Restricting debate is not the same as thinking people should take responsibility for the consequences of what they tweet. You mentioned Katie Hopkins, and a large criticism of her is that she refuses to stop inciting hate. Ditto Priti Patel. The right to say something doesn't mean there's no responsibility not to. See I don't think I am. A large proportion of the country agree with what the likes of Patel says, we personally don't. At the same time Patel gets a level of abuse that she wouldn't get for saying exactly the same thing as a man. Who is to play the deciding role which woman need protecting and which don't? Which woman views are acceptable and which not? I think if you are a pundit and you say something about a player or team then that player or team deserve a right to reply. As I have said no issues with criminal action against anyone abusing on social media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 Love how when things go another teams way the whole game is bent and it's all a conspiracy against Man City. Everyone at the top level is getting together to make sure plucky little underdogs Citeh never win another title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds were either being ignorant or dismissive of the consequences. The fact they left it up after she started getting abuse, without any sort of statement saying that anyone found doing it wouldn't be welcome at games in the future, suggests the latter to me.

And when you looked at the Pogba incident, you could see the defender knocked his leg which forced him to trip over himself. Was it a penalty? I don't know but I can see why it was given. What it wasn't is blatant cheating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pogba one was blatant cheating. He was not fouled, remember you have to be fouled to get a penalty. Just like the Chelsea player was not fouled. Difference is Pogba flicked his own foot and flopped over. I'd Pogba a cheat? The evidence suggests he is. https://twitter.com/johnmerro1/status/1345124353491537920?s=20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
