Leeds United - v - Manchester City ***Matchday Thread***

[norfolk white]

Well sensibly said

[norfolk white]

Not sure who I want to lose out on the premier title more, arsenal or Man City, can?t stand either of them

[Pacaman]

Taking the knee, breaks for Ramadan, all a load of bolloxy

[Rev72]

Not bothered for the cheats or Arsenal but after last night I hope Arsenal win it.

Billy is spot on as well.

Indeed

Keep Religion out of Football especially that particular one!

[Oranje White]

Do you ever get into Vancouver mate?
You are right MCFC cheats and corrupt to the core.

No George, we don't go to Canada. Would love to have a beer with you though, one day!

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Someone deliberately wanted to create controversy.
The match could have been started later or arranged for the religious break to be at half time.
Sometimes you get people who are asking to be insulted.

Another example of the priority of the individual over the collective.

If it was that important then the players should have started on the bench rather than interupt a game that people have paid their hard earned cash for.

Media seems to be feeding into Leeds is full of racists nonsense as opposed to understanding the just f?ing get on with it mentality.

Really?

Billy - Sharia law for bad tackles next
Spaldy - An honor killing of the guilty players daughter? Second offense the wife or mother?
Pacaman - Taking the knee, breaks for Ramadan, all a load of bolloxy
Rev - Keep Religion out of Football especially that particular one!

Taking the knee relates to racism, not religion

Mention of honour killings, joking or otherwise, really?

Keep religion of out of football, agreed 100%, but "Especially that one", really?

None of that was necessary

[WTF11]

And its not just religion (ALL religions) that needs to be kept out of football;

Spoke to a few people I know who went to the game the anger was more that Theo’s was seen as yet another City/Pep ruse to waste time.

I am told around this time the following song was then sung

We know what you do
We know what you do
Always cheating
We know what you do

Tends to suggest something else as opposed to racism. Pep afterwards simply said they needed some energy and tried to play it down. If they needed energy then a bottle of water and an energy drink at the side of the pitch should have surely sufficed.

Have people at work who are fasting and if we are on work calls they don’t suddenly ask for a break to eat and drink in the middle of the if it.
