Not sure why but I imagined this being said in the voice of "Grouty" from Porridge.

Wasn’t it to do with a list of names from the club he allegedly give to mondeoman Who duly posted them up
I think mondeoman got a perma ban though I must admit I can’t remember the actual ins and outs as it was eons ago

OFF was never permabanned from the old board, but decided to stick to STFUO on fb and the twatters after one too many arguments with CEB & Co. He did pop back for a bit last year but didn’t hang around long.

You can accuse him of being shouty at matches, being editor/writer of a vanity “arsewipe” :) fanzine for 20 years, the occasional dodgy spot of thoughtless casual homophobia in the past, and telling us all about his winning bets after the event, but racism: nah, no way.

So racism is bad but homophobia is alright?

And anybody who doesn’t enjoy bigotry towards homosexuals is a “snowflake”?

Pretty happy to be a snowflake if that’s the case.

You can’t complain about homophobia unless you’re an actual bender yourself, so it seems.

What a tool.

My thoughts about “being offended on someone’s behalf”

My boss is gay.

A number of my (excellent) colleagues are gay.

Two good friends from my childhood have since come out as gay.

I partied and hung out with homosexuals and lesbians on a weekly basis at college.

At uni, my friend circle included a number of gays and lesbians


The most loyal, closest and important friend of my missus (and subsequently a good friend of mine) is gay.

So I’ve spent a lot of my life with gays. Talk to them all the time. In serious, sober moments. In whimsical drunk moments. In crises. And in everything in between.

And do you know the thing which gay guys and girls despair at the most?

Funnily enough it’s not the homophobia directed at them. Sadly, they come to expect it. What really gets them down is when their straight friends get dismissed as “snowflakes”. Or as “virtue signalling”.

When their straight friends stick up for them and are immediately shot down as if they are only defending them through some sort of defect. As if only somebody with something wrong with them or something to prove would ever stick up for gays whilst not being gay themselves.

When some dinosaur brushes over homophobia and accuses the straight guy who calls it out as “getting offended on somebody else’s behalf”, they feel even more powerless.

Thankfully this attitude is dying out. But it’s taking a painfully long time.

Yeah, and they don’t generally find homophobic old dinosaurs who try to excuse their bigotry by calling people “snowflakes” that funny.

Really good job that you can’t be bothered to go to the game tomorrow. A great club like Orient doesn’t need bigots through the turnstiles.

You don’t know me so don’t call me a bigot just because you have a sense on humour bypass.
