just like jo brand banging on about eating cakes

how good would it have been if, as a protest about the racist nature of the comediens material and ****e jokes, the black players, the kick it out campaigners and anyone else with some balls [non talced] all walked out during the 'comedy' interlude. this would have been a massive statement of what is not acceptable at this level of association with football.

Well, no actually. Read my posts earlier. The two could not be more different. Have you ever seen him live? I mean, not on HIGNFY, but as a stand up?

Just read on Twitter that Gordon Taylor has just been on Talksport blaming Hunter for "ruining" the PFA dinner by being offensive. Says they'll stick to football talk in future. What a clown he is.

He should do everyone a favour and resign.

The polar opposite of Carlisle. What a snake.

Being described as "nonchalant and unapologetic", an unashamed attack on Hunter - this after being totally not arsed last night when asked by journalists. He also called Oliver Kay -who reported Taylor's shrug of the shoulders last night - "a mischievous journalist".

The problem is he ultimately doesn't seem to have to answer to anybody.

You'd think the members of his organisation would do something about him, but they're not the brightest sort for the most part.

Brian Moore @brianmoore666
Gordon Taylor saying they can't be to blame for PFA dinner scandal 'It wasn't down to us be negligible.' [sic]

[McDermotX]

Excuses, excuses........................just like that Suarez fella, ye hung out to dry.

Talksport asked Gordon Taylor if he would take responsibility for the new racism row. Taylor replies with 'free country'!

[Sarb]

Brian Moore is a **** aswell. Gordon Taylor has no ****ing remorse. He is unbelievable. Was brilliant when Barton absolutely panned him.

[Joey Jones]

I would love to see the press turn on Taylor now.

[Aj34]

Just listened to that interview. He's a complete ****pig

PFA statement. They're blaming Hunter, which is nice.

The PFA regrets the offence caused by the performance of Reginald D Hunter at last night's Awards ceremony in London.

We share the strong disappointment felt by our diverse membership at the choice of language throughout his appearance. We would like to make it clear that we feel any use of such language is wholly inappropriate.

He was booked on the basis of his recent television appearances however clearly his performance last night was of a very different nature. Whilst we are not generally made aware of the material a comedian intends on doing, it is clear that the language used was unacceptable.

In a conference call with Reginald and three members of The London Speakers Bureau through which he was recruited, it was outlined the makeup of our audience which would be widely diverse including around 25% of women and ages ranging from 18 to 80. It was made absolutely clear that swearing or any racist references were to be avoided. Therefore we were totally dismayed that the performance was the exact opposite of our requirement.

We share the disappointment felt by our diverse membership at the choice of language throughout his appearance.

Finally, we would not like this incident to detract from the huge efforts put in by the PFA and other stakeholders in the game in anti-racism initiatives and we take this opportunity to underline our commitment in this area.

They should have stopped him the first time he said the N word then.

[Reece]

It was made absolutely clear that swearing or any racist references were to be avoided.

If that's true, and Hunter agreed to it, then it was a bit silly of him to persevere along that road.

But as Joey said, they could easily have stopped him at any moment.

And it didn't appear that Taylor had a problem with it last night at the event so....
