I'm sure he himself set it up under an alias.

What's the point of this; the fine is probably half a weeks wages and isn't going to make any sort of impact on Wilshire's wallet or overall conduct.

Just wish there was someone like Roy Keane playing now in order to give Wilshire a right hook when going in for a challenge.

"we as a group of fans feel Jack was factually correct in his claims and that he should not be fined for engaging with fans. And we will start a new fund if he does the same next year. Also he doesn't need the money so it'll probably go to a charity if we raise enough but still surely worth £1"

F***ing hell! I am almost embarrassed for them. Up to £14 now - come on boys get your pocket money out,

If that's 'factually correct' and we took 4 points out of 6 from them last year what does that make them?

Oh, this of course:

When will these people realise that he's not been fined for the chant, he is being fined for being a repeated offender and not learning his lesson, this isn't the 1st time he's been done by the FA hence amount.

When he's a skint 40-something bin man, we'll be able to remind him that he spent £40k on a childish song

I wonder when we are going to have a victory parade

Tunnicliffe got fined 5k earlier this week for homphobic comments.

Suarez got fined 40k for racially abusing Patrice Evra.

This whole thing has been blown so far out of proportion it is untrue.

Who cares. Nothing wrong with passion. It's what makes it a genuine rivalry, not some manufactured Sky product.

Well that must be the worlds most expensive shit
