Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

Tom Adeyemi has met with Police this morning & provided his statement of complaint. I understand he confirms the comment he heard was (cont)ConorMcNamaraIE Conor McNamara
(...cont) "You f****** black b******" Some witnesses have told Police they heard the word "Manc" rather than "Black"...Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’

no matter how quick you are are deleting them.
Does'nt even show i edited as i was so quick...
I was looking to see Fergies initial reaction to the Ian Wright accustaion, and whether his concern was for Ians wellbeing ?
Then i saw that article, and i swear i had 2012 and todays date.
Checked the site to see if it had been posted, thought it a bit odd at the time, me beating Bender to an article.

It will be very interesting now to see IF there's no hard evidence or proof that anything of a nasty,racist nature was said to the player if the player,his club and teammates and the media will,how was is generally put? "accept the findings of the impartial body in charge of the investigations and move on"I have one word to offer - honesty. I couldn't be devious if I tried. Joe Fagan.

I feel very uncomfortable commenting on his reaction, but....he has a right to be upset, he then turns round to face the Kop. An intimidating sight and it may have felt to him as though it was him v however many thousand the Kop holds these days. He's young and inexperienced and the Kop were singing the Suarez song. He probably took that the wrong way (as the chant was well underway before the incident began)...felt overwhelmed and vulnerable, worked himself into a bit of a frenzy and it was too much for him.Originally posted by wavydavy View PostI simply refuse to believe he has never heared that phrase from the stands before. I'm not condning that stuff in any way but his reaction was bizarre IMO.
Pure supposition but still.Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’

I've struggled to understand such a severe reaction but that is plausible.Originally posted by Shaggy View PostI feel very uncomfortable commenting on his reaction, but....he has a right to be upset, he then turns round to face the Kop.

I do think this is an odd one. There have been some suggestions that the guy may have heard 'black' when the guy shouted 'manc' - obviously we don't know if this is right or not. If there is no conclusive video evidence, if an investigation determines that the guy shouted 'manc' that could be as damaging (if not more damaging) to the club and the fans because the press and opposition fans will inevitablely accuse us of 'covering for' or protecting 'one of our own'.
I really hope that there is conclusive video evidence one way or another.Last edited by Exiled_red; 08-01-12, 01:56 PM.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.

But this case is different to Suarez. He will be (in the Courts) innocent until found guilty.Originally posted by Exiled_red View PostI do think this is an odd one.

If there is corroborative evidence he'll get what he deserves if there isn't he's an innocent man. Any paper take issue with that then he will have an obvious course.
