Good post Dave.

how is being called a stormtrooper classed as racism?

if you think that calling stewards stormtroopers is a racist comment then I am very much afraid that as I have long suspected common sense is an attribute sadly lacking in our stewards,as for actually telling stewards to their faces I have several times on the old hilton Park had occasion to speak with the stewards about their attitude and manner of working if I have an excuse to point out the error of their ways I shall do so and I could do with a little bit less of this confrontational attitude from the said stewards

You say it all really. Speaking to HP stewards is likened to talking to someone who couldn't care less about the safety certificate.
All I am saying is that we are looking out for each and every single person in that stadium in accordance to the rules given to us.
We then have too enforce them if they are broken.
Its all about respect, and in the heat of the moment, no one likes being told what to do especially when things are getting tasty on the pitch, that I can handle.
But is there any need to continue this berating after the season?
As for intelligence or whatever you think you have, then Google the word Stormtrooper ( and I don't mean the Star Wars people), and you will see again we are being likened too Nazi's with you're comment, therefore deeming it racist.
At least I have apologised at the first juncture, something you no doubt, don't have in you, as you will still continue too fail to see that your comments have been taken as racist , and will still continue too argue the toss regardless!

I have now decided that I will no longer be posting answers to you on this particular thread as I am getting a bit concerned about your continued misuse of the word to or too as you keep refering to it all I need to say to you is this I have spoken to several people there at the ground and when I have said to them "do you know who leythdave is " the answer has invariably been "oh I yon mon he's a bloody idiot" keep up the good work keeping us all safe at the match.

im sorry but how is being classed as a star wars character racist?
abusive maybe which im sure peawapp will apologise for (wont you peawapp) but not racist.

if calling someone stormtrooper is abusive of course I will apologise,but I have to say that seventy years ago many many people would have been proud to have been called a stormtrooper

Original post could also be classed as abusive. I watched the program and even though it was the BBC our own Alex Murphy didn't really have a bad word for Eddie.

I enjoyed the programme, what a sad end for him.
He no doubt had a hand in bringing the BBC Floodlit Cup to the Game. We did well in that comp, even beating the pies at Central Park in one final. Bring it back for the Championship Clubs as we need to win something soon!
