Think he's just saying he's a poor player.

They adopted to deflect from opposition fans using it not to wind them up. In a statement, Spurs said their fans used the term as a "defence mechanism" against anti-Semitism from rivals. Spurs has traditonally been a Jewish club though with a large Jewish following and many Jews apparently...

Well that's me. I don't boo him. I just don't think he's very good.

It is fine for Eddie Murphy and Chris Rock etc. to use the 'n' word when they are talking about themselves because they are black and are talking about their own kind and everyone seems to think that is acceptable. The Spurs fans are talking about their own kind when they say the word Yid...

Okay, but people saw how great he was against Birmingham and that then raised the bar in terms of their expectation of him in the following games. They thought that at last we were seeing the real Carl Baker. He seems to turn it on only very occasionally though. Fans see a great performance...

Just read that and well ... fook me! :facepalm: What a joke these Society of Black Lawyers seem to be. They seem to be a bunch of clowns. Why do we have to have a Society of Black Lawyers anyway? Would a Society of White Lawyers be acceptable? Course not. Why not just a Society of Lawyers...

There were a few idiots. Young teenagers I recall. Sometimes I hear players' names get booed when the team sheet has been read out and they haven't even kicked the ball!

But surely that is a term of endearment isn't it? Should West Brom stop calling themselves the Baggies in case it upsets those wearing bell bottom trousers?

Disagree. Heard boos for McSheffrey, Clarke, Hussey, McDonald, Deegan, Barton, Baker, Kilbane, ROD, Clingan, Thomas, Eastwood all in the last year. Missed a few names out there as well for sure. That's 12 players just in that lot! If fans think a player isn't pulling his weight fans get on...

Isn't Yiddo the word Spurs fans use for themselves? Supporters of Tottenham Hotspurs adopted the nickname "Yid" (or "Yiddo") and often identify as "Yid Army". Used as a badge of pride by the supporters of Tottenham Hotspur F.C. in support of the Jewish communities based near to the North...

He's been very poor in a few games to be fair.

It did, but the footage wasn't even that clear was it. It was only partial footage of what he said.

Can only assume he's injured. Can't believe for a minute that ROD has gone above him in the pecking order. Not saying there's anything in it, but weren't there a few rumours when he came that he liked his 'pop' a bit too much?

Same happened to Terry though didn't it. People immediately came out and said he was guilty and called for his captain's armband from the England team before any trial or hearing.

And that's what we need to focus on, racism itself from within and from top to bottom, not create quota's etc. I have no problem with the Kick it Out campaign, I think that is a good thing. Would have a problem with it though if it was just for black players only.

Agree with your comments Oldskyblue. I also have a bit of a problem with things like the MOBO's too. We need to try and make sure there is no racism not create quota's where black people have to have representation simply because they are black.

Most people applaud him when he does well and criticise him when he does badly. Whether you like him or not, on the whole his crossing is woesome and he doesn't score enough and he gets knocked off the ball too easily. I am just as likely to say 'Ohhh Baker' as I am to say 'Good pass.' Of...

I liked AT, but thought he was an awful manager. I also like MR, but I think he is a good manager. That's where we differ.

Don't think anyone said we were poor did they? Just that we were 2nd best. The great thing about last night was that we looked like we had goals in us all game and kept it pretty tight at the back. That's a good recipe for success.

MR said McDonald would have played in the cup tie on Saturday but was ill mid-week and therefore kept him on the bench.
