    Now you have to be PC at football matches

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_pictures/7776001.stm

    don't the police have better things to do than chase after football fans singing non-pc songs?

    we're living in a politically correct nightmare

    That's hardly new, people have been prosecuted/banned from grounds for racist chants and shouts at football matches for at least a decade.

      Why am I not surprised to find that you think racist homophobic abuse is merely "non-pc"?

      I bet you'd be all over them like a rash if they were gay black thugs dissing you for being straight and white. You'd probably expect the Police to do something about it.

        Personally I’d be quite happy to see these filthy little chavs sent to the roughest prison in Jamaica with swastikas tattooed on their foreheads.

              I have wrote a new football chant, also transferrable to cricket and rugby



              'England England , rah rah rah'

                WHS. This is exactly the kind of example of why 'PC' isn't always foolishness.

                I personally think racist/sexist jokes are fine as long as it's clear it IS a joke, actual racism is not tolerable (and also pathetic & stupid).

                  when will the voice of the silent majority be heard... It's all political correctness gone mad... hell in a handcart...

                  </muppet>

                  They're never silent and fortunately not a majority. Twonk!

                    I was at the match, and believe me the chants were far worse than just 'non pc'. No-one (even Sol Campbell) should have to put up with that sort of abuse, and I for one, hope the police find the perpetrators.
