[Palace] Oh dear Wayne Hennessey...

[Easy 10]

Obviously there's loads about this that is amusing...


..to the story itself, he's not doing a Nazi salute is he? Thats one hand extended up in font of you with fingers straight and together and is intended to express support of all things Nazi. By contrast he's doing a mock-Hitler salute, with the finger mimicking a tash, which is intended to poke ridicule at Hitler and Nazi's; or people of Nazi persuasion. The worst that can be said is that he was accusing Meyer of being a Nazi.


Oooh I think I need a lie-down now

I honestly don't believe he thought about it that deeply chap.

i am of the same ilk icy, couldn't give a flying fig about shite like this. silly man doing a silly thing. mountains out of mole hills imho.

The trouble is people now love to be outraged, particularly by things that have no impact on them!

Quite frankly I’m outraged that you’re not outraged!!!

I don't think anyone on here is "outraged" by his nazi salute at all. Its just his utterly risible attempt to justify it that has kept him on the agenda. By coming out with that ridiculous claptrap, he's proved that he actually thinks we are all more stupid than he is.

Some might say an FA investigation is overkill. I say it means that it continues to embarrass Palace in the national media for a while yet which means it continues to be hilarious.

His explanation for it should win an award for it's creativeness

Right up there with Corbyn's ' stupid PEOPLE' excuse. Laughable. Just be a man and say 'I was munted, seemed funny at the time, sorry', and leave it at that. Ooops! Too late.

He used the full hand to mimic Hitler’s moustache instead of the index finger. So not only did he do a Nazi salute, he didn’t do it correctly!

This is the textbook method:

Can we now all agree that...when we next play Palace...that we all don comedy Chaplin moustaches and chant “seig heils, seig heils” for real unlike the Met Police claimed we did at Millwall when they misheard “Seagulls” as the old Nazi Favourite greeting?

I’m sure it would be taken as a joke by the media.

Funny you should mention that. I was going to download the "Seagulls" chant ringtone onto my phone but decided against it as it sounds a little bit too much like 'Sieg Heil' to the untrained ear. Just didn't fancy explaining the distinction between the two on a busy tube journey.

The latest is that Hennessy has insisted that the spotty Herberts who used to live in the corner at Selhurst, will now be called The Holmesdale Hitler Youth. As they have already annexed the middle seats in the stand,ala’ Hitler and Czechoslovakia, I can’t see any good coming from this.

Well, except to give us a good laugh,anyway.

Well quite... its more the headline writers I'm taking issue with, he didn't do a Nazi salute, he did a Basil Fawlty impression..

..or, "Palace player points at German photographer, whilst amplifying his voice", obvs

 

[Albion Prem]

You know as well as I do that JEREMY CORBYN is the root of all evil and Diane Abbott (the black woman) is too.

It's outrageous. I'm outraged. It's political correctness gone mad. All of it.

How long before someone blames Churchill for this situation?

 

[Swillis]

I was actually on his side until he gave that pathetic explanation.

 

[Sheebo]

FA now looking into it...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46796546

The embrassment to this is the denial. It's like Jeremy Corbyn's woman/people story but worse.

Just front it up man. Say you made a mistake. Who hasn't done something silly after a drink or two?

Hoping for a points deduction - at least 2010 can’t just do their usual keep quiet and hope it disappears...

 

[lawros left foot]

It makes you wonder who he thought he would be convincing with that explanation. As you say , pathetic but, also quite amusing from our end of things.


BTW , Swillis, is Victor Moses coming to you on loan?

 

[Sheebo]

And when you are shouting and want to amplify your voice, don't you cup your hand around the side of your mouth, not essentially block your mouth with you full hand over it?

So true. Exactly what I was thinking when looking at the pic after reading his pathetic excuse. Liar.

How the **** would I know

Indeed. Storm in a teacup and then......

What a gimp.

Maybe the club got involved and advised him what to say?

If you look at Zaha’s latest tweet then I don’t think the Palace media relations/PR machine are doing their job.

Do you mean the one that's suggesting that God gave him all his nice stuff?
