What did Rooney say to the camera, I missed it?

I missed it?

From reading this, it appears that 'a certain word' was used twice ;-)

I'll tell you, Chris, if you promise I won't be banned on Monday morning... ;-)

The mail said he said the F word, so it goes on all the time in football if you can lip read but it still dosent actually say what he said apart from the F word!

[Sir Alec]

Oh for goodness sake, you see the managers mouthing and shouting it all the time from the touchlines. What's the difference except for a touch ref?

[TonyV]

would not be the first time he has used the word - I would put odds on that he will not start next season with ManU if alex is still manager

[Sir Alec]

I will not be pushed, stamped, fiied, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own. I am not a number, I am a free man. Love it.

A footballer swearing !!!!!!
Whatever next!!!!!

[blue-bell]

He is an adult, right?

What's the big deal?

[lynbrown]

yes, he is an adult but the audience was made up of lots of kids.

[blue-bell]

I know what you're saying but I think any parent who takes their children to see a football match, should expect this kind of thing. I certainly don't think Wayne Rooney should watch what he says, incase he offends any kids of their parents.

This doesn't change my opinion of him though, in that he is an absolute pleb!

1965

Appearing on a late night live satire programme called BBC3, Kenneth Tynan becomes the first man to say “Fcuk” on TV. A national fit of apoplexy follows with one Tory MP suggesting that Tynan should hang!

Bad language at a football match whatever next ?

[blue-bell]

I hardly think insulting someone with dyslexia is "making a stand".

[blue-bell]

Sorry, wrong thread.... lol!

[SnakeEyes]

I altered the spelling of the f word so it would pass the censor

My son got some free tickets from school to watch the local team Ware play a home match against Waltham Abbey
The language would have made a docker blush, the attendance was only a few hundred people and you heard every word shouted by the players and managers.

During the match my 9 yr old son was oblivious to the swearing but later on that evening playing fifa on the PS3 my son called the ref a w**ker

After the initial shock I asked him why he said it and he said that`s what they said today

[Buenchico]

Your post, Elvis, reminds me of the only time (during my refereeing days) when a player insisted upon a personal hearing, in front of the disciplinary committee of the County F.A., to protest at one of my decisions.

He stated (falsely) that he hadn't, as I had reported, called me a 'fukcing stupid w@nker'. He told the committee that he had only called me a 'bleeding stupid w@nker' and that therefore he shouldn't have been sent off because his language was (as he saw it) 'neither foul nor abusive'. He was supported by his team captain and two of the team's officials, who all expressed exactly the same view!

[ELVIS68]

It`s like the old classic..."Ref ....If I call you a w**ker would you send me off?"

"Yes" replies the ref

"But if I think you`re a w**ker you can`t send me off?"

"Correct" replies the ref

"Well I think you`re a w**ker"
