The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.Comment

Newcastle fans will wake up to see horrific scenes on Monday morning after video began circulating showing Magpies defender Danny Simpson laying bloodied and unconscious after a 4am brawl over the weekend.
The brawl kicked off early yesterday after Simpson, 26, got into a scuffle with a fellow customer queueing for food at a takeaway.
Witnesses said the Newcastle United defender hit the man, in his late 40s or 50s, knocking him to the ground. Simpson then left and climbed into a taxi but was dragged out by a different man and punched. He lay bleeding and unconscious on the street for about 15 minutes until an ambulance arrived and took him to hospital.
Aside from the details of the actual incident, video, mostly likely recorded on a mobile device, recorded the nasty aftermath of the confrontation.
Showing Simpson laying motionless on the ground with blood pouring from his face, the video captures a disconcerting scene in which some bystanders appeared naturally worried about seeing the Premier League footballer out cold while others seemed more interested in recording the incident to satisfy their distasteful craving for celebrity gossip.
The nasty footage of Newcastle’s Danny Simpson after he’d been beaten up can be seen below.
Some of the blame lies here.Comment

rag gets everywhere, can't be helped sometimes
Why the hell does a premiership player not look after themselves or at least pay someone to do it?I don't need a lift, I need ammunitionComment

Blimey, there's some saints on here.
Young lad thrown into fame and fortune at an early age, goes out and has a drink and gets into a fight shocker. I'm sure we'd all behave at that age and never put a foot wrong because we'd all really appreciate the lifestyle we had been gifted. Yeah right.SakhoPotatoesComment

- but i question why any professional sports person is....
1 - out at 4am,
2 - pissed,
3 - eating kebabs!
4 - on his own
5 - on top of how bad the 4 above are for a professional, getting into a fight as well!
I understand that yes, as a young lad you want to go out and have fun.
but what the **** is a multi-millionaire pro sports person doing at 4am, bladdered, on his own, eating ****e take away food.
Surely he realises that a premiership footballer, a) doesn't live a normal life, it's part of the sacrifice they have to make, they can't just pop out at 4am and not expect to be spotted, b) that they have certain responsibilities as role models c) he is putting himself into a situation where he is going to be a target, either for knobheads wanting a fight, or just someone who wants a picture that ends up being posted in the rag and he gets stick for being out at 4am
and finally - ****ing hell if i had his money, they'd be no ****ing way I'd be anywhere near getting into to trouble like that.
if i had a day or two off and the green light to go and get smashed, i'd be well away from prying eyes, well away from getting into any danger, be it a fight or caught on camera pissing in an alley, living it up in some swanky hotel, drinking champagne, with all my mates and **** load of fit models and if, with all that, I still really wanted a kebab, i'd give someone £50 to go and sort itLast edited by PTP; 06-02-13, 01:45 PM.i own everton fans on the internet....that's what i doComment
