we'll f****** swear if we want to" followed by a rendition of "f*** off Hardy, f*** off Hardy".

Maybe so but I'll wager only those that are swearing from their seat and who appear harmless to others will be targeted! you know it, I know it the world knows it.

oafcprozac Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) This was a badge produced by Latics for a previous unsuccessful anti-swearing campaign. Note: The badge is actually tangerine, but somehow my scanner has made it less colourful. Yeah I remember those, handed out during my first season of 86/87. There was a large luminous sign at the front of the ochdale Road End if I remember correctly. Not sure how successful that anti-bad language campaign was as most of my industrial language and adult 'potty mouth' was picked up by standing in the middle of the Chaddy End with my owd fella. Of particularly interest was when I discovered just how quickly you can fit seven or eight swear words together, this was particularly apparent during a very windy day on plastic paradise against Birmingham, we'd just taken a late lead through a Tony Henry penalty when the wind saw to blow an inswinging corner into the net off Linighan's head, to secure Brum an unikely point!!! It was almost like machine-gun fire from the guys behind me...........very impressive example to a ten-year old. Not so sure my headmistress (a nun) thought so come monday morning! Happy Days!

martjs Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 At the end of the video it says "Please respect your fellow supporters in family areas of the stadium" so it makes sense to me to make one stand Non-Swearing and the rest... Hang on, though, didn't one stand start as Non-smoking and then.... Oh. F&*#^ ing hell, swearing's always been part of watching football. Next there'll be no chanting, no singing etc. It's a slippery slope, I tell ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky_Latic Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Why's everyone thinking this is a new enforcement. There's been signs around BP telling people to "mind your language" for years. Only place they'll be able to enforce this properly is the Main Stand Paddock, like the used to with the Lookers Paddock. Not that it f**kin stopped anyone, anyway.

My brother was threatened to of been kicked out of the Lookers one time when we played City for swearing at the City fans, to which my Dad went absaloutly ape at the Steward (and my Dads someone who hates it when we swear in front of him) basically my Dads point was "why do you always pick on the weak? there shouldnt even be people in our end in City shirts". It is true Stewards always pick on the weak like when Eyresey scored at Stockport and the only person that got arrested was a 13 year old lad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
