Why Eidur? Why?

[steve]

Dunno why anyone gives a f1ck...even if he was calling a mate or someone a 'little hitler' so what? Does that mean he's a Nazi?

As others have pointed out it's muck raking b0ll0cks that i wouldn'y wipe me arse with...i hope he doesn't dignify this sh1te with a response...the day the Star and the like dwindle out of existence will be a happy one...

I accidentally did a Nazi salute watching a football match, some player got sent off and i decided to wave in a posh 'toodle-ooh/shove off' type manner, it wasnt until i realised there was a photographer pointing his camera at me that i noticed my hand was inadvertantly going a bit nazi, it didnt help that the player also happened to be black.


Im not sure what my point is, either its easily done or im a bit of a nazi too

haha accidental nazi. THE WORST KIND. :rofl:

You just have to love modern Britain. In the week of an election a footballer does something which is only offensive if done in a certain way and context and it makes the front page of a newspaper.

Only the very very stupid will care about this.

Only the very very stupid will care about this.

Damn them stupid jews!

 

[DoublePivot]

nazi? maybe the nose thing, but he's not holding out his hand national socialist style. he's pointing. by that standard, every time i tell my son he's got snot and "go get a tissue" I'm a stark raving nazi.

 

[Fergus]

Every time I've seen a Hitler salute performed in a pub or at a party it was invariably performed to take the piss out of Nazis, BNP members of other racist filth. This is tabloid journalism at its vilest.

 

[Azazello]

Tabloid nonsense - if he's a Nazi, then so's Freddie Star.

If this was van Persie you lot would be outraged for sure :lol:

If this was van Persie you lot would be outraged for sure :lol:

That would make him a Nazi rapist, if that doesn't make your blood boil then what does?

 

[AngerManagement]

if he scores the winner against Man City tomorrow he can celebrate Prince Harry style in full Nazi uniform for all I care.

[Garm]

A nazi salute is a straight right arm, flat hand showing your palm. Looks more like he's pointing at something. Question is, why is he making a moustache with his other hand?

 

[RobinLeonard]

So we are turning from spice boys into third reich boys? Not impressed Harry. :-|

In other news. What a stupid story.

 

[Coalhada]

At the risk of stating the obvious, people who do the Nazi salute (or Roman salute, as Italian fascists a la di Canio would have it) without mockery don't also do the Hitler moustache.

 

[spurslenny]

yawn. How tiresome.

 

[mil1lion]

It doesn't look convincing to me. But...

do people still care about this shit? :roll:

 

[ParkLaneJon]

"Pals of the striker denied he was doing a Nazi salute and said he was telling his mates a dirty joke about a Mexican, which involved sniffing his finger."

Genius.

Genius.

So he's not a nazi any more, he's a racist? :wink:

 

[StanSpur]

What a load of rubbish, I mean is he really a Nazi supporter or just p!ssing around in a pub. My grandparents were polish and went through WW2 over there and I support Spurs so the sterotype says i should be mortally offended and condemn this player for his actions but truth be told a lot of us, including me, have made this gesture - normally mocking Nazi thinking rather than supporting and often when someone is being a d!ck. Get over it. The papers are a joke the way they try and stir up crap like this.

 

[Maske2g]

Agree with Stanspur. Another pull of the racist card, for what was probably a bit of banter. I walked out of Coral's the other day doing the salute to my Jewish dad, who was in the car.

He said "Watch out for the woman in there, she's like a member of the gestapo".

He was right. When I walked out doing a basil Fawlty he rolled up. if a meat van drove by, I probably would have been arrested for offending the lamp post.
