Sarto Mutiny Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 I've listened to the clip around 20 times and it could be either word. I honestly can't tell which one it is.My gut feeling was the racist word rather than "fat", but it's not obvious. If it was racist, I hope they find the person who did it and ban them for life. Whoever they support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us are used to a setup with about 8 mics dotted round the ground, but as mentioned above by the DABs, their AV setup is pish. Not sure who the comment would have been aimed at, there is some chat that its Watt................which, if he is deemed a fat b*****d, doesnt give the rest of us much hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibs fans were shouting ‘fat b*****d’ at Watt throughout the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of poetic licence from me - but you did call him a cheat, and the only incident of note he was involved in was where Edwards elbowed him in the puss. Perhaps you can enlighten me? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you can enlighten me? It could be a wind up from me, though I’m not known for winding people up. It could be a general observation about Porteous. It need not relate to last night’s game at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alert Mongoose Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Yeah it was most of the evening that fat chant. Obviously they are not in the grand scheme of society but I can't help but feel both Watt and Middleton could do with shifting a couple of pounds to perform to their optimum. Could just be their bodyshape though I suppose Edited October 12, 2022 by Alert Mongoose 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listened to the clip another few times and honestly can't tell which of the two possible words is being used. I have difficulty in believing anyone who says that they can definitely make out what is being shouted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 If the shout was coming from the other side of the ground what is the likelihood of it being aimed at the boy in the clip? It may be we have the wrong victim, I don’t know the racial make up of the rest of the players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly shameless. Can't imagine how angry you are now it's been established it was Hibs fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
