Despite that article being a terrible piece of journalism, whether he said something or not this is bad press for the club.

it's blatantly obvious amankwaa said something that harris took great offence of.
I wouldn't say anything is obvious with the Millwall players as they were gobbing off at every opportunity, I don't think I've seen a less professional outfit since Wimbledon. Their whole gameplan was about intimidation and it sadly got them a point by using these tactics.

If that was a Millwall 'fan' with that quote, then he would've had supersonic hearing as the incident took place close to the half way line and not 50 yards away where the Millwall 'fans' were.

i was watching harris and amankwaa having verbals.it looked like the usual handbags until harris went mental.it took a while to develop into harris going loopy. straight away i thought "bollocks" when it kicked off.

It seems to be direct quotes from Harris, not from a fan. i was watching harris and amankwaa having verbals.it looked like the usual handbags until harris went mental.it took a while to develop into harris going loopy. straight away i thought "bollocks" when it kicked off.
Was that a deliberate pun?

From the Mirror article it says : A supporter, who watched the game from the stands, revealed: "I was right in front of it and Amankwaah shouted something about having 'one ball' at Harris. I've never seen him react like that." That's what I was getting when I was saying if it was a Millwall 'fan' who heard that as the Mirror doesn't say from which fans the supporter was from.

I know it's a big deal, cancer, but is it really a big deal as in the actual event on the pitch? Who really cares, there isn't a law against it. Materazzi has hardly spent the last couple of years in the footballing wilderness for being a bit tasteless to a world footballing icon. I'm also inclined to think a Vinnie Jones style character would have pretended to miss the missing bollock in a Gazza style grab, then spend the rest of the game swearing in Bollock related swear words only.

I tto fail to see what the bg deal is. Even if true, I don't see what the problem is. I'm sure Amankwaah gets more serious (racial) abuse than that (in particular when playing at Millwall), & doesn't react. I wonder what the world is coming too when things get so PC you can't say anything to anyone without being hung drawn & quartered. Just makes me think that Harris is either a big dirls blouse who can't take a bit of ribbing on a football pitch, or he's a lying bastard who is trying to get a fellow proffesional into trouble. (Like their number 26 did on Douglas).

Personally I think joking about cancer is pretty poor form. Not saying that is what happened though.
Mind you, whilst playing the worst reaction I saw was to a "your dad..." comment. The guy who made it didn't know but the other players dad had died earlier in the week. Duck and cover.
