'Town Full of Bombers': shame on you

What a bunch of utter f**kwits some of you truly are. The reason that some QPR fans may have cried on Saturday when they heard that chant is because living and working in parts of London at the moment is a genuinely unnerving experience. I should know: one of the July 21 bombs went off at my station. People are scared.

Take a look at this from the excellent site iamf**kingterrified.com:

1. The other day, four bombs went off in London. A load of people got blown to pieces on the London Underground, then - a short while later - a load more got blown to pieces on the number 30 bus. Some died. Plenty more were terribly maimed. London's had better days.

2. Two weeks later: four more bombs. Mercifully, they didn't go off properly and no one was killed. Didn't do much to calm London's spirits though...

3. A day later, a suspected suicide bomber (a confused Brazilian electrician, as it turns out) is shot dead by policemen at Stockwell station. People are getting fritzy. And shot.

4. Bombs. Shootings. Sirens. Police cordons. Evacuations. Spot checks. Bag searches. Sirens. Helicopters everywhere. Constant f**king sirens. What is this? The Summer of Sam?

5. Going on with our London lives is not something we're doing as a protest to the bombers. We just sort of have to.

6. We're sick of this whole 'courageous London' thing. It's an over-easy media tag that means nothing. People have to live and work in this stinking city, so we get on the trains and we get on the buses and we keep our fingers crossed that the person sitting opposite us isn't about to press the red button in his pocket.

7. Or if he does, that he's mixed the chemicals wrong.

8. Fear is something you can grit your teeth against, but it doesn't stop you being afraid. If you're terrified, you're terrified. Simple as that.

9. Terrorists cause terror. That's why they're called terrorists. If they didn't cause terror, they'd be called something else - like 'annoyingists'. Saying that you're afraid doesn't mean that the terrorists have "won".

10. Some of us - whisper it - are not terribly brave.

11. We don't fancy having our legs and heads blown off by a loon clutching a sack of Semtex.

12. If you're not afraid of being blown up, then you must be a bit mental (not unlike a suicide bomber).

13. We find riding the Tube and getting on the bus a massively stressful thing. And we aren't above changing carriages or leaving the train if we get the jitters.

14. In short: some of us are f**king terrified.

So anyway, don't f**king sit there saying things like, 'I might have joined in' or 'actually it was quite funny' you backward, blinkered bunch of f**king c**ts. Don't tell me it's the same as other chants in terms of the impact it has on supporters. Do NOT DARE to presume how supporters of London teams should feel when they hear brainless s**t like that and, finally, take a look at what the Hull chairman had to say about the chanting. At least he appreciates the gravity of the situation even if you f**kers don't.

Fucking wake up.
