Wayne Brown rumour

[Dour]

This thread has turned into a political debate.

Chrisfilter - please refrain from using the old word Tory the correct definition is ****.

By the way Maggie Thatcher was the biggest **** this country has ever seen.

Steady on, lad.

You have to wonder how the Daily Mail have got this much detailed information about it.



Leicester City are considering the future of player Wayne Brown after an alleged racially abusive outburst in the Leicester dressing room, leaving him to see if he has a future in the English game.

Contrary to reports earlier in the week, it was not merely Brown's boast that he voted for the BNP at the General Election which enraged his team mates, but the language and terms he used while doing so.

Having returned to the dressing room after training, a discussion was taking place between a group of players about the election results. Brown first told a stunned, racially mixed group of players that he had voted for the BNP, and was met with a volley of protest.

Rather than defusing the situation, the Barkingborn player, where BNP leader Nick Griffin was wiped-out in the election by Margaret Hodge, and the party lost all its council seats, launched into an abuse attack on against ethnic minorities whom he claimed were 'killing this country'.

The reaction was furious and several players pointed out that, not only were Brown's phrases and views unacceptable, but that he had Asian, black and mixed-race colleagues. The argument spilled over into a treatment room, before a senior player intervened, told Brown that his views were unacceptable.

Seemingly unconcerned at what he had said, Brown went to the canteen to have lunch before, faced with a squad united in their condemnation of him, Brown departed, for what is certain to be the last time. Leicester boss Nigel Pearson suspended him for the play-off semi finals, and has made clear privately he no longer wishes Brown to be a part of his squad.

I love that part - I can just imagine someone like Bruno saying, "your views are unacceptable" and that being the end of the issue.

Wayne Brown is not a cock for voting for the BNP, we live in a democracy and he is entitled to vote for who he wants.

Wayne Brown is not a cock for telling people who he had voted for and his reasons why. I'd quite happily do the same.

Wayne Brown IS a cock for telling people who he fully knew would take offence which would likely spark a divide in the camp, 2 days before a huge, huge game for the club.

 

[DesertFox]

Wayne Brown IS a cock.

I think finally we've got to the nub of the issue.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

That must be the first time in TB history that the word "cock" has been mentioned without the words "Michael Morrison" and the drooling smilie in the same sentence.

Bruno would have stayed 'neutral'

 

[OldGit]

Post reported for being offensive.

Any post containing the words "Maggie Thatcher" and "Barking" is merely reporting fact

 

[PONTUS KAAMARK]

If the Mails assesment is true then Brown cant play for us again. Problem is know one else will want him ether.

So that means potentially we will have a racist and a player potentially on some sort of charge relating to a stabbing sitting around doing nothing for the next 12months picking up big salaries.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Well I voted BNP ....................

And I'm still out for a Ruby tonight ! :icon_razz

You f***ed off yet?

After the hugs I got from Blue Maniac on Wednesday night I'm not sure a cuddle with you will ever be the same again......

:icon_lol: At least someone enjoys it.

The problem is that they've been used to criminalise anti-social behaviour, which too often means the behavior of the mentally ill, or the normal behaviour of young people

Er, no. Just no.

In fact, I think we should strive for a place where religion has no place in politics. Atheisim a prerequisite for each and every MP.

I don't know much about you, but I'd be willing to believe this is the best thing you've ever said, anywhere, ever.

So he did find somebody to share a room with - the unfaithful bugger!

We're finished BM - Homer, you can have him!

:icon_eek: I came straight home as soon as I managed to drag Clee Jr away from the stadium.

It seems we've all come to the conclusion that Wayne Brown is a bellend. Agreed?

 

[Cate Fox]

Agreed... can we shut up with the politics now? :icon_lol:

Well said.

No wonder we looked a bit shell-shocked Sunday. Testament to the squad for pulling their sleeves up Wednesday night.

Cor, pretty much what I was told then! Wonder which player it was who leaked that to the press!

probably the one that was most offended

 

[beaumontfox]

Errr did you and me chat on FB thursday night about this?

 

[Cate Fox]

Errr did you and me chat on FB thursday night about this?

nope...:icon_eek: I was being slung around in a go kart Thursday night.

 

[beaumontfox]

Nuts! Well if you are on fbchat now...........

 

[Orifice]

This world is going crazy.
How come no-one is allowed to offend anyone these days?......

 

[LCFCmonkey]

Why don't we just put Wayne Brown and DJ in a room together. It's a win-win situation there.

 

[David Gwilliam]

Honestly? Yeah, it is my view. My Grandparents are Tories, and I love them, but I find their political views abhorrent. What's worse is that they're Northern, working class Tories - unforgiveable.

I just don't understand how anyone who sees themselves as a decent an honourable person can reconcile that with voting for a bunch of backslapping, bigoted, priveleged, nepotistic old curmudgeons.

For me, there is no good reason to vote Tory unless you truly believe in survival of the priveleged. Sadly, hate rags like the Daily Mail and The Sun dupe people into following the will of the rich - big business.

I'm not anti-capitalist, I'm just anti the old guard who are only in it for themselves.

Case in point of why I hate Tories is our new 'women and equality' minister. She's actively voted against gay rights for years! I mean, seriously, WTF? A homophobic equality minister?! God help us.

I voted Labour because I believe Pete Soulsby is a man of integrity and because labour are closer to my philosophy. I only reveal this so that Chris will know my criticisms come from the same side.

Democracy relies on people accepting that good and thoughtful people do not necessarily agree with you. I know good and thoughtful people some of whom are Conservative and some are LibDem. I think the Greens and UKIP are silly but I am sure their voters are well-intentioned.

If you believe that people who disagree with you are either villains or fools you step into BNP or Socialist Worker territory. If those who disagree with you are fools or villains you end up with concentration camps.

Yes the Daily Mail is frequently obnoxious and hateful. However, Indy writers such as Johann Hari on the monarchy and Yasmin Alibhai Brown on America need no lessons in hate.
Johann Hari did a hate filled attack on the historian Niall Ferguson which reminded me of Barry Fry attacking the abilities of Jose Mourhino.

You are very lucky to have had the chance to know your grandparents and to find themk "unforgivable" because they disagree with your politics is sad.

David Starkey said "We should never make gods of our opinions."
Remember you may be wrong.

Enjoy your grandparents company and beware of certainty.
