        Yeah that's why the posts over at the Bucs website were very anti-american.

        Also like I said it's very retarded to get upset ove what someone MIGHT do when you ZERO proof at what will actually happen. If you use intelligence you go by what he has done in the past. And soccer may not be football but both are sports so there are similarities. Not like he has had ZERO experience in being an sports team onwer. And if one can be succesful being an NFL owner with all it's restrictions then on can be an owner of some soccer team.

        At any rate as I've said I couldn't care less if Glazer or Mickey Mouse or Hitler owned your team. I'd just wish the idiotic fans of Man you would quit bitching and stop with the death threats already. You want know who is/was a bad onwer the old( and now thankfully DEAD ) owner of the Bucs and the current owner of the Tampa Bay Devils Rays basbeall team. As far as I'm concerned if those Irish guys wanted to take the mone they'll get from Glazer and buy the Devil Rays I'd be all for it and I know damned sure they don't shit about babseball. I'm also 100% sure they can't posibly be worse than the current owner.

            Arsenal has some songs they sing against rivals Tottenham and I dont know the exact words but a good portion of it is directed against the 'Jews' in Tottenham....
            Very, very odd notion. You really need to get out and actually meet some normal English people rather than hanging with BNP arseholes.

            As for the chants it's less to do with racism per se and everything to do with the remnants of the yob/hooligan culture the UK football had in huge doses back in the 80's. The idiots involved simply picked the easiest target as an excuse for abuse and violence which could be anything from race to not liking the way you walk. Just a shame there's still a huge element of them left in the stands even if they tend to restrict it more to chants than physical assults these days.
            Ignorance is never bliss.
