What a dick. The fans didn't take to kindly to it either. Unless it was the dog they were calling a son of a bitch.

 

[Razzoo]

A total ****. At least the pooch looked unharmed or too bothered.

 

[Safeway]

Shocking, disgraceful, appalling.

Have they not heard of lawn mowers?

Sadly this is how some countries and people regard animals. It is clear he was trying to throw it over the fence but did not have the strength to do it. It sickens me but I have seen too much animal cruelty and am desensitised to a certain extent now.

I think it was brave to pick the dog up, he held it by the throat so it could not bite him and makes sense as stray dogs do have rabies in south america. His choice of throwing it leaves a little to be desired, he was clearly not thinking and wanted to get on with the game, there seems to fences all the way round the pitch to stop hooligans even at what appears a low level game. I may get shot down for these comments.

Trying to hurl it over a 12 foot fence possibly killing or seriously injuring it was brave ? It don't think it was some sort of heroic act for his fellow players, it was because the Dog was a nuisance and he wanted to get on with the game. Strange World we live in now.

Looks like some sort of park game!

To be fair I'm sure he was trying to thow it into the crowd, not at the fence. I think he just misjudged it a bit

Uncle I know you dont like me and look for everything I post and try to see the bad in everything, but where did I say he was brave for trying to throw it over the fence.

I said "His choice of throwing it leaves a little to be desired" which was being sarcastic.

What I did say was "it was brave to pick the dog up, he held it by the throat so it could not bite him and makes sense as stray dogs do have rabies in south america" which I think it was. We can agree to disagree on that bit.

No way in my post do I condone his choice of actions for attemting to throw the dog over the fence it was very ill judged and I like very decent human being I am like you against animal cruelty, so please dont suggest I am that is all I ask.

Ok, then.

It's only a DOG. Who gives a F@CK?

Its obvious there wasn't anything malicious in it, however, it's a 12 ft fence, and it would take a lot to launch anything over it, let alone an animal, why not usher the dog to an exit? Guy got what he deserved

Fair enough. I do think a lot of humanity do not give a toss about other creatures and to a lot of people it will be " what's the fuss ? " Still my point of view, others are free to have theirs.

If that fence is twelve feet tall then the average spectator must stand at least 10ft tall. The story is unpleasant enough without the need for exaggeration to make it appear even worse.

Absolute scum - hope he gets shit thrown at him at every ground he plays in from now on.

Dog shit.

[brightonmark1234]

i would of punch him and i feel sorry for the dog

 

[Mackenzie]

Rubbish throwing....he should have used a hammer throwers spin, spin, spin and release technique. The dog would have cleared the fence easily. Unless its head fell off.


What?

It is probably about 8 feet. You are right.
