His religious beliefs. Live with it. Doesn't matter what you think or what he thinks.


It's not his religion, though, it's his interpretation or otherwise of his religion. Or he was making excuses and obfuscating.

I don't care (as I stated in my previous post) what anybodies sexual preferences are, it's up to them, what I find amazing is that people on both sides seem to believe they are correct and the others are w@nkers, which makes you as bad as each other, and the fact that you cannot even see that explains, the intelligence of each and every one of you sadly


Sometimes name-calling is the easiest route to take with name-callers, I'm afraid. It's more a "we will agree to disagree" but with people who don't actually want to engage with reasoned arguments.

I do it with toss3rs, too.

And we do see it, but it's often not worth the effort. Sadly.

I totally agree with you there, it's happening at the moment in Iran really, you have two sides who are too arrogant to admit that they might have to give in on something and look weak, so no doubt fighting will erupt again, all because they can't just negotiate properly and give a little

It is clear you don't understand the issue.

And this has nothing to do with, some on here calling out Ashton's association with ultra-conservative Farage, yet staying quiet or even supporting Morsy when he takes, year-after-year, an (even more) ultra conservative stance (on behalf of the club).

It's the hypocrisy man.

Not sure the similarities are there. For Trump, yes, but for Iran it's a bit more complicated.

Why more complicated for Iran? They are imprisoning and hanging the opposition, so where is the difference?

He isn't going anywhere but this is a huge offseason for him.

He has to give Mckenna a proper squad he can compete with.


I dislike him as a character but ultimately accept he’s a good CEO for us. Annoying to be honest.

I'm one of the people that didn't agree with the Farage saga but also thought there had been a bit of an overreaction in some quarters. However I don't think Ashton's helped himself at all by being front and centre of the celebrations. It's staggering that he hasn't had the self awareness to realise that he's not the most popular person in town at the moment and should've left the players and staff to receive the limelight. As others have rightly said, it's just not in his character to applaud in the background and he thrives at the thought of being centre of attention.


Even if the whole Farage nonsense hadn't happened, it would be weird for the CEO and chairman to be leading the promotion celebrations.

Leave it to the players and coaching staff.

it wasn't great, but it's probably the same 'progressives' that stayed shtum or even showed support when Morsy was being very, very conservative.


Patently absurd thing to say. Quite clearly there's more correlation between those defending Ashton on the basis of "getting on with football".

Can you give an example of a progressive argument for defending Morsy's behaviour? I'm genuinely perplexed as to why you think any of us would, given advancing towards equality for LGBTQ+ rights is a key progressive policy.

I'm afraid your progressive credentials do not pass the smell test. We worked through the paradox of tolerance in the 40s.

'Can you give an example of a progressive argument for defending Morsy's behaviour?'

Not an argument, but a little research would reveal, many users that defended 'Morsy's behaviour' or show, up-arrows for Morsy's behaviour and down-arrows against. And many stayed quiet. It happened for, at least, 3 years in a row and many progressives did exactly as I have already stated.

Do the research.

'I'm genuinely perplexed as to why you think any of us would, given advancing towards equality for LGBTQ+ rights is a key progressive policy.'

Loads of people criticised Morsy though and got abuse for it.

I’m baffled where you got this idea from beyond simply making it up.

Anyone who supports fascists like Farage is a c@%t and should be nowhere near the club. Fans, players, staff whoever.

Morsy was at least acting upon his religious prerogative but should have handed back the armband once he decided he couldn’t represent the club properly. People pointing that out got the same spit and rage from the bleeding knuckles and micropenis brigade on here.

In the same vein Ashton should be gone. There’s no room for mitigation there he lied to us, to sponsors and the world and got caught out. If the owners don’t can him they’ve made a huge error.

You made the statement so the burden of proof is on you. You haven't interacted with my actual question, so I can only assume you don't have an answer.

I'm sorry Libero, but basically are you saying that because he has a different opinion to yourself makes him a w@nker? Surely everyone has a right to their own opinion, especially as it's his religious belief. I can see both sides of this debate, but I wouldn't say it makes anybody a w@nker. If anything it puts you in a worse light than him to me


Now, now, its not how it works on here.

Libero and his mates are allowed to throw abuse, act condescending and call people names, its in the terms and conditions. I found this out recently.

However, under no circumstances is anybody allowed to give it back.

As long as you understand this, you will get on just great here.....
