Remember that stuff about gay players?

[Chris Smith]

I reckon a gay player would be as worried about the stick he'd get from other players as he would from the fans. Imagine having to deal with a twat like John Terry if you are openly gay. It's easy to tell them that they should stand up for themselves when you're not the one who will have to endure it every single day.

Indeed.  Just look at the stick le Saux got from that fat twat Fowler for daring to read the Guardian.  The first time a tackle went astray in training it'd be "bender" this and "poof" that.

The fact is, it's just an occupation where you're unlikely to find many openly gay employees.  I had a gay mate in Wigan who was a quantity surveyor, and working around building sites, there's no way on earth he'd have admitted to it at work, no way at all.

TBH that cock le saux deserved the piss taken out of him (not for homophobic reasons) but for thinking that wearing a pair of glasses and reading the Guardian made him some sort of Stephen hawking like figure. Fuck me I bet he had a copy of the Dandy inside

What kind of inverse snobbery is that?

How does reading a quality newspaper and wearing glasses make you some kind of intellectual? Is this Cambodia Year Zero?

Exacyly but le Saux was keen to portray that image of himself namely if people think i is clever then i'll get lots of work on that tellybox think

Thank heaven for small mercies...

Mind you, I suppose it is easy to look like a colossal intellect when the opposing argument is epitomised by an intellectual giant such as Robbie Fowler.

It's the same reason why Paulie has got the better of this exchange. ;¬)
