Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Agreed. Since when has he exhibited racist behaviour?
Slanderous allegation.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
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

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
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.

Some snowflakes don’t like that.
And anybody who doesn’t enjoy bigotry towards homosexuals is a “snowflake”?
Pretty happy to be a snowflake if that’s the case.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
Wait, so you’re openly saying that you have no problem with homophobia?

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

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
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.

Gay people have a sense of humour.
You obviously don’t.

Re: Statement from Nigel Travis
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.
