'Killer Man Utd Fan' Rams Barca Crowd

[Skul]

Here we go. A soccer fan goes and kills supporters of an opposing team because his team lost. Also, this isn't just one inicident, the article also points out two incidents where sports fans have committed suicide when their teams lost. I'm sorry for their families, but that is just pathetic.

A Manchester United fan killed four people in Nigeria when he drove into Barcelona supporters after his team lost the Champions League final, police have said.

A minibus rammed into a crowd, in the town of Ogbo, that was celebrating Barca's victory after the Wednesday night match.

A further 10 people were injured and the driver was arrested, a police spokeswoman said.

"The driver had passed the crowd then made a U-turn and ran into them," she added.

Barcelona beat Manchester United 2-0 in what was hailed as a "dream final" between two of Europe's best clubs.

Both teams have large fan bases in Nigeria, Africa's most populous nation.

Earlier this month, an Arsenal fan in Africa hanged himself when his team lost 3-1 to United in the Champions League Semi Final.

The body of Suleiman Alphonso Omondi, a 29-year-old Kenyan from Nairobi, was found at his home just hours after his heroes slumped out of the competition.

Police confirmed football-mad Mr Omondi was wearing his Arsenal shirt when he took his own life.

In Kenya, English clubs enjoy a passionate following among the locals.

European games, in particular the UEFA Champions League, attract more attention than national and continental fixtures.

Really makes you want to become a sports fan, doesn't it?

Apalling. I don't know how the system works in Manchester, but even sadder still, the residents get to pay taxes to house these sorts of twits in prison.

[Fat Man]

You know, I'm just so disgusted over this whole situation.

To the moron who hung himself when his favorite team lost, I say . . . . .

GOOD FOR HIM!!!

I hope more of these retarded potential Darwin Award Nominees kill themselves!

Good fucking riddance!!!

But as for the drooling moron who drove a vehicle into a crowd of people and killing some of them, these idiots should be shot immediately.

It's so fucking obvious that he did the crime.

When the cops arrived at the scene, he should have been removed from his vehicle, made to lay face down on the pavement, and a gun put to the back of his head, and his shit-for-brains blown out into the asphalt!

No jail, no bail, no trial, just execute these fuckers on the spot!

Then they can say, "sorry, but we can't afford jails and trials for any sports related crimes because all the money went to build the stadiums and pay the athletes."

End of story!

I had wondered how long this woud take to happen after the match. What waste of life over a stupid game, I feel so sorry for the people killed by the bus.

Not to mention, the friends, families, and loved ones of those killed by the bus.

Sports fans and jocks shouldn't even be allowed to have a driver's license in the first place, because they are going to go whacko and use a vehicle as a weapon when they get pissed off over their favorite team losing a game.

All sports fans and jocks should be registered by the state, and not allowed to be issued a driver's license, and if they are caught driving a motor vehicle, they should be pulled over and shot on sight!

End of story!

[Ray]

wow! Now that's MAD. But considering how passionate soccer fans get, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.

[Fat Man]

I think all sports fans and monkey-boys should be castrated and lobotomized!

Then they should have their kneecaps busted with a lead pipe!

Fat Man, you say some pretty hateful things.

[Sergey]

Fat Man, you say some pretty hateful things.

Still fair.

[Polite24]

Hoping innocent people die is fair? Man, I hope that isn't the consensus here. If so, you guys are a deranged bunch.

[Earl]

That is not the consensus here. I have dissented against the hatred twice. (For the record, this would include my admittedly rather brief post above and my longer post on page 1 of the topic "'Hand pulled off' in tug-of-war.")

Earl, you shouldn't have to defend yourself, he's playing stupid to get attention, he should know that's not the consensus here. I certainly do not condone it, but considering the source...

Nobody fall into this childish manipulative nonsense.

And Polite, maybe you should find something better to do with your time than (no offense, fatman) attack an elderly person with emotional issues that stem from abuse. The fact that you continue to do so is one of the reasons why I don't let up on you, and why I think in reality you are an insensitive prick, in spite of your 'I understand' and 'I sympathize' posts.

[Polite24]

I'm not trying to attack Fat Man in anyway.

I'm not offended.

I don't consider myself elderly yet since I'm only 57, so I'm middle aged, but I am disabled.

Now in two more years I'll be 60, then I'll be a Senior Citizen, and be able to get a discount on a cup of coffee at a Jack In The Box.

But I won't be allowed to sit on a bench to wait for a bus.

Oh yeah! Innocent people!

Like the "innocent" Manchester United fan who killed four people in Nigeria when he drove into a crowd of Barcelona supporters after his team lost the Champions League final.

Now if the other team had lost, somebody from the other side would have done the same thing, so neither side is innocent.

Both sides are equally able to kill. Yeah! Ready, willing, and able!

So, don't give me this innocence bullshit.

Also, most sports fans, about 99% percent of them, are redneck wife-beaters who can't even keep their pants from falling half-way down on their butts!
