The Brussels Broadcasting Corporation are a complete embarrassment to this country. Don't forget: Anti American, pro Palestinian, pro Brussels... etc

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

The BBC will prosecute you for watching ITV without a TV licence, The BBC will ask Welsh Rugby fans what is good about England.

So explain why your beloved BBC which is a publicly funded national broadcaster needed to ask such a hate filled question? Or maybe you can explain the editorial positives of the question? If you can explain the need for a national, publicly funded broadcaster to ask such a hate filled question I am happy to be informed.

Is the BBC'S next question what's good about Africa? Then maybe what is good about India? Then maybe what is good about Syria?

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

The context matters. This is akin to you telling a friend he's fat as a joke vs a complete stranger in a street. It would be taken completely differently. Wales and England have a friendly and established rivalry and are quite similar. It's Wales and England after all.

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

I'm not sure where you get the 'My beloved BBC' from... they are very biased politically ATM in a way that I think is damaging.


I am able to laugh at myself or, in this case, laugh at poking fun at my country of birth.


Offended people should try that sometime

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

I strongly suspect I have been to more live Rugby games in the last 2 years than you have in your lifetime. The Welsh fans are distancing themselves from the vile hate filled BBC comment. Hence the BBC withdrew and apologised.

Your attempts to show Rugby fans as racist is pointless. Yes friendly banter, Racist hate? NO!

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

I'm still waiting for the link stating where it's the Welsh fans that complained.

As an EnglishMan and rugby supporter living in Wales I think I know what Welsh fans are like.

We have a drink before the match and have banter, have banter during the match then go for a drink after the match and have banter no matter what the result.:D

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

We are not talkling about 1 person laughing at his country of birth. We are talking about a World renowned National broadcaster promoting racial hate.

The BBC asked this question, Not a few drunk fans, the BBC!!!!!!!

Ok.....:confused: Personally I assumed you were more of a musical opera man...

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

I know a guy who lives a small town called Telford left with brain damage after meeting the opposing teams rugby fans. Rugby fans are more violent than football fans in the lasts 7 years.

Stevenjowen said: “I won’t go to late Friday game again. So many uninterested in rugby. Awful drunken atmosphere not seen b4 in 40 yrs.”

“Idiotic” rugby fans were blamed for ruining the atmosphere at Friday night’s Six Nations showdown between Wales and England.

Friday night crowd fracas at Bristol is latest example of rugby's falling standards

THE owner of Salford Red Devils said he will ban for life those involved in ugly scenes which endangered young families in a shocking brawl at the weekend.

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

To be clear you object to rugby fans being labelled as racist (not that we've done that) but it's fine to portray them as violent lunatics.....

They'll smash you up but they draw the line at political incorrectness....

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

South Wales Police said there weren’t a higher number of incidents reported than at any other international match in the past.

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

So why did the BBC ask such a hate filled question? We know the English rugby fans are peaceful. Why did the BBC need to ask welsh fans "whats good about England?" Unless the BBC thought the Welsh fans would react with hate filled answers? So then the BBC could portray rugby or the welsh as racist?

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

That's up to you to figure out.

For the record I was in Cardiff that night with supporters of both sides and had a good time as always.;)

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

I was also in Cardiff, I can scan and post a picture of my ticket, Lets do it? Lets both post our tickets?

Yes I keep tickets, I have tickets from festivals in 1993 LOL

But no one can explain why the BBC asked such a hate filled question? It seems like the BBC assumed all Welsh rugby fans are hate filled and racist so would agree with this line of questioning. So Happy the Welsh fans kicked the BBC into touch///

Re: BBC Forced to drop racist advert!!!!
 

No, this is very simple. I'm a Welsh rugby fan and I know even less of what you're talking about than you do.
