Have said it before but Brumby was right all along about Wigan.
Hey, I always thought he was a **** too, and never got the love. Mind you it was all to do with him loving Thatcher*, then the ****ing leg.

Everyone knows rubgy league towns shouldn't play football anyway:ph34r:

* oh and considering this, his views on the Jewish rather ironic as well as offensive and unpleasant.

Have no doubt you did. I just remember telling Brumby he was wrong. The shame.

Bees are playing them last game of the season at home, relegating them would be so good.

His attempt to deflect the "chink" remark are lolworthy. Completely missing the point that Vincent Tan isn't Chinese, which is why referring to him as a chink is quite obviously offensive.

Jesus Christ.

Calling people "chinks" is ok and Jewish people love money more than other folk?

****ing hell.

But don't think Mrs Thatch was Jewish, was she? Keith Joseph & Leon Brittan from her cabinet were tho.

It's more the greed aspect he's going on about, whilst being a Thatcher-ite, the greediest scum in history.

Yeah, so I think this has irreversibly placed Wigan in the "dislike" bracket.

Can't think of any other instance where a high profile private company has hired someone whilst allegations of them being a racist/***ist idiot being investigated. Surely will not end well.

I wonder what would happen if some of the Wigan players came out and refused to play/train until the investigations were over. Will surely not happen, but would be interesting.

Haha, iirc Di Canio wasn't actually under investigation for anything at the time they hired him. Assuming that is what you're referring to.

Nah I just went off on a tangent there. They've got the most racist fans/ultras in Italy. Didn't sign a black player for yonks. Were the poster boy for institutionalised racism when Serie A was at it's peak. Not analogous to what's happenng in Wigan though.

"As at now, our mother is selling polythene bags, padlocks and other things on the (Ghana/Togo) border. Our mother has not seen him for more than a year and he rejects her calls anytime. Our mother is not calling him for his money, she just wants to see him because she loves him very much," Adebayor's sister told Peace FM.

Heh.

That really is mind-boggling levels of terrible. Just cannot compute how someone in his situation would be like that.

Assuming it's true of course.
