Christ on a bike.

Clearly advised to deny all knowledge of everything, in order to get off scot free. Can't someone pull out his yr9 coursework on the Nazis or something?

This is a bit of an odd one though. It's not a Nazi salute, it's a Hitler salute complete with fake moustache. That's not what neo-Nazis would be doing because it's a "comedy" version.

It's certainly tasteless and potentially offensive towards his German teammate though.

Edit: His excuse that he didn't know is laughable of course.

It was the Olympic Salute. And the original USA pledge of allegiance salute, until that pesky FDR stuck his oar in.

So he was doing a Basil Fawlty impression?

I sort of wouldnt be surprised that a footballer in his early 30s simply didn't know who the Nazis were to be honest.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

On top of all that, it seems that the chap who was taking the photo was a Mr Bussolini.

Yeah, Wayne Hennessey had never heard of the Second World War, and definitely wasn't making a Nazi/fascist gesture at someone who very nearly shared a name with a certain famous fascist...

Exactly what I thought. Too many coincidences for him to have his arms positioned like that while shouting at someone called Bussolini. Laughable

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

That’s what I thought. Entirely plausible that he’s actually that much of a thick c**t.

There is absolutely zero chance of that being the case.

Given the fact that every school child for the last fifty years has been taught about the Nazis, and given that they're the go-to baddie for a whole host of films, I just don't buy it.

You're saying that Hennessey has forgotten everything he was taught in school, and has avoided the core content of Hollywood's 'manly' output since 1946?

I’m sure he would’ve studied English too but the bloke doesn’t seem to have too much of a command of that. Whichever way you cut it he’s an ignorant pr1ck, either for not understanding the offence it would cause and directing his gesture towards a camera and a German teammate, or for being aware of all of that and choosing to do it anyway.
