Something happened at the Killie game that has really quite rattled me.  :008: :008: :008:

One of the more "controversial" members of the old board, was asked to refrain from using the word "Homo"

from a lady sitting in front, as there were kids around.

Ermmmmm - it's a football match not the Opera love!  You'll hear much worse from the dug-out!

I understand that parents want to protect their kids, but surely they hear much worse in the playground?

Indeed, they probably say much worse in the playground themselves!

If you don't want to hear "such language" move the **** away from boys that chant at the back.

In a rather glorious moment, her own son stood up 10 minutes after and shouted "FCUK OFF" to the Killie

Main Stand - was he reprimanded - off course not!

Charlie is calling for fans to get behind the team and make some noise, it's **** hard to encourage people to do that when the friggin Sweetie Wrapper brigade stick their oars in!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Ah, I remember the Home International games against Ingerland when you could sing "Bobby Moore, superstar, walks like a woman and he wears a bra" or "Jimmy Hill he's a poof".  I guess songs like these would not be PC anymore.

im split on this one..  id never swear infornt of kids in work or away from a football crowd normally but think nothing of doing it at a match.  full of po0fs, queers and w@nkers etc are all fair game to me in a football park.. maybe i need to think about it.

what is a swear this days anyway?  to me the likes of p1sh, w@nk and even $hite dont even count to me

I guess it depends where you personally draw the line, I'm 30 but would never even say bl**dy infront

of my Mum - she's very religious and a wee stick of dynamite - I'd never hear the end of it.  I don't swear at work either,

and I hate it when people swear first thing in the morning!

However, Football is my release, for 90 mins I can shout my lungs out and go through every emotion possible.  We sit beside an elderly couple and believe me their language is worse than mine, but I'm still respectful of them.  I know where the boundaries are.  We sit together at every home game, and try to all get along.

Away matches are a completely different kettle o' fish.  It's a chance for the "singing section" that are usually seperated out at TCS to get together.  If you've been to a few footie matches, you generally know where to sit.  This woman moved her family up the top beside all the boys, her kids were loving the atmosphere and singing along.

It's a bit rich to enjoy the atmosphere people are making, then complain about the content afterwards.  If you don't like it how about singing your own songs to drown it out! :016:

remember the dundee utd match before brewster went off to aberdeen the chants that were coming from the north stand . had a little chuckle to my self and then got asked by the woman that sits just next to me what they were singing cos she couldn't make it out. the grin on her face after i told her was priceless

It's a present participle used in the form of an adjective.

And a past participle if it ends in "ed"

Eh ken more about pissed participants than past participles
