Why did they announce that there had been racist chanting from the ponty end?

    Yes the point I was trying to make was if someone did a nazi salute to me I would t be offended like a Jewish person I wouldn't lose and sleep over it. Same when people sing the **** the pope I don't get offended just think your abit simple. But to a Catholic it would be offence same as if we sang **** Allah etc.

    The difference is that I can choose to ignore little timmy and his wonderful song can't I? Scroll on, turn the TV over, not go see him in concert. When I'm at a Barnsley match I go to watch the footy, I don't want to sit listening to the bigoted knuckle draggers and their hilarious chants, but I can't scroll past them or change the channel can I? I have to either sit there and listen to it or walk out and stop going to the football because it makes me feel sick.

    Luckily for me (and other sat close by) we can't tell what they are singing so wouldn't know if it was offensive or not.

    The Pope isn't at Oakwell most match days though, so why bring it to Oakwell? Utterly pointless. Bring chants that are pro BFC.
