Was this the chant about hanging from a tree? I thought it was pretty funny to be honest.

According to the radio, the hanging from a tree chant wasn't what they were actually prosecuted for, it was for calling him a "gayboy"
Blimey, they've just criminilized 13 year old boys lock, stock and barrel.

It's the same song, hanging with a tree rhymed with HIV. Can't remember what the full chant was though, I'm sure it's googleable.

From a footie blog... This was the chant, sang to the tune of Lord of the Dance:
“Sol, Sol, wherever you may be
You’re on the verge of lunacy
And we don’t give a fuck if you’re hanging from a tree
You Judas cunt with HIV.”
The other chant which is apparently another fans’ favourite for Campbell is this one:
“He’s big
He’s black
He takes it up the crack
Sol Campbell, Sol Campbell.”
Sol’s brother is currently in prison, serving a 12-month sentence for attacking someone for suggesting that Sol was gay. |

I saw the headline along the lines of "Man tried to get prostitute for his 14 year old son" and thought "Well, that's not a bad swap" |

The chant doesn't seem that bad, you also have to cut them some leeway as its difficult coming with stuff that rhymes and make sense - maybe they had to go with something a bit more offensive than they were planning purely on a musical composition basis.
What pisses me off is that if a fan does something bad they get banned from grounds, yet when a player does something bad they get a slap on the wrist. If a player commits assault (punches, elbows, stamps, kicks) on the pitch against another player they normally get no more than a 3 match ban, if a fan does the same to another fan they'll get a minimum 1 year ban from all football grounds and a criminal record.
Before anyone says that's different - it isn't. If anything its the players that should get the harsher penalty.

Seems bloody harsh punishment for the crime.
Does this mean half the town end will be banned for singing homophobic chants (town full of faggots, we can see you holding hands) at the batty boy fans? Will I get investigated for calling them batty boys on here. Where the fuck is the line drawn?

The line is drawn when you aim your chant at a certain individual...if i was in this group of fucking morons chanting these songs aimed at one individual i wouldnt feel proud and i for one wouldnt have no sympathy at anyone getting nicked for it...get a life and grow up,theres youngsters in the ground listening to this crap...cant believe people are on here defending these lowlife..maybe if you had family who are gay,black or suffering from aids you wouldnt think it so unimportant to a player...its football not war.
The police have to make a stand at certain points and have to draw the line,if it was one of our players taking flak the same as Campbell got i would be a little pissed off to say the least if no action was taken....whats wrong with Tottenham reject etc,its expected and players will expect this..i like to think Batch that you would draw your own line before singing the filth they were.

In real life hundreds of crimes far worse than this go unpunished everyday.
There is nothing wrong with football fans being extreme and rediculous.
Free expression for fans. Whoever it offends.
