6 minutes 38 seconds into the game tonight, the south stand chanted clearly on Sky towards James Graham, 'you're just a fat ginger b*****d'. Then on 15 minutes and 55 seconds Phil Clarke admitted that the south stand gives him grief.

So that's OK then to make fun of big ginger haired people is it?

I'm be dropping the RFL an email Monday morning asking if Leeds will now be looked at and fined. They've raised the bar now.

Thats nothing on Radio Leeds after 38 minutes 20 seconds I heard a section of the Cas crowd chant "the referee's bent" .... better get the cheque book out

Why you think?

In simple terms - what's worse:

slapping someone in the face

or

stabbing someone.......

But thats not the same, you have quoted something completely different. Killing someone is obviously worse than slapping them. Verbally abusing someone and verbally abusing someone is exactly the same!

Let's overlook context then.

This is the most stupid and backwards thead I have ever seen. Surely this is some kind of joke?

No, you invented the context in line with your perceived hirachy of dastardly deeds. I could say burning a house down and killing a whole family is worse than sh@ting in their pond. But it has no resemblance to this argument, you are merely quoting acts. One worse than the other. You still have not explained why chastising someone for being ginger and fat is not as bad as chastising some for being gay. Both comments are potentially hurtful, I bow to hypocracy without reason!

I'd prefer our fans to focus more on the team performances then whatever obsenities the loiners are chanting.
