We can't blame them for what came out JN's mouth, that's entirely down to him and it's unacceptable as chairman of our club. Nonsense. Why dont you try supporting your team. Those rascists are not our friends and John Needham to his credit has made that clear. Its important that you get on the right side here. It because of this appeasing attitude that this insidious disease has been allowed to take root again. Whats unacceptable is anti Irish racism. Please do not lose sight of that when you are bringing down a man who has had the courage to call it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I support neither of the OF teams bigotry but I expect a bit of professionalism from our chairman. Having said that if John manages to stay as chairman he’ll have my support. Hopefully he’ll learn a lesson from this and be a bit more savvy in future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When exactly does it become offensive? No doubt they and others use the words as a derogatory term for the other lot, but where does the boundary lie? I think you make the point yourself. It is about context. Friend to friend it has some humour. In public when you are in a position of authority within the football world then funny it is not. Foolish and provocative.

The Original 59er Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 "let he who is without sin cast the first stone." This of course is a suggestion to not criticize others when you personally are not perfect! I'm not suggesting that what he wrote is either correct, or for that matter appropriate, especially for a figurehead of our club, but in this 'woke' society of ours, it takes very little for the media, or a group of 'perfect' individuals to bay for blood. All this suggests to me that maybe society is changing. Are we in the process of becoming much more conservative in our beliefs, but at the same time much more precious in our apparent acceptance of what you say, do or watch? However there are a lot of hypocrites out there In saying that I think there are far too many people who don't engage their brains before they rant into twitter, facebook or some other media and they (and he) need to learn that if you haven't anything appropriate to say, don't rant, just because you can!

Brilliant Disguise Posted October 28, 2021 Report Share Posted October 28, 2021 If John does decide to go by mutual consent we could always ask Gerald Ratner to take his position on the board. He has been looking for something to do for the last 30 years For the youngsters Gerald learned, the hard way, that when you have the privilege to be in the higher echelons of a business that its best to keep your opinions to yourself.

Feel it’s in no small part caused by people that get upset & react to certain posters (regardless of content), or practically beg for attention on threads.

It's just Sevco taking over the "easily offended" mantle from Celtic. I think there should be a John Needham statue placed outside the main stand. John Needham, legend!
