charged for using Y-word... unless chants are motivated by hatred

The Yid term maybe should be banned
as its to complex to know how they mean it.

So the Spurs fans will be free to sing 'yid army' still as it seems to be some sort of term of endearment between them.

MTVN · 17-09-2013, 05:36 PM

He's right, its not hard to see the difference between Spurs fans using it as part of their identity and opposing fans using it as an offensive term

It's no different from Black Afro Americans using the N word as they have reclaimed the word. But if I were to use the N word then that would be unacceptable . Same with the Y word Jewish spurs fans can use it but other non Jewish fans should leave well alone.

Or the Celtic fans use of the term 'Fenian'.

It's always happened, hasn't it.... it's a Spurs thing, so obviously the opposing fans will use it detrimentally. Personally I couldn't care less... it's just a word. Even though I am a Yid, I'm also a West Ham fan so therefore outrank them all.

I'm sorry it was ruined for me by an episode of Bo Selecta where he pretended to be Michael Jackson and he was on about blowing his pet monkey bubbles. Just can't shake it from my mind....

No dissing Big Sam, it's simply not allowed.

Is that a Sheffield Wednesday strip I see in your avatar? Do you have a song? Are there any songs about knives and forks... or Wednesdays, hmmm?

Haha it certainly is.

Our anthem is Hi-ho Sheffield Wednesday which is a re-done version of high-ho silver lining song. We don't sing about the steel industry, whippets and flat caps anymore

This reminds of the time when somebody (connected with the away team obviously) made a police complaint after a Swans game, outraged that blatant racism was being allowed after the entire stadium chanted 'you Jack bastard' at a new black player..which is something they chant at every new player.

It was Man United now I think about it, probably Ferguson.

That's just typical. This stuff only becomes an issue when people make it an issue. They've used the 'Yid' thing for eons and no one's made a fuss until someone who's not a Jew becomes outraged on behalf of the Yids... most of whom probably couldn't give a toss about it.
