Redemption
One less gobshite...
A bit thick rather than a bit racist most likely.
No chance he didn't do it on purpose. He's an idiot.I mean...... benefit of the doubt. It could just be he was covering his mouth and waving at the camera and its caught it like this. They are in a restaurant to be fair. He could have food in his mouth.
Look at the mix all over the table. Lots of different races. Surely no one would do that.
Am I being nieve or has he said other stuff that's a bit....
No I agree. His explanation seems plausible to me. Just very unfortunate.Why the f*** would he randomly do a Hitler salute surrounded by multiple ethnicities.I mean...... benefit of the doubt.

Why would he do that? Makes zero sense. Even if he is an idiot.No chance he didn't do it on purpose. He's an idiot.
I was at a Forest home game and a bloke in the row in front stood up and shouted a racist term at an opposing player who was taking a throw in, oblivious to the black fans who were sitting near to him. It nearly all kicked off.No I agree. His explanation seems plausible to me. Just very unfortunate.Why the f*** would he randomly do a Hitler salute surrounded by multiple ethnicities.
I mean that really is just idiotic and purposely offensive. I think Hennessy probably did it without thinking what it means and without wanting to be offensive, rather that it was a silly action to perform for a photo. Like I say, he’s probably learned a lot from it.I see many similar morons, who come to Germany and think it’s absolutely hilarious to goose-step about whilst giving it the „Heil Hitler!“
I wish I was making that up, but I’m not.
I suspect the Polizei are of a similar mind too.
The guy taking the photo was a German teammate. As if that's a coincidence... He's obviously just a moron who thought it was funny.Do you know him? Has he got previous?

I think this is probably right. I have no doubt he did it but I wouldn't have him down as a racist.If he did it then it doesn’t automatically make him evil. I don’t for one minute think he’s a nazi, and he probably didn’t even think too much about it. I bet he’s well up to speed now and wouldn’t dream of doing anything like it again. Probably the biggest wake up call of his life.
That sort of stuff beggars belief really. We can all be a bit silly and naive at times but you’ve got to be a proper scummer to behave like that. It also doesn’t represent football fans, it represents idiots.There was a case here recently (well, next door in Bayern) where some England fans prior to the Germany-England Nations League Match, decided that as well as letting off fireworks in their hotel room, they would parade around outside the hotel doing the Nazi salute.
I mean, if there is one Lände you would not do that in, it’s Bayern.
Suffice to say, the Polizei got involved and it will not end well for them.
In the past when I mentioned to people in the UK my grandmother was German, most typically they would reply: 'NAZI!!'I see many similar morons, who come to Germany and think it’s absolutely hilarious to goose-step about whilst giving it the „Heil Hitler!“

How did you work that one out!
Yay!I'm going for 11:00am announcement.
