Florida Blue wrote:I hate Rio as much as any of you, but frankly I cannot blame him for celebrating like he did. His team just beat their biggest rivlas in dramatic fashion, and after a brillant and hard fought match. Let's hate him for all he stands for, but he should not be attacked for celebrating. Any of us in his shoes would have acted as such in the heat of the battle.
I am certain if this had been Balotelli not many of us would have been bothered, if it had been Tevez even less, and if it had be Kompany no one would be saying a word.
That said, the response of the fans in question is disgusting. Joe did what any classy player would, and to some extent so did Tevez.
The difference is our players, esp Kompany, have too much class to celebrate in front of their fans
