If it was towards a fan I doubt it would have been an issue, but directed towards a Rovers staff member (physio according to the replies, if you believe them) is a bit crass to say the least.
The swans fans over here love a round of ‘she’s got chlamydia’ if any women away fans stand out. The charming bunch, but it’s never got them into trouble. |  |

If it was towards an unknown fan (so not bantz with a friend who the singers knew wouldn't mind) it would have been every bit as much unacceptable. Would you have thought it OK if sung at your partner or daughter? |  |

I’ve no idea whether or not you have a wife or a teenage daughter - if you do, how would they feel if they were in their workplace and a bunch of bell ends chanted ‘get your tits out’.
It’s really not acceptable. |  | | |

I don’t think people are debating that, but if someone had said a L1 club has been fined for shouting that at a physio and we did a board poll for how much the fine would be, I bet most would have said at most 10-15% of that figure. |  |

I really hope the next time a player visibly removes his shorts on the sideline doesn’t get greeted with the usual cheers and wolf whistles because it’s so offensive. | |

I wasn’t debating the financial penalty but a couple on this thread seem to think that chant is ok. The financial penalty is immaterial- just don’t chant that. | | | |

The ‘where does it end’ argument is usually used by people who have difficulty adjusting to what is and what isn’t acceptable. | | | |

....what is acceptable?
Can we call referees wan kers now?
Can we call them fat?
I assume not, because they are "in their workplace".
Do the same rules apply? If not, then fair enough. | |

The whole thread is about insults and you've made a point of saying they aren't really a problem then you get upset if someone aims a fairly light one your way.
If you're upset about that one why shouldn't the woman having the insults hurled her way but many people be upset? Why shouldn't a "fat" referee be upset?
Your double-standards are showing.
