Slap on the wrist. Wonder what would happen if I called a pakistani a Paki? Fine / imprisonment? Hope he gets 6 months in solitary confiment.
Is there any point in the law being the same for footballers if the punishment wont be, If CKR gets found guilty of homophobia towards Albion fans he's not going to get a 3 year match ban like the 2 Derby fans did is he.
What a complete and utter waste of public finances.
I've said it before but the best thing the gay community could do is stick CKR on the cover of Gay Times. It would humiliate him far more than this trial would.

Oddly, I don't view Barton with anywhere near the level of hostility I hold for Coke Boy and El-Hadji "Red card" Diouf. Those two are just awful, at least Barton doesn't seem to take himself too seriously.
You're dead-right to highlight the disparity in the way the law is administered to supporters - compared to players (and other members of society too). With that as a given, I still don't think the possibility of a leanient 'punishment' should prevent professional footballers being prosecuted for any behaviour on the field of play that might be deemed as illegal. I guess we're all entitled to our opinions though...

Can he fit on a front page? I suppose you could do a pull-out.
Yeah, in a turkish jail.Slap on the wrist. Wonder what would happen if I called a pakistani a Paki? Fine / imprisonment? Hope he gets 6 months in solitary confiment.
What I don't get is that fans can hurl abuse at footballers for 90 minutes without sanction, but once a footballer has a go back, he ends up prosecuted.
I have to say that this prosecution is just pc gone mad over a bit of uneducated banter. He's not actually directly had a go at an individual, he was just having a go back at the crowd for winding him up.

Hope so Grubby as they've not all mod cons over there
And he would claim millions in comparsation due to hurt feelings as it infringed his human rights.
