[quote=ninfan ]Flip the scenario, retard - if lineker had said something negative or offensive about immigrants, the same people currently lauding him would be the first ones calling for him to be sacked.
I'm not sure it will help, because it appears ninfan is one of those folks who can't cope with a logical argument, but nobody seems to have quite addressed his point directly.
The obvious difference, ninfan is that Lineker's tweet isn't at all offensive, no matter how you twist it. From what I can work out those complaining are upset that he isn't being offensive, because that's what public figures are supposed to be now we've all voted to be racists. I've tried to work out a correct analogy of flipping the situation, but there isn't really one.
If Lineker was actually being offensive and racist, there might be a reasonable argument for him being sacked, though I think you're a bit too dim witted (is that an allowed expression?) to understand the difference.
This thread hits a new low, even by Singletrack standards. I'm not sure how someone can get away with calling someone a retard, or make clumsy accusations of paedophilia and not be pulled up on it.
i was called a necrophile on here, don't think the mods even batted an eyelid, but I guess being accused of ****ing dead bodies is humourous. 🙄

I'll run it by The So-Called Liberal PC Brigade and get back to you.

Yep you're good 😉

I don't think you're going to find many people on here who would agree with attacking Lineker for what he wrote. So you might be waiting a long time.
Go on Twitter, however, and there are plenty of "'ard workin' British taxpayers" who want him to be sacked.
Wandered in whilst a bit bored after lunch.
So far I'm pretty please not to have anything to do with foorball, twitter or shit newspapers.
