napoli - Edin and Cavani

[Original Dub]

I've a close family member who's spastic and although she's a gem, it's a big burden on the family to care for her and she herself has a lot of health issues to deal with. In short it's one of those things in life that's very sad.

It's offensive to hear someone using some poor unfortunate's misery to use as an insult or to have a laugh.

To hear it used to describe Bosnian people, along with the refugee reference to their recent tragic history, is at best pig ignorant, and at worst a deeply offensive racial slur on Bosnians.

Sorry, nothing personal to any individual posters, but I have to speak out when I hear this kind of talk

Maybe I'm being irish here but it sounds like matt dillon in something about mary, when he says "I love those little retards".

Is spastic the pc term?

Some things are banter for some and poor taste to others, but that's part of forums (or forii!). If I dont like the look of something I just ignore it.

There's very few things we should get really upset about, otherwise dont bother with forums at all.

Mate from my perspective..and I'm sure from Doom's also....it was not meant remotely seriously. And, it also wasn't aimed at you (more at the one who got so upset when I originally used it). A joke...albeit a crass one and if you are offended, this time, I apologise.

Then don't write such rubbish. If you guys have any respect, you would check yourselves and what you write before you submit it

oh fuck off, jesus you've become a whiney fucker of late

This is what i did not wont . City fans have argue abaut Bosnians .I just say it was to much , people step over the line i m sure from a joke not hate but it was a bit recklessly post without thinking and I asked them to just because of the history and refugees to no longer write that and people have apologized and said they will not. No need to be more discussion about it. Insult me, insult Dzeko lovers but about refugees please do not. Because who knows the history of the Bosnian people and refugees who have not went out of their Country because they wanted, and many can be considered lucky as refugees because they could easily end up in one of the many mass graves. So lets no longer turns on the subject. This is a sports site and I believe that this will not happen again and that's just one thoughtless post with no intention to insult Bosnian people who believe me when I tell you see this kind of insult is more than enough on the net, which is one of the lightweight from those who truly believe it and wont to insult. So I ask you all to issue is longer under discussion .and to return to the sport.

Fuck me. Are we really here again?

Maybe Ant and I should get a retroactive ban so you cunts can feel a sense of justice?

Honestly, never in my life has either term been deemed as some horrifically offensive word. My alologies if your cultural experiences have been otherwise. I'm not trying to be flippant.

Have you noticed how every thread has turned into a bitchfest about something? The amount of threads that have turned into Mancini debates is insane.

How you got on the wrong side of a spastic debate is something I missed though. You realise you are going to hell now, right?

Spastic hell

[carl_feedthegoat]

It gets on my nerves when someone comes out with "a member of my family has this" so you shouldnt take the piss.

Fuck off , its part of life on a forum and we arnt all called mary white house (apart from Dazby) so if you dont like the banter no matter how distasteful it can get then I would suggest you piss off to a forum where the rules dictate that all members must join cyber hands and sing "we are the world" every morning before breakfast.

Re; Golf , I played worse than a spastic the other day..lost 150 dollars.

As a member of the Irish diaspora, I'd like to take offence at the use of the above (underlined) word. It's always a capital 'I'!

Fucking hell Daily Mail will run a 'Man City Fans forum in racial spastic slur & Kolarov tells them to fuckoff' story next.

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

Spastic is a proper un p c word these days and I'm surprised to hear anybody use it to describe "a close family member". . . . Even if they are a spastic.

i think i punched my ticket to hell a long time ago.

It's not even worth rehashing. I wish it was at least more interesting. It's not.

Ok fair enough, I take that point. I suppose the point was that if you've had personal experience of it you wouldn't like to see the term used in that manner.

It wasn't my intention to piss anyone off and I do understand that some places the term isn't seen as that offensive / in common use.

[simon12]

They're all hanging themselves on blue moan. Apparantley some one called chris cohen who works for rentboy tv has tweeted Cavani is a done deal and J Alberti who is a football agent has tweeted that Cavani has signed a pre contact agreement with the rentboys. A lot of ITK's knocking about.

I would imagine chris cohen is facing the sack for a start.

[Lee_R]

If true.. fuck him the spaz.

If were talking 54 million or whatever then hes just not worth it. I'd love him at the club but not at the cost of being raped financially. We'll get Isco and we have some good strikers Guidetti is due a crack too. I still reckon there's a marque signing to be made and it might be shocking.. (Hope)

[Wooders]

Rent boys are chelsea right?
Bloody good side they are putting together, led by maureen, could be a problem next season

I just hope it doesn't turn out like the Van Pussy situation.
If he is going to get us 20 - 30 goals a season, sign him up! One player could be the difference between winning the title and losing it.

[jono1978]

This yet again shows how weak we are in the transfer window. It's not like we ain't got the money.

[sheblue]

54m is mental money for him.

ffs the club has never confirmed we were in for cavani. he was mancini target but is he a pellegrino target? who knows.

that said, i would love to sign him.
