It’s about being professional though. I work for children’s services and get a lot of excrement on a daily basis but if I was to make one remark or gesture to a family I’d be sacked. It’s as simple as that.

Turn around and walk away.


I get that but wasn’t Anthony Elding declared a freeman of the town on here for giving it back to Lincoln fans?

Players (well Osbourne anyway) having a go at each other in recent days and nowplayers having a go at fans, fans having a go at all and sundry, the board having a go at the press and the fans. This is a sorry state of affairs and I can see no togetherness whatever. It will take a miracle worker to deal with all this. I feel very concerned.

Are you taking the p1ss ? Or was Elding playing for Lincoln at the time ?


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

He should be sacked not because of the gesture,

BUT

Because he is rubbish at his job along with a few others.

Mills was one who at least tried ,

I did not realise Osborne was even playing until the 2 nd half.

Does it really matter? I don’t expect to get excrement off my mrs or family but if I get it off them I give it back as good as I get it. I wasn’t there today but I have seen a tweet suggesting he was just giving it back - which makes me think about that long thread on here about snowflakes a bit.

I was at the other end of the stand and did not see or hear the male masturbator song or gesture,

BUT

If they said it to Vernon and he replied he might have just trying to lighten the mood by responding in a light hearted way,

Having said that he still wants sacking because he is not very good at his job.

Player gets abuse off a load of people over a long period of time. Finally gives something back to someone and grown men can’t take it. Grow up.

I’ve no doubt that someone was probably being a male masturbator to him. You know full well he isn’t calling 800 fans that have made the trip male masturbators.

Fair play to him for standing up for himself, I’ve no doubt someone overstepped the mark for him to do that.

Absolutely wrong in my opinion! Players are 'professional' and should act in a ' professional' way, they are not Sunday league players,there have been countless far better GTFC   players  than this present rabble in my 50 years of  supporting,that have received often unfair abuse that  haven't responded in this way, it doesn't make unfair abuse right, but players need to be above that sort of response, i wasn't there, but if true the players involved should face serious consequences, it is mthem that are not  performing, not the fans!
