The game is gone on 23:54 - Nov 20 by Swansea_Blue | I'd argue that someone feeling the need to do handjobs to everyone they don't like is more silly. Although being in agreement with Oyster does feel a little weird. Why is everyone so angry these days? Must be something in the water. |
Of course it's silly and daft. But in itself is it really deserving of a ban, if he/she had gone up and lumped someone then fair enough, where's the line though. Flashing someone the w@nker sign isn't a criminal offence, are we all due a ban when we sing songs about hating Norwich. | | | |

What about flashing someone? Asking for a friend. | |

The game is gone on 23:47 - Nov 20 by jeera | A grown up making w@nker gestures is part of football? No. It really isn't part of anything. It's a grown-up making w@nker signs. |
There's no malice behind it is there. Those players would've done the same when they were kids at football. | |

What if this fan was calling the players Mum a bad parent w*nker instead then. Then everyone wins. On Saturday at villa, I won't call adomah a w*nker but will instead aim it at his relatives ;) much better | |

Hi Jeera Ridiculous story ---> over-the-top reaction ---> truth comes out ---> "yeah but, it wouldn't surprise me 'cos that's the way football is going" ---> scream fake news ---> blame the internet because stupid people were tricked. Meh, I'm off to bed. | |

That doesn't work. Unless you're critcising your parents for not bringing you up better than that. Which mostly from what I've seen - apart from not showing you how to cook - they haven't done so badly so far. | |

None of the players seem to have an issue with it. In fact, some of them even partake in the banter and give some back. Which always gets a warm reception at full time from the opposition fans. | |

Town were playing Villa in the premier league, I had a single ticket very adjacent to the corner flag, villa had a corner Merson placed the ball ( his addiction problems were still fresh in the mind) I raised the point as loud as I could that 'I bet you would love a beer Paul' I am ignored. Merson takes the corner Dion Dublin scores near post header, Merson turns to me points and states that HE DOES NOW, I smile and applaud quietly. | | | |

It is a very reputable account, and they have confirmed later on that they have seen the letter from the club | |

Maybe you're right. Or maybe the letter from the club is made up and the Twitter account holder was taken in too. It all seems a little far-fetched to me, so I'm going to hold my dismay/shock/anger for now. | |

The account said that the fan has gone to them as a lawyer for advice on how to deal with it, the fact he has done so anonymously and they aren't naming club strikes me as less of a publicity stunt or attempt to get a bit of fame. When things like this happen, you generally think the worst of football clubs though.... http://www.talkchelsea.net/social/chelsea-shockingly-remove-hospitalised-fan-fro | |

Don't worry, the weird feeling will soon pass. | |

The game is gone on 11:08 - Nov 21 with 2993 views | Axeldalai_lama | "Fan asked to explain his actions and is exected to be banned" Could it not just be due dilligence by the club to check the offence wasn't racist/ homophobic or whatever? Is it the fan who "expects to be banned" or is it direct from the club? The whole thing is completely ridiculous of course and shouldn't have been given air. However the grown men, and women I assume, who do this for every throw, corner or free kick near the touchline are a complete embarassment. Especially because you know that it's every single time from them and they revel in it, as if it's the wittiest thing in the world. The odd time you can just about forgive, or to a particularly numpty player, and I'm not suggesting it's ban worthy either, someone just needs to have a word and tell them it's pathetic. | | | |
