It has a better chance of working than the alternative. I.e building a football stadium so you can host a wedding fair. Its never been explained how the new stadium debt would be paid off.

But who are you to say that someone should lose weight? What if they don't want to? Does that make them fair game for abuse? The message here seems to be "unless you fit into our idea of the perfect human specimen, then prepare for ridicule and abuse". So your obviously against abuse...

Just like racial slurs its a form of bullying, and anyone that's seen bullying first hand knows the damage that can be done to someone's self confidence. Unfortunately not all forms of bullying are treated equally.

I imagine most people would agree. Many people find it upsetting when they become the target of abuse.

So every overweight person in the world is as thick skinned as you?

I would say both have the potential to be equally offensive.

So the person has to change their appearance in order to avoid abuse?

Why is it obvious? Your still taking a physical aspect of a person and using it as an insult. Making fun of someone's weight could be deeply upsetting.

No, modern science will soon be able to cure most of those.

I'm obviously not saying you will start supporting a shop! But if you never go to a football match you won't get into it properly.You would end up as an armchair Man Utd fan or something. Yes there are lots of CCFC fans who don't go to games much now. But how many are there that didn't go to...

No they can't I agree. If you want your kids to be city fans then you have to take them to a few games a season. Suppose it depends if you want your kids to have go through everything we all have.

Well done for the constructive criticism there smelly head. The whole point is there is more to do in the world than go to CCFC of Wasps. If you had parents that brought their kids up to do something other than sport on a Saturday afternoon then the outcome would still be the same for CCFC.

Exactly, if they match what Wasps are offering then Wasps are no threat.

But didn't it always depend on the parents? I don't see how people taking their kids to see Wasps is any worse for CCFC than taking your kids shopping on a Saturday afternoon.
