Perhaps they should just tattoo **** on his forehead. Easily recognisable then

Just to satisfy my own curiosity. How on earth do you ban someone from a football ground(s)? How do you physically do it?

Not sure how it works if done through the club, probably just stop the person aquiring tickets officially.
If done through the court via a football banning order the person usually has to turn up at a police station at certain times/days to make it impossible to be at a game (imagine this is more difficult these days with game times all over the place).

That cant be true, surely!

Imagine that, a game gets rearranged (like our Newcastle game, from Saturday to friday)....

"Oh ****ing hell, i'd planned to go for a drink friday night, now they've rearranged the game, i've gotta go spend a couple of hours at the ****ing police station!"

I'll go for the next moral crusade option. Do I win £5?

People with banning orders aren't allowed within a certain radius of the ground on a match day, if they are seen by police or stewards they are arrested straight away until the game has finished and it is ensured that there will be no trouble around the ground.

Also they have to hand their passports in everytime England play away games.

Dont know how it works for PL away games though

It definately used to be true, I knew a lad who got a banning order after being arrested at old trafford (believe it or not for singing the gary neville shags his ma song) and was banned for a couple of years by a court.

He had to turn up at the local police station whenever Liverpool were playing.

Not disputing what you say, but it's the most ridiculous 'rule' i've ever heard

[Gibbo]

It's definitely not the same recently, I've been having a beer with a mate of mine who is banne from Hull City while they are playing, and he doesn't have to report to a police station.

[DaveMc68]

Fair enough, this was quite a few years ago. I guess it also depends on the judge at the time and what conditions he chooses to attach.

Liverpool Football Club has been forthright and resolute for many years in its stance against racism and any form of discrimination.


The Club has worked actively to combat discrimination and has been at the forefront of social inclusion and community activity in football, winning awards and commendations for its work throughout the world. And this Club is determined to continue its part in working with the game's ruling bodies and the other organisations active in this area.

Whatever the outcome of what is now a police investigation, all of us are deeply sorry for what happened on Friday night and our players and our Club pass on our sincere regrets to Tom Adeyemi for the upset and distress he suffered as a result of the matter at hand.

Our supporters are renowned throughout the world for their outstanding commitment, passion and fairness. They are drawn from nationalities across the globe with widely diverse backgrounds and heritages. The actions of any one individual do not represent our fans. Their stance on these issues is just as resolute as the Club's. We have a very clearly stated public stance on discrimination and intolerance with dedicated staff that work hard daily on programs in this important area.

Regarding the incident that occurred on Friday evening, we have given Merseyside police every possible assistance we can and will continue to provide the necessary support to their investigation in order to ensure this particular incident is dealt with properly. We will continue to take the strongest possible action(s) against unacceptable behaviour during our matches.

The odd one or two cunts in the crowd or on the internet should never change that!

Out of curiosity - would he get offended if someone called him a white cunt as well seeing as he has as much white genes in him as black ones? What do u guys think??
