Re: Football Season 2011/12
From what I am hearing from more reliable sources than the press it's nonsense. Usual ploy of trying to unsettle a player prior to a high-profile game.

It's up to the club to handle the punishment. His Tweet was homophobic, the joke being that gay men rape people, and uncomplicated in that it was undeniably him. I don't think he should be fired but this only a inconsistency because different clubs will handle issues in different ways.

You have rights but if you bring bad publicity to your employer don't be surprised if they want to let go you. Andy Gray and Richard Keys found that out.

Yes and if that punishment is way ott compared to other sanctions dished out recently for similar behaviour I don't think it a problem to question it.
Also we as citizens keep having it drummed into us that we have to respect everyone and be tolerant, until this guy messes up that is, then tolerance goes straight out of the window and the only possible way for it to be resolved is if he's sacked, if we really gave a toss about homophobia we'd make sure he was either better educated or given some advice on taste and decency before showing him the door at least.

Those two had a long history of it and probably deserved to be punished harsher but that said it looked like a convenient way of getting rid of them which I suspect they were going to do regardless.
