So PSG aren't happy that the former Manchester United player was celebrating Manchester United winning a game?

Something like that, and only because he's a former player and not a current player. Like there is a line to draw somewhere, you know, when you want to celebrate a victory in an away stadium. Laughable, really.
Evra for club ambassador 
PSG being treated like the joke they are. There is absolutely NOTHING arabs hate more than being ridiculed. I mean absolutely nothing. Evra will need to get some serious security on himself from here on out

"Paris-Saint Germain firmly condemns the homophobic slurs uttered by Patrice Evra against the club, its representatives and its former player (Jérôme Rothen). The words have shocked the heart of this club, which is attached to values of respect and being open with one another.”Tweet

Legal action
That's a bit rich considering the human rights violations, including against LGBTQ people, of their owners
What a small time club. Embarrassing.
Technically, it is not illegal in their home countryThat's a bit rich considering the human rights violations, including against LGBTQ people, of their owners
This his how it feels to be Paris
This is how it feels to be small
This is how it feels to be irrelevant in Europe
Over in Manchester we're having a ball!
They can't be for real
Enough, we should probably just let them play Barca in our place... so as not to offend them.
What is the penalty in France for that kind of homophobic abuse?
Really shitty of him to use that word.
I love Patice so much.
PSG have spent untold amounts of time talking about how special they are because they have an exclusive deal to put a basketball brand on their kits. Small club, small club mentality.
Maybe it bothers them that Evra has won more significant trophies than their entire club.

Ok I'll be that guy. Why the hell is Evra throwing around homophobic slurs? Club legend or not, I can't stand behind that.
I very much doubt he actually meant they are homosexuals and in some way worse people. The world is improving vastly when it comes to using words with harmful connotations but they won't just disappear overnight.
He obviously meant it as an insult.

Wasn't the next sentence literally, "Manchester United as "the (real) men""? That kinda implies that it was infact derogatory or atleast used in that sense IMO.
The United players are clearly more manly than their PSG counterparts. Why should Paddy Evra get in trouble for saying what we are all thinking?
is that the same word that caused Aurier trouble when he used it against Blanc (when he played at PSG)? didn't some caf members say it's often used as an equivalent to the colloquial "pussies"?
i think i remember reading that here

Not on social media myself, can't be bothered , but well done Patrice, legend.
all this because he dared to celebrate a winning goal of his former club.
psg get a grip and take your L gracefully.

Aurier was using it the a rant about a manager sucking Zlatan's dick and balls. Bit of a stretch to say there was no homophobic intentions there!
Evra didn't use the same terms.
Faggot doesn't mean gays anymore, it means annoying people.
Yes, he did.
He didn't say faggot, he used a term that only means homosexual. Which is weird from a context standpoint.
Unbelievable what these SJWs have brought the world to.
Probably less than the penalty for being homosexual in Qatar. I wonder how PSG feel about that.
I'll have to take your word for it, JP. I was basing it on the tweet below....
If you grow up in a working class area that word essentially means coward or someone with little character. It has nothing to do with homosexuality, now the route of why that word is used in that context is because people used to view homosexuals as less masculine etc and that history is why it is harmful but no one is perfect, especially when they are angry. I think it is best to just put it down to the fact that we are still evolving in how we interact with each other and not call a man homophobic when he clearly doesn't believe the PSG players are attracted to other men and as such that could not be any part of the reason he isn't fond of them.
Well, it's still pretty stupid to haul him over the coals for it. Looks like PSG are hiding behind the "homophobic" excuse to get even with him for supporting United over them.
I am not sure if I am the only one who feels a little uneasy with moral posturing regarding gay rights from a club owned by a state that inflict a 7 year prison sentence on homosexuals.
