Yelling The C-Bomb 15:12 - Sep 22 with 25194 viewsBad_Boy_Mark

The was a gentleman - and I use this term loosely - within our fans who frequently yelled out the C-Bomb at the top of his voice yesterday at any given opportunity.

I am not a prude by stretch of the imagination, but is this really necessary? There were many children at the game and of all the swear words that one could use, this is absolutely the worst...

Am I being too much of a Dad or do I have a point?

Sorry but I find your reply embarrassing.

Yes, it is just a word but try explaining to a kid what it represents and why the person shouting it is so angry.

And then try and live with yourself as they tell you that is the place where you and they come from and ask you earnestly why you hate it so much.

And I have got a grip already, thank you

But the zip is going home.

I would get a new one but, you know, sometimes things seem outdated even if people tell you that is what everyone adopts now.

Maybe you should just watch at home.


If you had small children I think you’d understand.

There’s no excuse anywhere for that language.

It reflects badly on the yobs saying it

I’d just say to him ‘it’s football lad. People will swear. People will shout. Normal people will scream stuff that they wouldn’t say in their jobs/homes and it’s a release to have a day at the footy with a few beers. It’s just football. Take no notice.’

But that’s just me..

Yelling The C-Bomb on 17:07 - Sep 22 by Bad_Boy_Mark

The point that I am making is not against swearing per se, as this happens at football matches week in, week out.

My issue is with the liberal and foghorn-style use of the C-word, as was the case yesterday.

Personally, I feel that it is unnecessary especially when it is obvious that there are young children present.


I was in the company one time with a few other blokes.

These were your stereotypical blokey blokes, couple of hard characters who'd enjoyed colourful lives, on of whom was "c*** this, c*** that" to the point where even the biggest and hardest one there, turned to him and said, "for crying out loud mate, give it a rest, you're even embarrassing me!"

Most people have a limit and don't want to hear it all the time.

It is just a word though.

It isn’t racist, sexist, homophobic, etc.

It’s literally just a word that society decided (for no apparent reason) is something to be frowned upon.

Really.

You're in a restaurant with the lady-friend and at a nearby table some half-wit swears continuously and you don't mind cos it's just a word.

I promise you that if/when you have kids you will change opinion. I swear non stop in most aspects of my life, but the second the kids are about I stop, I absolutely hate other people swearing infront of my kids, any kids come to that matter, just not needed.

however, I do understand at football people boil over, and its a different kettle of fish. I honestly still feel bad for how I swore after the playoff loss at carrow road, had a boy about 10 infront of me, with his dad, and I let rip and to this day I still think of the dads face. I did say sorry, he laughed it off, sort of.

You go to a match you expect to hear it. Goes with the territory. As for grassing who it was, tell the club the seat number, well that’s worse than the swearing.

Swearing continuously isn’t the same as just saying it occasionally.

Like my example at the burton game. Say (shout) the word once and suddenly I’m getting some be11end moaning. It’s football.

I think calling someone a c**t in the moment every now and again at football isn’t a crime personally. Screaming it in a restaurant continuously isn’t something i would do. Football and restaurant isn’t the same at all though is it.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll TRY to watch my language with kids about. Only cos it’s not really my place to know what kids can handle hearing swear words and which can’t. That’s nothing to do with me so I will try. And do try.

But if I did swear at the football like the Burton example, I don’t think I should be getting moaned at for swearing in the heat of the moment in the 97th minute at a football ground.

The example of swearing continuously and loudly in a restaurant in this thread is nonsense though. You (not actually you) can’t possibly compare swearing at a football ground and in a restaurant. The social situation is completely different.

The fact you've refered to the bloke in a derogatory way implies you didn't appreciate his response. Obviously he didn't appreciate yours. He is entitled to react without being labelled imho.

You’d be so proud of me TWTD, I decided this summer id stick to one takeaway per week. Which I’ve stuck to. So tonight I am having a Chinese after 6 days of eating quite healthily.

I just thought with uni starting again this week, I ought to have a few months where I at least try to eat much better.

Think I’ve had three or four KFCs since June. One of which was last week in Wycombe with some of my mates on my course.

I moved yesterday to a different seat. A complete bell end moaning at everything little thing the Town we’re doing. Slagging off Chambers. Had zero football knowledge and swore loudly at every opportunity. He had a Town top on and brown work shoes. You do get some characters at an away game.
