Rod Liddle

[wokinghamred]

Good to see Rod Liddle, the left wing intelligentsia, waxing lyrical in the Sunday Times.

"Of the four competing teams, Swindon were the bookies least favourites to go up. And yet, there they are, the yokels, scarcely the throw of a turnip away from the Championship. I wonder if, at Wembley this week, their supporters will be waving foam hands possessed of six fingers?"

Give Rod my regards, if you bump into him at Wembley. Twat.

[quigzy]

I thought that was quite funny.

Also, Rod Liddle, Left wing?! Are you having a laugh?

[Peter Venkman]

He is a well known Millwall fan and a total twat and racist.

He is further right than Nick Griffin!

Funny too, he lives in deepest Wiltshire near Warminster.

[reeves4england]

I know nothing about the guy. But he studied at the LSE and therefore must be a twat.

Fine by me. Pin it on the dressing room wall Danny and when we win, we can all sing "Liddle, what's the score?" Tosser

He's a total twat and racist, but hes a member of the socialist workers party - or he was

Liddle panders to the worst excesses on one of the Millwall forums,trying to play a man of the people.After the Amankwaah/Harris spat, he described Manky on said forum as a "spear chucker".

Can you really see Murdoch employing him as a Times columnist, if he was or is a paid up SWP member? To think that Liddle was a one time editor of Radio 4's Today programme.

I've been reading a few of the Millwall forums today. To say they're very confident of smashing us (on the pitch!) would be an understatement.

This is brilliant.  We're in the Play Off Final and still being underestimated.  We've been flying under the radar all season and it has suited us very well.  I'm sure Cardiff fans were equally confident 48 hours ago.

Millwall fans would do well to remember that they beat us only very narrowly two weeks ago (with home advantage).  But they won't.  If their players are similarly complacent, they will be doing our work for us.

(Rod Liddle, by the way, is a confused man.  Political chameleon.)

Liddle really doesn't like us very much. He wrote this piece in the Guardian back in 2002 comparing Swindon Town to the Tories... he really is a wanker. http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2002/oct/09/conservatives2002.conservatives4

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

It's amazing. We could win the freakin' Champions League and we'd still be a 'tin pot' club to many.

Suits us down to the ground though really

He has a short memory as he tipped us as an outsider for promotion at the start of the season.

By the way Rod, what's Millwall's play-off record like?

The table that 4-4-2 predicted at the start of the season was complete shite!

[pauld]

He's a professional controversialist, so he'll say whatever he thinks will get a reaction, like most of the nobends on talkSport. It's money for old rope, morons have been making money out of "saying something shocking" since the Sex Pistols. These days it's usually moron football pundits or "The column that tells it straight" dickheads like Littlejohn. The only slightly novel thing about the rather well named Rod Liddle is that he combines football with the "I'm not scared to tell the truth, whatever the PC brigade say" stuff. It's about as intellectually taxing as diorrhea churning that shit out. He reminds me a lot of Gary Bushell, another middle-class wannabe who soooooo desperately wanted to be working class, or just accepted as one of the lads. He was a laughable cunt too. And like Bushell with the Oi! scene, he's pitiable - all the lads he so desperately wants to be part of think he's a pathetic wannabe and laugh at his posturings, as should we

Rod Liddle has been attacked for comments he posted on a Millwall supporters website under the moniker Monkeymfc. This is what he is quoted as saying and his response:

What "Monkeymfc" wrote about black people: "On average a little under 10 per cent thicker than whites; 15 per cent thicker than east Asians. I thought everyone knew, too." What Liddle says: "Someone's hacked in [using Liddle's password].

Monkeymfc on Swindon's black footballer Kevin Amankwaah: "**** off you spearchucking African ****." What Liddle says: "I was quoting what had been allegedly said to a black player from another team and JUSTIFYING why that player then said something very nasty indeed in return."

Monkeymfc on blogger Jo Owen. He wrongly assumes he is a woman: "Stupid bitch. A year eight sociology lecture from someone who knows fck all … Someone kick her in the cnt". Liddle [in reply to a blogger]: "I don't remember saying it and it certainly doesn't read like me, but it's quite possible that at some point I might use that terminology to make a certain point, perhaps the opposite to the one you imagine."
