    Think the same would've been said about Soldado multiple times <laugh>

    Hope Kanes injury isn't bad.

    Definitely want Arsenal in the semis. They'd be as good as anyone in the final for Wenger's last game.

    Why would the FA punish our fans?, the FA can investigate and find no ground rules were broken, the media are gutted they never got their major disorder story so look for stories, a couple of iffy chants a bit of pushing and shoving before the game and some bloke getting a clump after the game(outside the ground).
    As has happened before the FA will give us a warning in regards to our future behavior.

    I'd expect a fine and we could get one too for the pikey chants.
    Tends to become more of an issue for televised live games, especially on the BBC.

    That bloke that threw the punch could be in **** too, as he's well known.
    Could get away with it because the footage isn't that great, but he walked past the police to do it and there were cameras everywhere.

    The thing is you'll be hard pushed to find anyone actually offended by any of the chants which are 'borderline' racist rather then being offensive racism, just people looking too deep into finding something to be outraged about.
    If the bloke who punched that fellow is known and it can be proved it was him he'll need a good brief to avoid a bit of a stretch, but he'll be on a five year banning order at least.

    Yeah, they weren't expecting it to be 3 goals, though.

    Which is why I'm mystified there's been no reporting of your fans making hissing noises during the first half.

    Aint pushing that, mate. Sing ****ing Hate Millwall outside whilst you are leaving is asking for it(not that, that it weren't cheap).

    No one's gutted, your fans openly sang it. If you think targetting Asian players for abuse is iffy or fine, then you're a ****(sorry). The FA hold a higher standard of racism and decenency. Or they should do, I have my doubts.

    What's Millwall got against Asians? Are they courting their sisters?

    For a start we target players every week for abuse/banter to get under their skin, we target people who stand out from the crowd and as Son is one of the few Korean/Chinese type players that play in this country the DVD and three for a fiver chant came out, as i said a bit iffy but not nasty, infact 12 years ago we got reported for the DVD chants to a Wolves player and a fella was arrested and taken to court for racism, it was proved that DVD is not racist, besides getting all high and mighty over this is a massive own goal when some of yours sing "he'll shoot, he'll score, he'll eat your Labrador" to him.

    If this is true, then this is funny! I'm not condoning racism though when I say this.

    Just don't do it, period.
    That also applies to the Spurs supporters who did the "pikey" chants
    (irrespective of who "started it" ) .

    Personally i don't do it, but football chants have always been 'edgy' or close to the mark and every clubs supporters have over stepped the mark at some stage.

    Spurs have never sung the Labrador song, it got banded about on social media but it's never been sung by our supporters.

    I wonder where Ringo got his information from? Was it this person perchance?
