PieEater If Warnock was there he'd want them both, and 10 other strikers.


Has anyone told Warnock the Premier League squad is limited to 25 players? He'll name 2 keepers, Paddy Kenny, the 22 strikers he buys in the window and then pillage the youth team to fill in the gaps.

Whilst Warnock is still alive, Paddy Kenny is guaranteed employment.

We could tell Warnock is worth 2 strikers, (the 2 strikers being Paul Brayson and Simon Church).

The unnecessary use of 'Russian' in that sentence outs you as a casual racist - I'd rather you were out of the club.

The criticism is that he's a useless Russian, implying he's inferior to normal Russians and thus complimenting them.

Despite quoting a post that references him not being there, believe it or not, I'd forgot he got sacked.

I am a lot of things but casual rascist is not one, on the other hand someone who supports our big useless money grabbing Eastern European whilst he is bleeding the club dry and not even playing, is a tad misguided

Glad you're not - but you slipped up for a second and sounded like one.

The use of 'Russian' insinuates a link to his nationality and the trait of being useless (or money grabbing) or simply your dislike to him for being Russian. There's no two ways about it. Had we been speaking about various people, 'Russian' could have been the differentiator, but this is a thread about Pogrebnyak and there was no confusion about who you were talking about. You could swap the word 'black' or 'ginger' and it becomes more obvious as to why you're wrong...

"Please, please get this useless black guy off our payroll and out of our club, he's just a money grabbing leech"

:shock:

Generally speaking, I'm fed up with the PC brigade, but you've clearly got it wrong here.

However, on topic...

He wanted to play at a higher level yet got offered an exessive ammount of money to play for a Russian owner at Reading. His wife was happy as she could continue living in London. Who else would say no to this?! Ever since, he's put in a shift, become popular around the club but sadly for us fans, under-performed.

If he got offered a good contract at another club that suited: him, his family and the RFC then he'll be off, but until then, direct your hatred to our previous Russian owner ;)

I would argue that Pog throughout his career at Reading has been referred to as Russian or Pog, I don't think when he called Pog that useless Russian, it was an insult based on his nationality, rather just insulting the player and referring to him as Russian.

Don't have a problem with Pog leaving per se - he genuinely has no interest in playing for us - but with Murray having gone back this is the time where we need to STRENGTHEN rather than offload FFS.

If our front options at the end of January consist of Cox, HRK, Blackman and Dominic Samuel then we will be relegated this season.

I specifically didn't call him a racist, I said that he was a casual racist - admittedly the two are similar but from someone who has spent many years living abroad (including Moscow right now) I'm very aware of the dangers of both racism,casual racism and general prejudice.

Whatever way you look at it, you cannot throw 'Russian' (or black/jewish/ginger/fat...) to a sentence if the thrust of the sentence is character assassinating. What part of that do you not get? I guess it shows how deep rooted the problems are for majority caucasians when they cannot see the problem...
