A warning and a small fine would be fair enough. I get people thinking it’s stupid to charge him, but hopefully it can act as a lesson to others

Fucking hell that's ridiculous. Getting banned from the stadium is understandable. Getting fucking charged? What a joke

I mean the kid is a disrespectful little cunt, sure.

But charging him is fucking bonkers

This country is fucked

Look super bad taste obviously but what the fuck?

Audio of Andrew tate admitting to sexual assault: I sleep

SoccerFootball is a religion. And this was blasphemy. Praise Alan! Shearer

What happens when we sing "maggies in the mud" then.

I assume this is just for an FBO, not sure why people are losing their minds over it.

fairly sure Sir Bobby himself wouldn’t want a 17 year old dragged through the court system for this

The guy’s an insensitive idiot, but how is this a crime?

All the Americans with English flairs coming out in droves to talk about how free their country is is hilarious.

I agree with the club banning him from the stadium but the police charging him seems pretty ridiculous

Glad the comments also agree this is ridiculous, he deserves to be banned from coming to games, but charging him is too much of an overreaction. Teenagers say dumb shit

I never understood people who take sports to this extreme. I’m a Manchester United fan but I would never wish harm upon the guys from City. I just want United to win. With any sport I like, if a player from the other team is hurt, my first thought is that I hope they’re ok.

chants are classless and he should be banned for a few games, but charged? that’s bullshit

Holy shit, you still do this back in the old world?

Someone should record a mob singing, "your Mummy's in a box" for this lad, then superglue bluetooth speakers into his ears at the funeral home when his passes. Show the little cunt what it's like.

Can't get my head around how this became a Police matter lmao

Kid needs a bit of a kicking, but charges?!

Being banned from the stadium is correct.

I don't like to see the Government getting involved in this tho.

authoritarianism is on the rise I see

UK moment.

Name and shame when?

Making fun of a dead person from your rival club is fucked up, but it's not prison worthy. A ban from the stadiums fits.

The UK is absolutely fucked.

the dystopia is already here

You can legally charge someone for singing insults? Especially a kid?

What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?

Thank god for 1776

That’s pretty harsh, what’s going on in the UK?

Bit of an overreaction, isn't it?

Charged? Ridiculous

What a fucking horrible precedent to set. Utterly baffling. In no way shape or form do I condone the chanting of someone who’s dead, but my God this makes virtually no sense. Same people who probably gobble the nuts of the royal family that want to protect the legacy of a man who died of natural causes and make the life of a 17 year old miserable just to prove a point. Outrageous and insufferable.

V for Vendetta coming to real near you soon.

Welcome to the beginning of the end lads. Next year we wont be allowed to chant about posh spice taking up the arse for fear of slander

Absurd you can get into jail for words. Im sure the government will never abuse this power.
