My view on this:

I think the paper was short on news (as usual) and thought they'd make something of it. Why the club went public on it I do not know.

There is a problem sometimes with indecent chanting being heard by young children as at all grounds and individuals who shout out the 'c'  and 'w' word at the top of their voices which can be heard in the side areas. This will inevitably put off families from attending who don't consider this normal behaviour.

Its a small club, Nick and A nother should speak to individuals directly and if the individuals don't like it  and persist they should be ejected. I don't see whats stopping the club, its private property and therefore if the ground rules are breached the guilty party can be asked to leave or ejected using reasonable force if necessary. Same applies in night clubs. The reasonable force is covered by common law and legislation .

There is also the problem of players language (as at all clubs) which can only be dealt with by the officials.  A player can be cautioned for using  foul and abusive language .

So that I'm not labelled a hypocrite, I do swear but like others keep it under control or use alternatives...it isn't difficult. 

I did take Gany Junior to Sevenoaks Town FC  a couple of times and don't anymore due to the language from the players.

So IMHO the behaviour of a small minority should be dealt with for the greater good of the rest of us. And the players and manager reminded of their responsibilities.  I would imagine there will be a Police presence at the Dover game which will unfortunately cost the club money but could actually sort afew people out!  Sign of the times I suppose.

the problem is Gary, that in these one on one conversations we have been getting mixed messages. the club wants our support yet doesnt want the 'old brigade' upset. To be fair everyone has tried to eradicate the C word which apart from the odd occasion is never heard. As far as f**k, sh*t and wa****r go ,sorry but you hear these on tv all the time and in regular life. Like it or not its part of society and culture today , whether thats right or wrong its a fact.

Go into any school and you will hear far worse than you do at Longmead. Go to any premier match and the chanting will be 20000 times worse. i personally sat in the CORPORATE section at Spurs for a Euro game and had a fellow suited and booted fan refer to jermaine Jenas as a c**t for the whole 90 minutes. Now i am not saying its right but it happens.

No doubt I will be singled out as a ringleader as always seems to happen and degraded as a bad parent for having a son that swears but to be honest, in todays climate I would far rather he emitted the odd swear word rather than carry a knife, mug old ladies or do drugs.  None of which he has ever got close too.

And if me calling a referee a ****er upsets anyone then I am sorry but there are a lot worse human beings walking the streets.

The saddest thing about this is it has been nothing but poor publicity for the club, has reduced the core VOCAL support to despair and in one of the biggest weeks of the season has been devisive beyond belief.

We dont see many own goals at longmead but this has to be the worst

In reply to Florida Angel, yes its a society thing  in that these words (centuries old as they are) seem to be used far more frequently than ever.

But I'd like to say thanks re the attempt to avoid it in the chanting. On a humourous note my 8 year old son thinks that you're telling the ref to 'wake up! wake up!  wake up!  (Long may that continue). There  you go, there's the alternative ! Oh okay maybe not!  Lets all sing from the same song sheet and just get behind the team (excuse play on words) tomorrow night.

Hi re this swearing biz. I just like to bang my drum and sing along with the
Barmy Army.  Without the hardcore faction revving the lads up everyone else
around us seem to be mute and deaf. Much better tonight against Billericay.

Keep it up Barmy Army. Without us it would be like attending a Tea Dance
at the Savoy.


Come on you Angels
