Police investigating rascist gesture at Anfield

[Dante]

Do you see his right arm or is it the same as in the link I posted?

 

His right arm is mostly hidden but as he puts his left hand under his armpit, he 'appears' to do the same with his right and makes the sideways rocking motion as in a monkey taunt action.

 

Like I said it definitely looks like a taunt, though I may be wrong.

 

(I think I've covered my arse enough there)

This really is our media taking their campaign against our club to another level. And before any of our more concerned liberals react to even the most imagined offence to the rat's twat of an individual they choose to defend perhaps they may concern themselves with the motivation behind the mind-set that compelled the scum that spat on a memorial to our lost brothers and sisters.

 

Guess what will happen if one cock swallower lobs an egg at the Munich memorial at our game at the shit pit? We, as Liverpool people, would condemn him/her immediately, but that would be the papers' COLOR="Red"]HEADLINE[/color]

That didn't work out as I expected. But...that's life.

[Plev]

I will agree that it looks like a monkey chant but I think it was an ill attempt at a manc gesture towards their fans as the way they would go calm down calm down.

I dont think anyone would be that stupid. I suppose we should just wait and see what the authorities find but at present I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

 

Looks like that to me too, it looks like it's aimed at the away end, and I don't get why anyone would do monkey taunts to the away fans, doesn't make sense. When I initially heard about this incident I assumed it was aimed directly at Evra, which would have made sense.

[Red_or_Dead]

I bet the guy is a wool. Or from Yorkshire.

[satmann]

Just off rawk...Does not seem to be

 

Just to update on my situation I just gave. Statement to police who are investigating the matter.

 

When I saw him doing it from behind he was doing it to the supporters and no one in my eyeline was black

 

Was he stupid to do it yes but it was in response to the mancs doing the calm down calm down motion now there is nothing to say that there actions to us is not racist if the world is going to go comletely mad

"100% true mate.* -* but as I said I had my back to him but in my eyelin which is same as his there were no blaclk or Indian supporters.

 

Now if he is calling the mancs supporters who were White monkeys or mad gorillas how can that be deemed racist.* If he was directing it at a black person fair enough."

[torahboy]

I have no idea what the guy is doing; maybe putting something in his right hand pocket, helping his seated to his right blind son to the toilet, reaching for his mobile to phone in a donation to the Evra Massive Family appeal, or merely just doing a 'monkey chant' - a 'monkey chant' by one person. Looks like the folks around him are concerned.

Just saw the clip.

 

He makes that monkey gesture in the video. We would be foolish to deny that.

 

Hope he gets banned for life.

Convincing stuff.

[Phoenix]

He is being a twat and he should be banned for life.

Considering the stress and strain the club had to undergo in the past few weeks, he should have refrained from doing such stuff. When you are drunk and excited, it is very hard to keep your emotions under control but given the circumstances and critical nature of the issue, he should have just shut up.

 

We had a good game today and our players did very well to get a result. Unfortunately, the journos and press are like vultures and they are going to make this a big issue. Instead of talking about a great game, we are reduced to defending our club again.

 

Whoever it is that brought this upon us is a real cunt. Hope you realize what you have done asshole.

Maybe it's just me but I'm not racist when sober or drunk.

[torahboy]

Of course he should - if it's proven conclusively that this 'twat' is making monkey gestures towards black people (how we punish him if the gestures were directed towards white people is your guess), and that we don't get in to the FA's standard of proof - being, 'that what's we think he meant'.

 

Oh, sorry. We're already there.

[Pidge]

The race of the fans sat opposite him is totally irrelevant. The situation we are in means the context is racial regardless. The guy is, at best, a complete fucking retard.

[Whelan]

This racism lark seems really simple doesn't it?

 

Kenny and the club support Surez = We all become racists.

 

Someone caught making monkey gestures = a racist.

 

He could very well be a racist by the way, but until this has been confirmed I hardly think it is worth the indignation that is coming our way. Can't wait for Piar Power, been a bit quiet lately but this should suit him down to the ground!

 

Can we not just wait until everything becomes clear? Just because the tabloid scum are after us, doesn't mean we have to bow down and apologise.

 

One prick who, if guilty, would be banned for life as a consequence is neither here nor there.

[Rorschach08]

Dunno, Looks more like he's doing a Liam Gallagher/Ian Brown style 'manc' walk to me, not that it'll matter because he'll be pillored regardless of his intentions.

[George Costanza]

fucking miserbale bunch on that pic.

The situation we are in is that we are being witch hunted by an unsophisticated and vindictive media. You are guilty of swallowing their fanatic ramblings. The guy may well be a 'fucking retard' but he is not a proven fucking racist, and until he is convicted of being such it would only be a 'fucking retard' who, on the evidence available, could mount a case based on some media designated 'context'.

 

In short - fuick off, retard!

[RedAdmiral]

Some quick maths to show just how racist our support is.

2 incidents this season, 40,000 liverpool supporters at each of those games gives us a grand racist total of 0.002%.

However 6000 fans singing Hillsborough songs all match, is not worth a mention!

 

Except prior to the match, so that you can show 'balance'!

 

Be interesting to see the response from the media in a couple of weeks when we visit Old Trafford and sing Munich songs!

[Allan the Red]

It does look very convincing, how can someone be that stupid?

 

I am very concerned that all of this media frenzied hate-mongering which has appeared suddenly is going to get out of hand soon, it's going to get someone seriously hurt or worse.

I remember the last time the media decided to blame all that was wrong with football on LFC...

This sort of thing can blow out of proportion in an instant!

Surely he isnt a season ticket holder? We need to know where his ticket was bought, maybe his brother writes for the rag???

I cant understand it, a moment of demented behaviour from a retard, and that gets lumped on top of the (already gaining momentum) 'knock on effect' that the club has to clean up.

Clean up they should, ban anybody who brings the club into disrepute!

 

Great effort from the lads, really proud of the character after Bolton!
