So the actions, I mean, compared to Hillsborough, where people lost loved ones.

And it's a direct attack on a city, on a specific set of fans.

Here you're attacking a degenerate monster who happened to be from Leeds.

The implication of the song, as I understand them, I've only heard a couple of the songs, is in that Leeds fans are all a bunch of Jimmy Savills.

I don't believe, right?

I don't know.

I think at some point lines have to be drawn

I don't quite know that this clears that hurdle or that the level of distress that this would cause Leeds fans.

I mean, Leeds fans specifically, not victims of this crime.

Victims of crimes, sadly, are everywhere.

They're all around us.

It's ugly.

I just think that if we are going to go down that route, then we just have to agree, okay,

There's many other things which probably should also be banned and which are also unacceptable because of the language that we use.

And some people are going to say this would change kind of the whole tenure or nature of what it's like to go to a football match.

I'm okay with it.

I do not need to hear crowds hurling abuse at people.

Yeah.

But we have to understand that this is going to be a big cultural shift and it has to be a wider debate, I think, about it.

Yeah, it was direct action by VAR haters.
