So, yeah, I'd contest that claim.

Racism is racism. I count anti homosexual chants just as bad, regardless of whether of not it was meant as "banter" or if some people got offended or not. The fact is he felt abuse aimed towards him. That should not be tolerated on any level, regardless of if the majority think its ok. I am linking this into the homosexual abuse. The majority of the nation don't have a problem with calling someone gay, a puff etc. They may mean it in a "oh lol look at you, you are shit way" but it will offend some people. Just because some people find it ok, doesn't mean it is.

I'm not sure what you are saying here. Furball said that if money was no object which it isn't for the villa, he would take Reo-Coker. I rate Barton I do, but he is a cock at the same time. Are you trying to say that sam "I double a players wages if he plays for me" Allardyce is a better manager, more astute and in general can do better business than MON?
MON is no fool. He knows his football, and is about building a team, rather than buying individuals for a season. Don't get me wrong I rate barton, but there is no I in team.
