Hamza will probably get something similar. If that's the case then the FA is even dumber than I thought. Surly there must be some kind of leniency regarding minors.

I don't like this attitude that dubious jokes or comments are more acceptable from certain people than others. And I'm not saying he's racist by the way, he was a 15 year old kid, just that prejudice is more complicated than people sometimes realise.

Not going to put the pictures on here because I'll just be spreading it. Fair enough. Guess kids will be kids as they say.

I’m still in awe of the tackle at Liverpool away. He was absolutely colossal today. I don’t think Brendan has fully realised what a player he is. Hamza's main attribute is the intensity in which he plays, and that must be hard to get across in training. I think Brendan was likely very positively surprised by how he played.

AKCJ Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Absolutely love it when the ball comes loose and you just know someone's about to Hamza is about to attempt to murder someone. Absolutely clattered Torreira today.

Leicester City presents THE love story of the year. One was a local lad, with a hairstyle and swagger that grabbed attention. One was a smooth talking Northern Irishman on the run from angry Scotsmen for daring to dream of more. Together they are... HAMZA AND RODGERS (I had to post this in two threads!)
foxes21 Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 Hamza Choudhury’s first half vs. Arsenal: 100% pass accuracy 3 ball recoveries 2 chances created 2/2 tackles won 1/2 take-ons
HybridFox Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 I really hope we give him proper runs in the first team next season. I know going on loan has been discussed but I genuinely think he makes an active difference to our team. With Barnes now embedded and Benkovic hopefully being integrated next season, this is exciting times!
Lionator Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 What would be the point in punishing him for those tweets? He was 15, he's now 21, he's obviously grown up a lot and wouldn't use that language now as an adult. An absolute waste of time and energy.
H.a.r.r.y Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 He made a few jokes and comments when he was 15, Declan Rice said "Up the RA" and went unpunished - can't see anything coming of this
Foxxed Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 3 hours ago, UniFox21 said: I really think a lot of this is ridiculous. It's 6 years ago. All of what he said isn't okay, but 6 years ago a lot of that was a lot less sensitive. He's 21, 6 years ago he was 15, such a stupid rule. Besides, if the FA goes around finding stupid shit said by 15 year olds in Loughborough then how will they find time to run the association?

Hollyfox Posted 28 April 2019 Posted 28 April 2019 He's got big hair, but we don't care Hamza, Hamza Choudhury Ala Rooster Russell (you've got to be an old git to know that one) ?

The Afro is a bit of a give away.

"Excuse me officer that black man just said something iffy about black people" doesn't really create the same issues as "excuse me officer that white man just said something iffy about black people".
