A few years back there was a ‘best of Oti’ thread and it was magnificent. Someone really should resurrect it. Hopefully we’ll see a good few more ‘Oti-isms’ added to it yet.
All the best, champ.

To manage it just once would be an achievement Oti Rooting for you I was given a 5% chance of 5 year survival six years ago. Been told by two top professors that and am a bit of a miracle....or was it oddity? Got told 6 months to live in January...nearly there. Latest is three months....i will start to worry when they say 8pm Currently got 22 tumours in the liver, several in the mesenteric organ, some lymph glands, a partially punctured and fibrotic lung, nerve damage from radiotherpay and a toenail digging right in. Anyone for tennis? Keep proving them wrong pal. Let's get a load together and have that away day

I'm surprised Oti hasn't got the Balinese Goddess of Plenty personally overseeing his treatment 😁
Keep going pal. You have everyone's support.

I think its a bit pointless when several clubs in the Championship have stopped doing it. Surely its better if all the EFL clubs came up with something more universal that every club was on board with.

Out of all the points in the article you bring this up, deary me. Few certain posters incoming... Wouldn't say I agree with it but I'm not going to boo if our players decide to do it, that 5 second kneel makes no difference to my life.

I also don't agree with and it also makes no difference to me and I'll just offer it the quiet respect that I do for all the other things I often don't agree should be happening around a football match. Just flagging it up because quite a few posters had expressed it would be a factor in whether they renewed or not etc. Helpful for it to be out there as a clear message now so the moaners can stay away, rather than being caught out in a round of "we're not still doing this crap are we?" moans.

Poor analogy, Oti - it's about a relatively mild, symbolic, awareness campaign - not Nazi bullying!

Poor analogy, Oti - it's about a relatively mild, symbolic, awareness campaign - not Nazi bullying! No i disagree....its virtue signalling of the worst kind. Why dont coppers do it before they go on shift? BLM are a horrible and divisive group with a political agenda. Why dont we kneel for the homeless, the starving, the greater-crested newt? Its the worst kind of bollocks, faux bollocks, foisted on you bollocks, peer pressure bollocks. I hate it and will BOO loudly and i have never once made a monkey chant or jusged a balck footballer for his colour...only his haircut.

Oti is right it's divisive and totally political. Someone at the club needs some balls to stop this, it will only create animosity. Can we please go to games without being politicised. Goodnight utft

Virtue signalling of the worst kind is pillocks like Jacob Rees-Mogg contemptuously pretending to fall asleep in the face of the opposition in parliament - a very punchable offence in my book (I'm sorry to say)- or the whole scumbag, lying tory cabinet for that matter who got behind their pathetic excuse of a "prime" minister to help him achieve his "we've got Brexit done" boast. One of them he even called a "useless bastard" (the Health Minister), proving what a fuckwit was in charge of the pandemic. They'll probably never be quite Nazis, but this lot are as close as a GB government has ever been to a government who you just know would gladly apply repression of the press, BBC etc in their desired agenda. I hate them. Wasn't it Boris Johnson who was proven to have discussed the beating up of a journalist who didn't get on with a thuggish friend of his? Scumbags of the worst kind. BLM is a matter of opinion, and certainly nothing that would be harmful to society if not removed therefrom, unlike Boris Johnson, the scumbag twat and his shitty cabinet. Rant over! Edit: not looking for points here, would be pointless. Boris Johnson and his band of merry pissers have got huge following in the UK. Viel Glück!!

We were not even discussing the government Must admit, worst load of twats in my lifetime mirrored by the even more hopeless and frankly pitiful Labour bunch. Rayner, Nandy, Ashworth. Embarrassing. And this silly woman.

Good on them. Anyone who boos them can fuck off. I won't boo, most won't, yet most IMO reckon it's time to pack it in now Won't boo... neither will I judge those that do, I won't clap.... neither will I judge those that do. My protest will be silence, bringing attention to racism on social media is like laughing at the class clown, it just makes them do it more. Taking a knee fuels racism, just like positive discrimination has, the theory is great, but they are looking at it from the victims viewpoint rather than the offenders. Taking the knee is creating racists not educating them. But 99.9% of those booing are doing so because of the politicisation of football. Nothing to do with black or white.
