re: #213 Charles

Actually, I’m going to disagree with your assessment there. There is no cleaning up of their public act: It was always a cesspit to begin with. There was never any ambiguity with the BNP insofar as the general British electorate were concerned; the ‘paper thin veneer’ was never a cover where the BNP are concerned. We know full well that they’re a bunch of racist fucks and that’s all there is to it.

One thing I will make a strong point of is this: Your description of ‘Football Yahoos’ is about as wide of the mark as it gets. There has been an immense amount of money, manpower and will over the last twenty years or so, pumped into making the game of football more respectable. If You look back you’ll see that, before today, I’ve railed against the idea of the ‘football hooligan’ as conceived by various lizards along the way.

I tell you this: The followings of the various football clubs these days have a pride in knowing that their clubs are represented with honour and respect wherever they may travel and that whomsoever should visit their respective territories are accorded the same respect. There will always be those of us whose enmity and rivalry will be made apparent, but that will always be a matter best left to those of us who understand such.

Rest assured, however, that such enmities are regional and rival in nature. Never will they be racial. Never will we be a tool for the political machinations of those who would promote racial hatred.

‘Kicking Racism Out Of Football’………. That’s our thing……… Watching the game and screaming ourselves hoarse………. that’s our thing……….. Taking the piss out of the other crowd………… that’s our thing………….. Maybe even banging our heads together once in a while……….. that’s our thing.

But letting a bunch of shite like the BNP take over our beautiful game in the name of racial nationalism?

Forget it
