Dickie 0 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 He's been an idiot and I don't condone racial slurs but it is funny how a grown man calls someone a name and then tells teacher when they get called by another name. Shelvey shouldn't have done it, of course, but ffs. People love this sort of shit though as it allows them to take the moral highground. I also find it a bit unfair when, as frequently seems to be the case, what was actually alleged to have been said isn't revealed. Like the Beeb's story currently running on their site which states it was racial abuse. It's not fair because you can't judge the severity of it. I think you've nailed it there. There'll be plenty of people getting up on their high horses even though they don't know what was said. Having said that, it sounds like there must have been something that at least could have been construed as a racial element to it, and he is therefore a prize idiot at the very least. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until the truth comes out and hope it is a storm in a tea cup, managed in typical incompetent fashion by the FA.

Howmanheyman 33240 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 5 things we learned from couscous-gate: 1. Cooscoos is a stable food in Morocco 2. Morocco is the country where the wolves player is from. 3. Jonjo Shelvey's song from the toon army is the old chaka khan song 'ain't nobody'. 4. I believe NUFC will appeal the 5 match ban. 5.

Kid Dynamite 7030 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I wasn't far off with my guess. He is an Arab, and he might be smelly. I haven't heard that used since I was at school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7030 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 The bans are fines are made up on the spot it seems Terry - Black Cunt - 4 game ban £220k fine Suarez - Negro - 8 game ban £40k fine Shelvey - Smelly Arab - 5 game ban £100k fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Mirandinha used to say 'hairy mott' to lasses back in the day and be oblivious to what he'd said. (Although that might've had something to do with Gazza). Love a hairy mott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adios 717 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I find it unlikely he's got done for calling someone a couscous cunt, and that would be utterly ridiculous. I really hope he hasn't said 'sand monkey', as it would make it quite difficult to support him. 'Smelly Arab' is bad, but if he's had a go at his disability you can understand him reacting like that.

Happy Face 29 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 The bans are fines are made up on the spot it seems Terry - Black Cunt - 4 game ban £220k fine Suarez - Negro - 8 game ban £40k fine Shelvey - Smelly Arab - 5 game ban £100k fine Just looking at the numbers, the scatter plot would be reasonably linear. Low ban = high fine. Shelley fell between the two on both. Whether the slur fell between the 2 is more subjective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohhh_yeah 2967 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Five match ban and £100k fine according to HF's alerts. Cameras pretty much everywhere, but only word of mouth in this instance. Fuck these "teammates" and the media in this circumstance. Release some proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I think Finders is an outlier based on his fine as he's lower league player. The rest line up reasonably well. I don't know how they decide on games v fines like, is it their historic disciplinary record that leads to extra games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4757 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Honestly, anyone on twitter get to Toms and have a look at the "journalist" who reported the cous cous nonce thing as real before being corrected and claiming it was a piece of "fake news" perpetrated by Banter Fans rather than showing any contrition for not bothering to check his sources.
