Real recognize real (or sometimes not!) : the Jesse Lingard thread

We shouldn't even give this a second thought.. Take him away

 

One man's trash is another man's treasure

 

I expect Jesse will be very very effective in Serie A. Good league for him.

What an utter ********. Hope they get identified and prosecuted, especially if that's a racist slur in there too.

 

I didnt hear a racist slur personally.

I also dont think that abuse is THAT bad. All they are saying is he's shit.

 

Didnt realize those were United fans.

Thata a bit ********ed up, but nothing you can really do.

 

I said prosecuted when I meant banned. My bad.

Besides it being sufficiently shitty and over the line to shout personal abuse 10 yards away from the bus, at your own player, after a match we won... I'm pretty sure he shouts "you're dead" at one point? I think it's one thing to be pissed off at a player and shout from way up in the stands, it's shitty behaviour if you're in earshot during a match, and it's way out of order if you're standing 10 yards away, waiting outside the team bus to pile on him.

I listened out specifically for racism this time - I think the guy using the n word isn't being abusive and is possibly calling out to Scott McTominay.

 

The irony? Jesse had a slow start, but he was pretty good against Derby. Lots of progressive runs, 2 or 3 shots inside the box, almost his normal press and some decent link up play. Not his best, but certainly better than he's been in a while.

 

These guys are f-cking wankers. While his form has been poor, his family issues this season are well documented and there is no need to abuse him like this.

 

Lol. @doubletrouble out in the wild.

 

The thing that was equally disappointing is that no other "supporters" told those assholes to shut the fck up. He's kind of a social media douche off the pitch, but that was complete and utter bullshit.

 

I don't think any club's fans are too good for this sort of thing.

 

Manchester United announced they are investigating which considering we were playing away makes me think they were United supporters.

Especially after a win. United had just won in good fashion over Derby and all this idiot cares about is Jesse? That’s not a fan.

 

If there is racism, that needs to be handle. But outside of that... you can't call a shit player shit anymore?

 

You don't shout it in their face, no. Come on, man. Human ********ing decency.

When you're up that close to one of your own players, well within earshot, you're not calling a player shit, you're shouting abuse at a person. You expect it from opposition fans and you block it out, knowing it's just them trying to get to you. But when it's one of your own fans? Come on.

 

I did not see they shouted in his face. Are we talking actually in their face or walking by?

Also this is the club that has had fans stand outside of people's houses, threatening this. This stuff is a picnic in comparison.

 

5, 10 yards away may as well be in their face.

I don't understand what your point is. Some other people did something even more unacceptable, therefore this unacceptable thing is now fine? Come on man. You spent too long reading Teso's shit.
