It's gone. What was it?

A soldier in blackface with the comment 'being in the army requires a robust sense of humour'

I imagine there's a vacancy for a social media officer if anyone is interested...

That's just not true is it?

He was in camo cover. Mostly green. But hey, it's 2016 - the age of being of offended.

I swear that some people must scour the internet looking for reasons to be offended, that's fucking ridiculous. Instead of issuing apologies over this kind of thing, I'd wish people started responding to the uproar with 'Get a fucking grip. It's camo pain, you narrow-minded muppets'.

What was the reference of sense of humour in relation to?

[Flashheart]

It just looked as though he may be enjoying himself.

But, of course, it couldn't just be a soldier enjoying himself while wearing black* camo point, (which soldiers are prone to do). Oh no, it must be a racist slur. BAN racist camo paint.

*It was actually dark green.

Enjoyment and humour aren't linked, you're being silly.

I'm always hesitant when clicking a link to that forum but I'd find that a little bit amusing regardless of the club involved.

To be fair, it's not all that bad. Certainly not as cringe worthy as some of their other recent efforts.

In a debate group that I am a member of, a new member has joined by the name of Gary Barlow.

All Take That references have so far gone over everybody's head. I think I'm perhaps a bit more amused by it than I should be.

Any relation to Ken?

Its dreadful, but sort of funny/tragic, he sounds like a lovely chap.

And a Swindon mention as well, we were in the league cup 1/4 final draw!

I think I went to the Palace cup game as well. Did we lose 1-0? From memory the keeper threw the ball out to Mickey Hazard who was tackled and Palace scored the only goal.
