OG

But I'm a tad angry about all this now (I know it's the aim of some, they can high five each other after another rousing victory)

I’m also annoyed that you now think I need to learn how to behave around people

I've been to London 3 times, one time, I went to Highbury, but it was all ticket. A weird concept where a ground wouldn't be full, but was just tickets bought beforehand. So I was sat outside Highbury the day we won 4-2. I hope knobheads on here find that equally hilarious "even when he goes to a game he can't get in, hahahahhah"

I had to sit in the national library for 3 days solid whilst my mum studied. I was quiet as a mouse for 3 days, knowing I'd get to see the team I love to bits. As a 14 year old, I also wasn't spoilt as a child, and didn't tantrum, cos like anyone else, I have values and respect and honour my parents.

I was devastated, and even more walking down Oxford Street hearing us getting back into it

Other recent times I stayed in Camden for 2 days, and the other (probably isn't london london), I stayed in Brentford and Staines

You know this, I don't need to explain my love for this club to you (although I do sometimes to others) . I do need to explain (and can expand massively if you want, about people I'm friends with etc), that I don't need to be educated about they way I am and think

Also, the way people act on here, and what they say, is not how they would in real life. I'm the same. Last weeks joke proves one thing to me personally, and that is, amongst some of the older people I know in the club atmosphere where I drink, I have obviously become immune to the odd times a racial remarks and comments.

In Neil Hamburger style, for once, one comment I found fairly amusing, but only in the same way as someone suggesting I eat coal, I found it funny because of the stereotype. I am not ashamed of that, and I don't care if I'm making excuses (before any pricks reply "I don't care what you and racist mates get up to".

A thread on here the other week remarked that all Egytians are mental, someone questioned that, then Mike the Sphinx said "no, they really are, I live with them", and it was left at that

Well I know 2 Egytians, one is, absolutley mental, and the other isn't. I don't really care about the stereotyping, neither did anyone on here to be honest

Why the mass hysterical outpouring when it's said about someone black, is complete madness to me. And to react like you and others did this morning, is madness to me, especially this time, as there was nil racial intent at all, none in the slightest. It was on a par with someone suggesting Vialli as a manager and me going “who was the last baldy in Norwich”.

This could go on and on, but I won't be changing the way I think because I don't need to. I had a good upbringing and although I aren't religious, I had a very good primary education at a catholic school and was taught the values of not judging anyone accept everyone for what they are

This is long because I like you OG. I might have “himmers has f**ked up again” written all over me, and I do sponge advice and listen to good advice.

But on this one, believe me, I don’t need fine tuning
