I hope not. I hope the club kick the allegedly xenophobic little prick out of the club. Hopefully the allegedly racist member of teh NF will be out of football for good. Pathetic piece of allegedly white supremacist shite.

2 weeks fine is the maximum under the PL and PFA rules, but they have probably been fined for more than one offence, which then probably can be accumulated. I'm sure they have made sure they've done this in a legal correct manner.

He's also got 2 disrepute charges to face now and could be banned for up to 6 games.

The question other clubs must be asking themselves now is

"Is it worth improving our squad on the cheap by signing an allegedly racist, cowardly, violent, common fucking criminal? Who if said allegations are correct will no doubt lower morale, and potentially bring the club into disrepute by attacking members of the community when he's with his mates"

Or summat to that affect...

Why do they have to be racists because the victim happened to be an Asian bloke? Do you think it wouldn't have happened if he was white?

You and a number of others have implied it was a racist attack.

Who if said allegations are correct will no doubt increase the competition for places in the team, therefore inspiring players around him to perform better in order to keep their place in the team."

No

I've heard allegations that the attack may have been racially motivated, and that Bowyer has a history of such incidents...

I've merely put forward these allegations for discussion...

I've never met Bowyer so have no idea what he's like..

He may be a nice bloke...or a racist little thug?

I simply don't know.....

How about because he beat the shit out of an asian in a McDonalds restaurant a few years ago? You know the club are now being sued for conspiring to pervert the course of justice (covering up), and their solicitor too. Here's another quote from today's paper "A judge ruled Bowyer's statements to police were 'littered with lies'" He got off due to insufficient evidence. He's also possibly going to be charged with
2 counts of misconduct by the FA with possible 6 match ban. This twat isn't worth much because of all this baggage.

Is that the same paper that is saying Beckham's going to Italy, Keane is going to Celtic, United are in a crisis, Liverpool play attacking football? <img src="graemlins/houllier.gif" border="0" alt="[Houllier]" />

He also got banned for smoking puff while at Charlton but that doesn't mean he's a druggy.

He was found innocent........

So if I get in a fight and beat up a black or an Asian, I am therefor a racist.

It pisses me off that everytime the victim is not white, people claim it's racially motivated.

Details of another racially motivated attack(that Bowyer was involved in) were not submitted as evidence in the trial for fear it would unduly influence the jury.

Is it just me or is there a pattern here?

How about when it happens twice? Oh and btw Sarfraz Najeib's solicitor, who played a key role in the Stephen Lawrence case, also said a High Court prosecution would also bring evidence of a racial motive in the attack. So we should at least be able to agree that the victim in the case thought it was a racist attack.

To be honest, I couldn't give a toss who thinks it was a racist attack or not. The fact that Najeeeb punched one of Woodgates mates to start the whole thing off pretty much says it all.

As a Leeds fan however, the fact that Bowyer is listed is fucking devastating news and just about ends any hope of us winning anything. Since he got injured a few weeks ago, the team have performed badly and can't string 2 results together.

IF he leaves, someone will get a diamond for their millions.

From BBC:
Leeds United Supporters' Club chief Ray Fell backed the club's decision to place Bowyer on the transfer list.

"I am totally surprised by the news, as all fans of the club will be, but our main concern is what happens to the club," said Fell.

"Lee Bowyer has been a highly influential player for us, but the fans feel that the club must always come first."

If he eats humble pie and accepts his punishment all will be forgiven.

What was the racial motive?

As far as I see it was two groups of lads that starting having a go at each other. That can happen no matter what the ethnic background of the individuals are. Happens everytime people are out getting lagered!

At the end of the day, why should they be fined? They already owe Leeds about 1 million quid each for legal fees.

I'm not getting involved in this old bollocks. I saw the other threads where it was the couple of leeds fans saying well that's the end of that, the lads are not guilty blah blah, and all the scousers and scum who were baying for their dismissal.

This was about bowyer being listed, which is a total bastard in terms of the football ambitions of leeds

No, any attack is bad, be it racially motivated or not. What gets to me is that everytime the victim is asian, it is always claimed to be a racist attack.....
