Yep imo that makes it perfectly alright, he was man enough to deceive he should be man enough to take the consequences. Will you support the prosecution through the courts for footballers swearing or spiting or for those sent of for violent behaviour because that's the flip side of this.

Your right most of the songs I have heard about Sol have been pretty tame and quite funny, perhaps they did go to far that day but taking the action he has is only going to encourage more of it because it got to him, at least with our own Judas the hate inspired him and made him a stronger person, so much so that I even sort of, nearly, quite admire him these days. Nah what was I thinking

Maybe there were quite a few spuds that day who were gay and were throwing the insults around as much as anyone else.
