It’s worse than not saying sorry for being insensitive, it’s like laughing in the faces of the annoyed, designed to provoke.
I’m not entertained by how a football club I have a love for, is being shredded in every which way by a cold, stupid, egoist.

Where was the quick, whoops apology to slap the fire out? B***** is toast in management, probably doing all this burning because he now knows that. But Wael is completely shredding himself this week. The do nothing way this was handled makes no sense. There’s something uncanny here.

Joe did not say'the Holocaust'. He said "holocaust".
Not pretty English,perhaps insensitive but to threaten someones job over it ,is ridiculous,spiteful,puerile and silly woke.
For those that seek to stop people saying what they want,to cancell certain words and to control people well hard luck.
Just because you're offended,does'nt mean you're right.

Okay, Basel. So how bad was that performance. Clearly 'horror show' was not strong enough a phrase to describe it. If it was as bad as B***** makes out, why is he still here!
Oh, and just because you're not offended doesn't mean you are right either. Cuts both ways.

Which makes it nonsensical. I too do not think he did it deliberately. He is just a little bit thick and uses words that he does not know the meaning of.

And too thick to quickly apologise and save all the click bait he refers to. Thick as, ignorant as, should not be here!

An inability to even recognise, lack the self awareness that he is wrong, displays a deeper psychological fault, in my opinion. I would go with a deep seated inferiority complex.

I don't use the word to describe someone or something as bad,but apparently some people do. So he knew what he was saying and what it meant,or has apparently come to mean. English language development,happening everyday,all around us. You can get some people that have a wonderful command of our language,but are not necessarily very good at other stuff. Others eg Brian Clough,was no intellectual, but a genius when it came to our game. "There ain't alf been some clever b'stards" could perhaps be used here.

So, when would you use it? To describe what the Nazi did to Jews and others in WWII.

So you'd say B***** does not necessarily have a wonderful command of our language. I'd agree with that, much as he'd like to blind us to it with his verbal diarrhoea.
Now tell me what you believe he is very good at. I'm struggling to see anything that balances out his imperfections.

I know you think he will. But what are you basing that on. I can't get to games these days, can't even listen to commentaries. So all I can go on is press reports and opinions on here. You seem to very distinctly be in a minority who thinks B***** will come good. Is that based on any actual evidence, or just optimism and a desperate hope that things will turn round.

You also appear to accept that word has pretty repulsive connotations for millions of people, by referencing the very precise event which was repulsive. So how can you defend him? Either he is devoid of empathy by using the word so badly out of context or, more likely, he is thick and doesn't understand the true meaning of the word. Take your pick.

This guy brings a whole new meaning to "Blind Faith" Don't you Basel?
