Why did Muntari do that though? Do we know if it's because he was taken off?

QUOTE (Danny @ Jan 12 2015, 05:01 PM) I don't care if he was called a monkey, c**n and vile black dog, as disgusting those terms are there's no excuse for throwing projectiles around his own dugout, potentially hurting/injuring his own team. Look at how Boateng reacted, Balotelli? Muntari's response was dreadful. He's a disgrace.
And he's been fined anyway, no ban. Well Boateng refused to continue playing when he was racially abused, that was much more drastic action than this. As for your saying that he could have hurt someone, clearly he didn't aim for anyone and he threw the bottle and the jacket in different directions so he wouldn't hit anyone. I think you're being too harsh on him, it's ok for him to be fined 'cos he deserved it, but we have had much more dangerous incidents with our players yet they weren't banned. As far as I'm concerned he is still a Milan player and his rage had nothing to do with our club, nor he humiliated us in any way.

I've been far more forgiving of Muntari in recent years than many, but this season he's really done my head in.

He should be ashamed of himself. He gives zero effort when he plays, and gets batshit crazy when he gets subbed. Hypocrite, much?

QUOTE (d'Arc.LP @ Jan 12 2015, 02:48 PM) Oh so it only matters what others think ? You're the one who raised alternative examples, not me. And at no point did I even imply my feelings one or the other about what others think. QUOTE That's very low 'cos you can't have double standars on the very same issue. I think calling my opinion on this as 'low' is slightly over the top, don't you think? QUOTE You either tollerate (or even praise) players for reacting on racists chants or you fine them. Well it entirely depends on the reaction in question. For example, if you wish to further expand the Boateng example, and clearly you do, he kicked the ball at the racists and the whole team walked off. Not just him, but the whole team. Unfortunately Muntari reacted TO A SUBSTUTION by throwing objects at his team mates. You are the only one who claims this had anything to do with racism. So the examples couldn't be more different. QUOTE So Boateng was a better player he could have done whatever he wanted ? Boateng was utterly rubbish for us by the point he did that, but it has absolutely no bearing on judging what he did in response to racism. QUOTE This makes me think that some people don't give a crap about players personality. If Bonera was black and he reacted same way as Boateng did, would he be praised "globally" ? Yes. QUOTE I strongly doubt it. And it's wrong 'cos racism doesn't aim for the level of player but it aims for the color of their skin. I...know this? tbh I'm really not sure what I've done to upset you so much!

Dst raised a valuable question. Before making final judgements and exclusive statements we have to be at least well informed, or we end up spitting out paroles.
