watched the south africa V ireland game last night,and i thought it was disgusting that every time the black south african prop got the ball,he was subjected to strange animal noises coming from the irsh fans.i am glad i am a R.L.supporter and we don`t behave like this.what`s your thoughts on somethimg like this?

Dunno, never watched it. I do remember a game against bradford in the late 70's at the Boulevard when the coloured winger, david barends, was thrown so many bananas from the threepenny stand that he could have opened his own fruit shop. I also remember henderson gill picking up a banana a fan had throw from the threepenny stand and eating it.

I'm sure the irish will catch up with the rest of the world at some stage

I think you're showing your ignorance of Tendai "Beast" Mtawarira; fans around the world shout beast every time he gets the ball, that's what you hear. His nickname.

hey,bringbackabuck,pretending to be albert einstein,i am not ignorant.i am entitled to express my opinion,and it did not sound like shouts of BEAST to me.

Am I in the playground?

They were definitely shouting the beast, it happens every time he plays. I can understand how you may have misconstrued what was happening if you’ve never seen him before but it is just something that has caught on with RU supporters all over the world now.

i accept i may have misconstrued what i heard on the tele,but it was the first time i have seen this chap play.

Talking about this sort of thing, did anyone see the bottles being thrown at the NZ vs Aus game yesterday?

Was it a bit like when Thorman was here and all you heard was "YOUR SHIIIIITTTEEEE" when he got the ball

Pretending to be Albert Einstein? WTF, he's just simply correcting you when you claim Irish fans to be racist, quite a claim when you're way off. I love when people are proved wrong and the old 'I'm entitled to my opinion line comes out' worst defence you can use, you can't have an opinion on something like this, they either were or were not racist

I was jst gonna say, I've seen and heard far, far, worse at Hull matches over the years, especially off Hull fans.

RU fans are pussycats compared to us lot

So the fact that he didnt know of this players nickname and hat the fans shout show that he is ignorant......may be that your ignorant as well and didnt know of the Guvnors knowledge of this fact.

thanks fc baldy,i can take all that flack with a pinch of salt.i took worse than that during the 10 years i served in the ROYAL NAVY.

Yes?
Lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about something in particular. Ignorant

Hes accused RU fans of being racist when he lacked knowledge of the situation. You should know the facts before you decided to make unfounded accusations.

ignorance
— n
lack of knowledge, information,

I said he was ignorant about Tendai "Beast" Mtawarira, which as you can see he was.

That is not the same as calling him ignorant, which he showed himself to be with his childish response.

To start a thread with an incorrect generlisation and slur on other people and then, when politely corrected, to be rude to another poster shows a distinct lack of class.

He's created a thread claiming Irish RU fans subjected him to strange animal noises everytime he got the ball, he did say he thought or it sounded like he said they did - he's claimed Irish RU fans to be racist and he's completely wrong. So, yes very ignorant of the situation.

Irish RU fans - Not racist
Irish X-Factor judges - Racist.

My thoughts are that you were never a "Boulevarder.."

Yeah, we've all heard the rumours mate

never once in my post did i use the word racist.

"Strange animal noises at a black prop" "disgusting ru fans"

I think it's pretty clear what you are suggesting! Don't be obtuse.

How did a landmine fall on the Boulevard? Sure it wasn't a bomb?

to enlighten you,a landmine is delivered by parachute,but you are probably too young to remember the war.

So what exactly where you refering to then?

Well if you read the thread he was referring to RU fans making strange animal sounds
