Mark_w Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 If true, should be sacked as per the previous trio. Danny Simpson has amazingly avoided punishment so I imagine Jamie would as well, it's easy to sack academy players who are never going to make it. Desperately hope it's not true, and whereas there was video evidence of the incident in Thailand, none has been produced here. I'll never just take the Sun's word for it, but he's an absolute moron if it is true.
Benguin Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 I wipe my arse with the sun. Untill a reputable source publishes it, Vardy is still my future kids name
GingerrrFox Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 If people class paki as a racist term then Jap is also the same. He said it to have negative connotations. It will be interesting now it's one of our best players how many hypocrites attempt to write this off as nothing.
Wymsey Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 The Sun made it quite convenient in releasing this detail after a very recent last game, haven't they? T***s.
RedSoxUK Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Yeah I reckon he was misheard to be honest haha. I have no reason to believe Vardy is 'a racist' and will continue backing him so please lets not get on his back now it's the last thing he'll want as he enters a form period... Even so, there's no chance the club / FA will fine him for calling someone a 'Jap'. If anything it's a case of intolerance because it's a preference word the Japanese just don't like to be called. To me, the word Jap can be interpreted differently, if it's used derogatory in lowering someone's ethnicity sure, it's bad. In Vardy's case, that's still no offence or derogation - yo jap, walk on.. nothing wrong with it IMHO. There's far more derogatory statements and offensive terms to the Japanese heard in the bleachers when Asian players are on the pitch.
BlueSi13 Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Sorry but I don't see Jap as a racist term. Not the best source but it really is regarded as a racial slur mate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jap Plus if it's true he was using it as a stick to beat the man he was arguing with.
Jam Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 The Sun made it quite convenient in releasing this detail after last game, haven't they? T***s. Tbf the sun on sunday always have the 'exposé' and scandals. So I don't think it's completely because of the last game. But yeah timing is a shitt*r
The Horse's Mouth Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Don't make excuses trying to claim "jap" isn't a racist term. However, no evidence has been presented, this alleged video hasn't been released and all we have is word from mouth
Sunbury Fox Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 This is so depressing. Hope there is no truth in this.
Munshi Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Guy who wrote this is just a West ham fan shitting it at the thought of James Collins coming up against Vardy next week.
OriginalRobboFOX Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Did he say Jap or Chap? Clutching at racial straws here....
lcfcdamo Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 What a sack of shit so what if he said jap how can that be racist its just a shorter way of saying Japanese wot a world we live in everything is fort of has racist! pathetic and any 1 saying he is out of order or to sack him get a grip
Riot Van Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 You can argue that Jap isn't a racist term all you like but with the suggested context of the situation he is using the word Jap to insult the man. The fact is, Japanese people ARE offended by this. I have two Japanese friends both of which find it offensive and it originates from a genuine hate of Japanese people. Using Aussie as a likeness for example is irrelevant.
GingerrrFox Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 So are we saying calling someone a paki isn't racist then?
Brooksy Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 What a sack of shit so what if he said jap how can that be racist its just a shorter way of saying Japanese wot a world we live in everything is fort of has racist! pathetic and any 1 saying he is out of order or to sack him get a grip
BlueSi13 Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 You can argue that Jap isn't a racist term all you like but with the suggested context of the situation he is using the word Jap to insult the man. It would be even worse if the man wasn't even Japanese.
Larry_LCFC Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 You can argue that Jap isn't a racist term all you like but with the suggested context of the situation he is using the word Jap to insult the man.This I'm afraid. Jap on it's own isn't racist but using it in the context he has leads me to believe that was his intention. Call him mate, pricck , twat. Anything but Jap. FFS vardy you tit
lcfcdamo Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Well how come calling someone a brit aint racist then after all its the same thing
cjslcfc Posted 8 August 2015 Posted 8 August 2015 Let's just hope that Vardy uses the word 'chap' a lot. Otherwise, there's not much you can defend there at all (if said video evidence does surface and it's not a shitstorm out of nothing).
