As long as he's any good why would any England fan not be.

It's hilarious that that word is blocked by the website but the sh*t and tired insults being used in the thread are not.
Makes a mockery of the swear filters existence.

I have once again suggested it be removed from the filter.

Would have to be me asking, wouldn't it?

not being funny mate, but you're a fine one to talk about sh!t posts.

I like the caveat

Cannot believe the word ghey is censored on this forum. That's almost as homophobic as some of the posters. It's an entirely inoffensive description of a sexual preference. If someone on here calls someone "an effing ghey XYZ" it's the tone and the words around it that are offensive.

Censoring the word just adds to the idea that homosexuality itself is somehow offensive.

I suggested to MYU it should be removed months ago.

Pretty ridiculous filtering it IMO. It could even be argued that it's offensive and discriminative against gaŷs to do so.

LOL!

[ArthurQPR_NYC]

but seriously, back to the point of the OP (rather than the usual poster v poster spat)..

assuming hitzlespergers tweet wasnt a fabrication, who was it in our front office that had that conversation? You reckon it was 1 of Tony's people? PB's people? Amit's? Why do we keep these idiots around our front office? Surely there's got to be a decent pool of strong football minded front office staff (just as there are always a decent candidate pool of "good managers".) no?

I assumed Hitzlsperger's tweet was a joke, or at least an exaggeration for comic affect.

Me n all - thought he was a free agent / about to have his contract expire when we were linked so no transfer fee was involved?

I thought Germans are the least funny people in the world?

Positive homophobia?

Without knowing the reason that word is censored, it's hard to know what the rationale behind it is.

While the actual homophobia, both casual and the really horrible stuff, does however seem to be tolerated, it does look absolutely ridiculous.

If it is just one of a list of words that are banned to appease the Google advert revenue, then as stupid as it is, at least it isn't driven by the owners of the site.
