I don't know if the West Ham players take the knee, but it's quite hypocritical to take a stance against racism, sexism, discrimination of any kind, and then turn a blind eye to bullying, which children more than anyone needs to learn is unacceptable. Massive own goal by Moyes. He's not a real animal lover.
West Ham & Moyes didn't handle it great. They should have given him a 2 game ban even as a token punishment.

Probably time now for everyone to move on though. He's had the cats taken away from him, he's been fined 2 weeks wages and he's been dropped by Adidas. There may or may not be a criminal investigation but any punishment beyond all that is probably a step too far.
I disagree!

Had I been his manager, I'd have sacked him on the spot! He'd be out on his ear! FFS, a 2 week loss of wages is a joke! £250,000. taken away from him - I bet his bank manager isn't sweating too much!

Also, as no normal, rational person would do what Zouma did, perhaps we should look deeper into what made him do what he did?

Finally, I hope that the RSPCA DOES get a conviction against this over-paid 'clown' and that his present club - and others who may be looking to hire him in the future - do the right thing and treat him as most right-thinking people would!

I can only guess at what "Alf Garnett" would have made of all this!...

I have to agree with Dick that the MET is utterly extraordinary, but not in the way she intended. :)

I have unravelled your cryptic message Dex, nice one :D
I now hear Carrie JOHNSON is a leading contender for the vacant MET position ...

I think she'll be deciding who gets the job.

Alf Garnett probably would have poisoned the cat because there were too many of its type invading the area :)

BJ's been questioned by the police. :D

Only by email questionnaire though. I hope they'll start using interview by questionnaire for bank robbers, drug dealers, etc.

I also hope the police officers who have the power to issue a fixed penalty notice are Labour voters. They could ultimately have the power to oust him. :D

I'd like to see BJ get a £50 fine and appeal it...all the way to the Supreme Court. He can even use government money, just like Iain Duncan Smith did against the Information Commissioner to avoid publishing documents that showed he lied through his teeth. :D

I'd like to see BJ trade pre-off racing with government money every afternoon by doing something obvious like backing the favourite in every race. I'm sure no one would notice until his lifetime P&L got to about -£10 billion and then it would be swept under the carpet

Can't believe I've just walked out of a supermarket at half-ten in the morning, with a whole day in front of me! I thought it was four in the afternoon. :D

It's not often I visit this thread after an interaction at the supermarket but I was just getting a trolley out, a woman was standing behind me waiting to get a trolley, so I handed her mine and got another one. She was over the moon as though it's the nicest thing in the world anyone can do. :D

It's something I've always done, not so much to be a gentleman but to get them out of my way, but I still get credit for it. :lol:

Despite being on the verge of nuclear war breaking out, it's good to hear partygate back on the news and BJ being interviewed under caution, albeit by questionnaire. :D

"By best result"? Have you got a cold.? Hope you've taken an LTR test and are dutifully self-isolating as advised (rather than legally required to).
