Southern Knights promote, hatred at game.

[club man]

The whole of the B-Grade wore t-shirts with the image of our club ref Tom with the symbol, a circle with a line thru it and underneath HOBBIT HUNTER, they even presented Tom with one of these disgusting t-shirts. They continued with the deformation of our club ref at their end of game presentation with at least 15 of us there drinking.

During the A-Grade game the crowd was using Racial abuse toward or Turkish player calling him ABDUL-INIO.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR WHITE ARM BANDS, YOU HYPOCRITES

[ExtraTime]

Humor isn't your strong point is it...

Lets not get started on your crowd please ...

You guys won and stay up .. we battle to stay up..... thats life

[legga]

Agreed... All getting a bit much... Its just a game for fuck sake... Poor form again...

We dont make it easy on ourselves!!

[KING NUGGETT]

promote hatred?
club_man chill out man, your way too up tight obviously Knights were just having a laugh.
PEACE OUT....

[rooboy1986]

Yeah. Im with nugget... Take it easy club man and chico... It is just a bit of fun...

[Los Del Eague]

Yeah. Im with nugget... Take it easy club man and chico... It is just a bit of fun...

unfortunately that's the problem with a deemed racial slur.........its not the opinion of the one making the slur
that counts, its the opinion of the one in the line of fire.
IF club man, the player and Tom aren't happy with it then its their right to say so.

It may have been meant in jest but in hindsight it may not have been the best idea.

[Knight15]

Lol, now I've heard it all

Quality bunch down at Maso's

We've have almost finished the season, we played and lost away (in the B's) against Brahma, Vista, Inter and PHW all have been enjoyable games we have had a beer and laugh afterwards

When we played Maso's although we won, we witnessed the worst cheating I have ever witnessed in 20 odd years of playing the game - the referee was constantly abusing players, booked 6 players and sent 2 off! All this and we still won!!!!

As a laugh we wore a humourus T-Shirt, rather than getting 'revenge' (i.e. cheating) and presented the shirt after the game thinking he would have a laugh - your B-Team understood the reason and thought it was funny

As for your number 10, whilst I certainly don't in anyway condone racist remarks he constantly grabbed his crotch and called us all Pommie C@@nts (no mention of that) so it works both ways

And finally the presentation, did you mention one of your players congratulating our player for missing a penalty at the end?

Really you play the 'innocent victim' card really well but personally I don't think anyone believes it anymore

Cheating from start to finish is the quickest way to promote violence not a pratical joke that was taken the wrong way

Wear your white armbands next week, it could do you some good!

[club man]

I'm been uptight cause my players were been Racially abused and club official defamed is that right?

[KING NUGGETT]

this is all just madness....

come on get over all this BS & lets make things better for our beautiful game not worse...

Now Kiss & make UP

[Knight15]

For the record I only heard one person calling out ABDUL-INIO, I actually thought it was his name - call me stupid!

As such on behalf of Southern Knights I would like to apologise as stated earlier we don't condone racism in any way

Also if Tom was offended by our silly prank we are sorry

Well done for your victory yesterday and good luck in Division 2 next year hopefully we will join you

[MegaBonus]

It’s so sad that this forum has turned into a 'point scoring tool' intended to show up/accuse/embarrass etc etc other forumites and or clubs

maso's if they felt that aggrieved should’ve dealt with it yesterday with the knights (appropriately off course) or taken it up with the league

let’s not forget...the AFL propaganda arm (the advertiser) scours this site for anti soccer stories...so much for us all being members of a 'footballing family'

[gone]

Agreed. Either complain to the offending club through appropriate channels, committee to committee, or complain officially to the league, but leave off with posting rubbish on here. Just shows you're not really that offended if you're not making official complaints, but instead playing silly games on a message board.

[BPBC]

Which parts offensive and which parts racist? Good to see the Knights lads have a sense of humour, way better response to poor reffing than beating the shite out of him

[KS2011]

lol that linesmen is a shocker tried to get me a redcard by telling the ref i threatned him all i said was "how about we have a fair game" coz he was cheating beyond belief..

The racial taunts however uncalled for and disgusting, double standards guys... We live in a multicultural country comments like that are narrow minded

[Bomber]

Havent we got a whaaa whaaa thread you can all use?

[Paleon Patros Germanos]

Im with the Skopjan on this one.

[some bloke]

Maybe if the knights boys put as much effort into there trainings and games as they did the shirts maybe they wouldnt be sitting bottom

[club man]

is your club wearing white arm bands, with racist comments like that you should be ashamed

The arm bands are about violence anyway.

Maybe humour should be kept within each others clubs as some people can't take it and other can. Knowing a couple of the Knights blokes, I highly doubt they meant anything to be offensive, more so just a laugh.

Downs gave Farm a pasting in their newsletter at the start of the year, we just had a laugh and called Centrelink on them

[club man]

We at the Maso's apologize that we do not have a sense of humor.

[Knight15]

Guys time to move on we Knights have apologised for the racist remark which personally I didn't know was racist. We will definitely be talking to the person involved. The prank was just that and as someone said was perhaps a better option than some other potential actions Whether Masos want to admit and apologise for some of their actions is up to them - however I won't comment any further on what part they played. Should they wish to pursue this with the SAASL or any other format we have plenty more we could say

Don't cheat and we wouldn't be commenting on this thread,{ easy fixed.} And i'm pretty sure Knights did this as pure humour, nothing else. As for the comments made to the player hope it wasn't racisim, but i have to agree with a lot of what Knight15 wrote.
