Don't worry Atila, just a release valve for all that built up tension before the Man U v 'pool game coming up, you wouldn't understand what with L'Arse v Spuds not being a proper derby...;-) For all you serious debaters out there... When Man U played West Ham recently, everytime Berbatov got the ball or came near to the touchline he was greeted with chants of 'Yiddo' from the West Ham fans, Yid I believe being a derogative term used to describe a Jew. This wasn't a one-off, and is frequently heard at Chelsea games too, even if an ex-Spurs player is not involved e.g. 'Stand up if you hate Yiddos' etc, and to a lesser extent at Arsenal games. I know that the Spurs 'casuals' of the 70's and 80's adopted the moniker of 'Yid Army', maybe as a way of 'reclaiming' the word, a bit like gangster rappers with the 'n' word, but this shouldn't excuse the use of this term. Quite rightly the FA have backed campaigns to clamp down on racist abuse, but this appears to only address the issue of abuse aimed at black players. Can you imagine the uproar now if organised racist chanting was aimed at a black player, witness the reaction to the abuse of black England players in Spain. Apart from the odd article in the Guradian/Independant the press haven't picked up on this, TV commentators suddenly lose their voices, clearing their throats instead, it's just like being back in the 80's. When will the FA grow a backbone and do something about the anti-semitic chanting aimed at Spurs or ex-Spurs players?
