Mark I agree, but some just want to keep pushing the limits to see what they can get away with, then blame the system, the club, in fact anyone, but themselves, for the almost inevitable retribution.

I just found out that calling you an irritating cu** isn't allowed, as my comment was removed by admin, so would it be socially acceptable if I called you an itchy fanny?

I think that on this case it should be taken as it was intended. There are no links to the "Romany" race with Ostlund and therefore it was a question of his hair. Much like Jason Lee and his "Pineapple head", Graham Taylor being a turnip, Lightborne being nick named "still-born"... all are observations as opposed to discrimination.

Go forth and multiply you ungroomed person of illigitimate scandinavian origin who bears physical resemblance to a well travelled, mobile home dwelling, unfairly persecuted person of Romany heritage!

Potters22. Grow up? You want to learn to read my friend, as I never said it was racist!!! In fact, I said the opposite!
"RAF "Surely just having a pop at someone purely because they have long hair cannot be construed as racist?" I agree with you it's not."

So when one of these caravan pulling thieving rats steals your grans life savings for cutting down a tree that wasnt even on her property or whatever scam they have on the go you wont be calling him "dirty thieving pikey scum", and if 20 of their caravans turn up in your garden for a month you'll welcome the pleasant romany people into your house for tea and biscuits?
The bloke had long hair............He's a pikey......the goal keeper had Moobs....he was a fat bastard...........call what it what you like , its just insults to wind the opposition up..........so take you P.C rubbish and shove it cause ive had enough of idiots like you on here

"What about 'Slanty Eyed Twat' at a chinese or Korean player then?
Is that acceptable?
That comment refers purely to the persons features (in this case eyes), just as the Gypo jibe relates to Ostlunds hair."
Omg!! Stupid comment. Slanty eyes are not something that can be changed as quickly as a haircut. If he didnt want abuse he could use a measley % of his earnings to get it cut off. Ostlund has made the choice to look like that. If a player could change his eyes to have slanty eyes it would then become acceptable to take the piss!!

in the mid eighties at home against Grimsby their keeper was crowned king of the gypos after the stick he was given. The whole Boothen End were chanting "gypo" at him, all in good faith though and the keeper saw the funny side of it too. Funny how things change!!

I think people were out for him more because he hounded the referee at every moment, he shoved Pugh in the face and towards the end of the game he shoved Fuller in the face three times in a row and should have been sent off for it. Instead, Fuller went and kicked their centre back, who made a meal of it, causing Fuller to be booked.

You should be ashamed of yourself. What if you, or your wife or your kids were, as many players have to suffer, the target of the taunts?
Would you describe yourself as stupid?

OK. I think everyone has had the opportunity to make their points on this thread and it is now becoming a repeat of a repeat of a repeat in terms of the same angles being covered.
I'm now going to trundle it over to "everything else" where those who wish to continue to bicker on can do so away from the football section.
Ta very muchly.

Trying to encourage some intelligent debate, and I think managed to achieve this with the thread. Of course it was guaranteed and intended to wind people up; however, it took a while for people in the 70s and 80s to realise that making monkey noises to black people was offensive to black people, whilst not being offensive to monkeys in the slightest. For the record I am no fan of PC nonesense, but can also see through people who dismiss it so that they can continue with their ignorant and oppressive views. Ostlund was a long-haired cheating twat, who was also one of their more effective players. Don't think he was particularly put off by the taunt, and possibly raised his game because of it. Does anyone remember the taunt for Sammy Lee in the 80s?... that was quality, and I'm sure did make a difference to the final result. More worrying for me was the child, about 7/8 years old, sat in the row behind me. Everytime a Southampton player got the ball he shouted "gaybod" in a Cartman-like shriek. Curiosity finally got the better of me (after about 80 minutes) as I had to turn round to look if both him and the adult he was with were for real. Pity the boy if he grows up to be gay. (Hope Pop will stand by him whatever). I hope he doesn't grow up hating gypsies too (though he probably will), or he'll never get chance to appreciate the guitar virtuoso of Paco de Lucia and the singing of Cameron de La Isla. (Or is it still OK to hate black people but love their music?) Anyway, I'm off now to get my haircut. The ponytail's never quite looked right since I went bald on top.
