    RE: Legal reasons?

    The press have to make sure they don't prejudice any legal proceedings. Is this an example of that?

    No it's an example of bias by a deedar reporter in a deedar paper.

    if it was deemed by the FA as anything more then i think it would have been called something else
    they dont want to be seen biased and siding to a court procedure which involves so many views

    I think the FA would refer to it as &quot;a jolly old sing-a-long&quot; with &quot;gay banter&quot; aplenty.</p>

    Bunch of fusty old farts who don't know arse from elbow!

    They got away with it with the FA.

    It's not a collision now, it's an 'elbowing incident'.

    Credit where it's due for sorting it out. Well done Daily Star.

    </p>

    As it's been so readily changed I think it's safe to assume the writer wasn't trying to make light of the incident and was guilty only of being less sensitive about the terminology than we are.</p>
