I think the reason a lot of people boo when Gomes comes on, is because everyone in the ground except Bob knows he is’nt good enough and it is a really negative thing to do when your at home playing teams like Sjoke.
Booing certainly wont help the matter but it will let Bob know how we feel.
It is only rascist if the hispanics find it offensive (dont know if they do or not) As Brit is not rascist cos we DONT find it offensive
They do find it offensive. As the French find “frog”, the Italians find “wop”, etc.
Stop being deliberately obtuse. Are you Nick Griffin? ;) [/quote]
Why am i being otuse?
I am stating a fact that it is only rascist if they think it is offrensive.
You have enlightened me, so it is therefore rascist.[/quote]
Because I suspect you knew it was racist ;) It’s the sort of latent racism that my old man and his contemporaries used to display. You know the kind of comment: “There’s nowt wrong with blacks – every house should have one”. Delivered with a shrug and a smile and a “racist? what, me?” quizzical look. Deep down, they’re racist.
Anyway, I don’t know why I’m getting so concerned. They can all f*** off back home, for all I care
Good point Edinburgh, but one of my points is that racism won’t vanish while fathers are venting their spleen in front of their kids.
As far as what is racism? In many cases it’s not so much the words as the way they are conveyed.
When this guy called Jordi a “spic”, he wasn’t saying it in a jolly way. It was an insult and in his own, uneducated, way he thought he was being clever.
Apart from that, if he is wearing a Wigan shirt he is a Wiganer. If he’s doing something that you don’t agree with, fair enough, but this guy was just being offensive to a Wigan Athletic player because he was a foreigner.
Gomez deserves to be boooooood as he is a lazy waste of space. I do not think he should be booed for coming on but after he has had another lazy performance as fans we deserve to question his ability to pull on a shirt and by booing this is our way of showing.
Martinez also should have been booed on Tuesday as he lost us the game from a winning position yet again by being stupid with his subs and having no tactical knowldge.
I pay my money to watch the team and am one of the few who bother to go away from home so I will boo at every chance I get when they do not perform as they should. They get good money and are asked to try hard in training and try hard on the field that is all we ask as fans. Gomez does not try hard and there fore insults us as paying supporters.
Jason Scotland on the other hand does try hard but is not good enough to play the lone striker role so probably does not deserve to be booed.
As for being racist, I find Gomez offends me by being lazy and to be racist one must find another behaviour offensive therefore Gomez is also a racist.
Rant over booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
