Bristol City....what a goal to win the first leg against the Palace, now we just need a draw at home on Tuesday to be at Wembley for a chance to play in the Premiership. The football supporters amongst us will know that Palace manager Neil Warnock is a complete tool, and to-day his behaviour was a disgrace.
So come on City lets finish the job off on Tuesday.

Chesters you probably don't have Sky so do yourself a favour and either find a Sky pub or pop around a neighbours house who does, and watch the highlights at 10.30 pm this evening.

Go on spoil yourself, it will do you a world of good.

You mean 'those' Yiddos that have won more trophies than you in, say, the last three years ? 1a.gif 1a.gif 1a.gif

Didn't know what Gooners and yiddos where so did a google, the following extact was one i found.

Here's how the column starts:

If you’ve still got a foreskin, clap your hands. If you’ve still got a foreskin, clap your hands. If you’ve still got a foreskin, still got a foreskin, still got a foreskin, clap your hands.”

I am travelling very slowly up an escalator, surrounded by large (OK, actually pretty fat), loud, partially drunk men with tattoos and shaven heads. None of them troubled the Oxford and Cambridge exam board while at school. They are singing antisemitic songs. The foreskin song ends and a chant of “Yiddo! Yiddo!” fills the lobby.

Let me explain:

Spurs, the team playing Chelsea in last weekend’s Carling Cup Final, have a large number of Jewish fans. As a result, they have become known by other fans (not just Chelsea fans, not by any means) as the Yid Army.

This is not a title Tottenham supporters run away from. Indeed, as I left Wembley Park station, the first people chanting “Yid Army” were Spurs fans. I don’t know whether they were Jews or not. They were clapping their hands, but I am not sure if this meant they had a foreskin. It seemed rude to ask.

Perhaps they don’t realise what it is like to be up the other end, sitting with the opposing fans, where the Yiddo chants are not affectionate. And where they are, unquestionably, very much to do with Jews.

And this simply isn't acceptable. As I point out:

Booing black players used to be standard. People threw bananas on to the pitch. Now they don’t. One reason is that your club would be fined or docked points for a bad racial incident. Another is the huge effort made to stamp out the problem — the signs, the announcements, the interventions by players.

It’s time to do the same with antisemitism. It is wrong to turn a blind eye to do this. It is wrong to allow it to become normal to shout about Yiddos.

Everyone in football knows this goes on. It can't be ignored any longer.

C.

Usual thing, moaning about everything we were to physical, our full backs were too tough on his young wingers, the referee should have sent off one of ours, with ten men they (Palace) would have found it easier, referee did not add enough stoppage time, and the way City players celebrated the second goal was disrespectful.

The second goal for City was breath taking , worthy of any match, and yet he as a football man cannot give credit, what an example he sets or the English game, is it no wonder that as long as we have people like this in football management England supporters have a fixture free Summer.

I now its shocking isnt it laugh.gif

But weve been doing it for years The overtly anti semetic chanting seems to lose any racist conatation when applied in this case, May be we should rename our selves Round heads and Cavaliers wink.gif .



Right now to you Mr Round head rolleyes.gif Jedibond.

You mean 'those' Yiddos that have won more trophies than you in, say, the last three years ?

And how long did you wait for that? headhurt.gif
