I'm Back!!!!!!

I think we need to establish what age it is okay to call football fans scum. I tentatively suggest this to be 15. Potential scum can be younger, but I’m not going there.

Or is it the fact that ‘fans’ shouldn’t be called scum that is the issue?

Could scum under 16 be called scumette?

Childish.

Aren't we all 'hard bastards' behind the keyboard eh?

I know you purport to be some 6' 5" rugby-playing hardman, (and on the sq no-less!) but for all I know you're just a sad, fantasist twat.

Who knows eh? The only way to judge people on these boards is by what they say.

Calling some guy's 7 year old son scum really says a lot about you.

I'll leave it at that.

I don't want this thread to run on and on with more personal insults and comments.

You'd "judge" someone based on an internet forum? That's not very bright, is it?

There are plenty of people who visit this forum who have met me "in the flesh".
6ft 8", ex-rugby player yes, hard man, not really.

On the square? Yes, try me and prove me.

You really can't handle people standing up to you, can you?

surely that would be female scum?

I think the point is (perhaps I'm missing the point) that calling a seven year old, who you've never met and are judging on an emotional response that he doesn't fully understand yet "potential scum", because you've got something against football because of hooliganism 15 years ago is, out of order.

Calling adults who cry at the death of people who they've never met, or indeed idiots running riot after too much booze in Manchester "scum" is totally "in-order".

Thank you for your opinion. Duly noted. However, it hasn't changed my opinion one iota.

I tell you what, if we're going to get ridiculous about this, yes it is. What are you going to do about it?

Nothing. Just like you're going to do about it.

This is a forum on the internet, not Dodge City.

Perhaps him growing up to become a captain of industry (and yet still a football supporter) might sway you.

I doubt it, but only time will tell.
