VAR must be involved.

I think there is a difference and it's every person's right to be offended if they find something offensive.HalifaxWhite wrote:new liberal world.
Yet there is absolutely no difference

I am surprised its taking so long though, suggests no strong evidence.
Who is the 2nd player that supposedly heard it? Where on the pitch was he at the time? Not heard a name mentioned.

the game was held up while the report to the referee was made. That's how I heard it anyway, I didn't see the game, just listened to radio commentary.lufctrav wrote:Did Leko immediately bring it to the ref or Kiko's attention? I feel like this is something that could've been sorted out there and then on the pitch with an immediate apology if it were a misunderstanding on Kiko's behalf.
What we have now however is a media shitstorm over an incident that could very well be an honest mistake by a player who has spent less than 12 months playing in a foreign country.
I imagine that if what Kiko said had any true malice to it, it would've come out immediately after the game, if not during. Instead all we got from Charlton post match were cryptic hints that there was an incident of some sort.

The other end of the spectrum is that tomorrow, I celebrate my 60th (diamond) wedding anniversary. Went into the Jewellers yesterday to buy a present for her indoors. The guy said 'we don't get many requests for diamond wedding gifts'. He was a bit disappointed I didn't order a large diamond tiara. I think we have been very lucky and I do not imply any criticism of anyone who takes a different path in life.rigger wrote:The first girl I ever kissed was French.Grumpy wrote:Do you have something against British girls Rigger?

Since then I have been out with English girls, but generally I've preferred foreign women.

Spanish x 2
Italian x 2
American

I don't mind English women but I find they tend to be more interested in gossip, social status, soap operas and money than I am.
Foreign women enjoy more cultural pursuits like music, art, sport and .. er .. sex
The mere fact they are in a different country automatically hardwires their brain - or it reflects the personal traits that allowed them to move abroad in the first place - and I very much prefer spending time on those activities than the things most English women in my experience like to do.
Also, when you first start seeing them it's really fun playing the comparison game about everything. It's fascinating to me. I love learning new languages, customs and accents, etc, plus the music, art, food and films are opened up if someone you know can lead you through them.
I know I'm not the only one that thinks like this too
Oh, and English women tend to dress the age they wish they were rather than the age they are : foreign women are almost always more elegant IMHO.
