Big brother is watching.

 

my thoughts - i'd rather that police time was spent looking for people that commits more serious crimes rather than chase guys who attended a football match and called Sol Campbell a f**king bufty.

Rightly or wrongly, watching football is soon going to be akin to watchin snooker, sit down and shhhh!

SPL code of conduct..............awa n shiitte!

How do they propose to prove anything in court?

Would assume it's full video evidence, gathered from those plods that get up close and personal with their Handicam, for 'security' purposes.

Thugs & Hooligans have no place in football

 

Everyday folk who want to go and have a good time, shout at pantomime villains and enjoy themselves are being made to feel unwelcome.

 

Football if not already dead, is dying.

Time to start wearing a scarf and hat so next time at Ibrox wont be picked out!!

[Guest LondonScottish]

This is pathetic. I thought the song was quite funny.

 

Paul Elliott was on TV this morning saying how bad it was for black players and how these hooligans should be banned. Didn't hear him saying much when Drogba threw a coin into the crowd.

[Dandyjam]

Heard about this on the radio this morning. What will be the point in going to football matches soon if you can't sing, shout or swear without fear of repercussions.

 

It's an absolute joke that police time and resources is being wasted on this.

[Guest SS RED]

That is disgusting, they sang a song, is that honestly what the coppers spend there time doing? Sad c**ts.

Spot on. No wonder there's so much serious crime when they waste their time and our money on a joke operation like this.

[Guest LondonScottish]

What evidence can they go on like?

 

Get a lip reader in court to make sure he was singing the words printed and told by others?

 

A court of law will throw that out...............there is no way they can prove they actually sang the song to be honest.......

 

 

So anything said, shouted or sung is inadmissable in Court?

That was my point. In amongst a big crowd it would be very easy to say you were singing different words and who could prove otherwise?

 

None of these people will see the inside of a courtroom for this.

I wonder if the song was much different to our Nacho Novo song?

A guy got pulled up for that by a copper before the start of our recent game at Ibrox. Most Dons fans in the stadium at the time were singing but one guy was spoken to

[vanderark14]

For singing what? Nacho Novo! Park my Polo! ???

[OneZanderDiamond]

That's what I was singing anyway

[a1-don]

Singing homophobic songs that wish for someone to hang himself is sick. I hope they get done for it.

End of thread really., no more needs said. SSN have just put up a photo of 14 fans that the police want top talk to, and appealed for help from the fans. What a f**king joke.

Not end of thread then.

 

What a f**kin joke though.

[Tommy]

Crazy, plod stand and watch anti british clerics chanting their claptrap

and do zilch.

Then some fans do some anti player stuff and get lifted.

 

The law is an @ss.

[Dynamo]

I think it's shocking that their images have been branded about news programmes etc. Surely that' not allowed??

Also SSN advertising the crime stoppers number....gimme a break, these boys aren't a threat to the public.

Football player in being insulted shocker. Why Sol Campbell, why is there not this fuss about A$hley Cole when le Arsenal fans are chanting about him...complete joke. Catch some real criminals, or in fact, just catch criminals instead of wasting your bloody time on people who may, or may not have sung a naughty song on a summers day on the south coast of England.

Article from Northsounds old boy........

 

Our fans' chants are subversive, surreal - and very, very funny

Nicky Campbell The Guardian, Thursday December 7 2006

I was loitering with little intent in a bookshop the other day. The shelves are stocked full of stocking-fillers whose celebrity authors are careering from green room to green room, pumping up their pension funds. But has anyone done The Collected Wit of the Collective Wit of Football's Real Fans? With a better title it would be a blockbuster; with a longer title it would be a doctorate. Social anthropologists of the future should give the subject some serious study. They would gain huge insight into our world and our times.

 

These chants, songs and quips are refreshingly unrestrained by taste or political correctness, because this isn't humour looking over the shoulder and minding its ps and qs. It's full-frontal, uncensored British and Irish attitude. It's Swiftian and Wildean; it's Python and Milligan. There is an acute sense of the ironic and a profound sense of the absurd. Spike would have been proud of this Parkhead paean to Shunsuke Nakamura: "He eats chow mein. He votes Sinn Fein." It is utterly knowing yet beautifully faux naif as it sets up two outrageous stereotypes and renders them both completely ludicrous. It's also pure Glasgow. The guy who heckled Bono at a gig there recently has to have been a football fan. The sainted one did say unto his flock: "Verily, every time I clap a child dies in Africa." Back it came: "Well, stop clapping then."

Chants are often forged in the craic factory of the matchday pub, which can be a magical place. Don't you want to be there right now, that smell of cheap cigar smoke? Sorry Mrs Hewitt. It must have been one famous Scouse piss-up when this beauty emerged: "Don't blame it on Biscan, don't blame it on Hamman, don't blame it on Finnan, blame it on Traor

[NorthernLights24]

Yet more OTT reaction, seems to be happening more and more these days. It seems to be a vicious circle right now - the media hype up these stories and feed the public appetite for things to be out-raged at and obviously seeing how the public react the media then keep going and so the cycle continues.

 

Obviously the chants are in bad taste but that is what football chants are often about. They can be very un-pc and its what fans love about them.

 

I honestly dread to think about the amount of public money and working hours that have been wasted by the police in chasing these so called "criminals". Resources that could be much better directed towards more serious crime.

 

Honestly what next? Not so long from now can I expect to watch Crimewatch and a picture of a football fan being displayed while the presenter says "Forget your rapists, murders and child molesters, this guy is a real scumbag, he was seen shouting "You fat b*stard" at a footballer".
