Precisely. I don't get why that is so hard for some people to understand?Whenever someone is called a dog eater, it's never with nice intentions to say the very least

Does the chant actually do that? We say its better that a banquet of rats in Liverpool.Displaying an aversion to something from another culture
It's not hard to understand. It's also not racist.Precisely. I don't get why that is so hard for some people to understand?
Park, Park wherever you may be,Kimchi maybe?
It kinda does when it says 'it could be worse, you could be... eating rats' which suggests to me it doesn't appreciate the act of dog eating, hence being something like an aversion.Does the chant actually do that? We say its better that a banquet of rats in Liverpool.
We've done it, bud. We've made a difference. It was mostly you, but I feel we should split the credit 60/40 in my favour.Park, Park wherever you may be,
In your country you eat kimchi,
Could be worse, could be Scouse,
Eating rats in your council house.
Sanitised, job done!
I think we need to find out whether rat actually tastes worse than dog. To prevent any further issues.It kinda does when it says 'it could be worse, you could be... eating rats' which suggests to me it doesn't appreciate the act of dog eating, hence being something like an aversion.
However it's also a bit weird because the practice is seemingly looked down on in Korean society and there's an attempt to get it banned by law...
I guess the biggest problem is that it's accusing Park himself of eating dogs whenever he goes back home, which we don't know for sureif he ever has (did anybody stop to ask the man?!)
Personally I'd say Korea is a bit ashamed of the practice and this is a non-culturally nice reminder, hence why he wants it stopped, which I think is fair enough.
That’s not true, there were plenty of black people on this forum alone who didn’t like it.It’s funny how for The lukaku one none black people were the first to take offence
No credit coming my way? Gotta say I'm hurt guys.We've done it, bud. We've made a difference. It was mostly you, but I feel we should split the credit 60/40 in my favour.
They ate rat burgers in Demolition Man. Sly seemed impressed.I think we need to find out whether rat actually tastes worse than dog. To prevent any further issues.
The ones for whom the stereotype unfortunately didn't ring true?That’s not true, there were plenty of black people on this forum alone who didn’t like it.
You're kinda right. It's a terrible chantThere's a long list of reasons for why the chant sucks:
Racism:
Reducing an Asian culture into a bunch of dog-eaters, even though it's pretty niche. It's especially bad when you know that eating dogs is frowned upon, so it also comes off as an insult, regardless of your intentions.
Hypocrisy:
The notion that eating dogs somehow is especially disgusting, even though pigs are more intelligent and make great pets as well. I doubt the average football fan gleefully singing this chant don't eat pork.
Classism:
Why rip on council houses? Just why?
The chant doesn't even honor Park:
The chant is mainly mocking Liverpool. As a player chant it's essentially useless.
TLDR; the chant can feck right off.
Never see rat being eaten in a Bush tucker trial either. Maybe we've been too quick to judge them.They ate rat burgers in Demolition Man. Sly seemed impressed.
HmmmYeah, it's in poor taste.
It's a stereotype as you said. Park doesn’t want it NOW as the stiuation is different. If he doesn’t want it because some people will be offended then I'm gonna respect his wishes.Probably will get backlash from my comment, but 1 million dogs are eaten in South Korea every year.
It's not racist or xenophobic, it's a tasteless stereotype, saying that all Koreans eat dog. It's really no different to the stereotype that all English people drink tea or all Scottish people eat Haggis.
The article in the Man Utd app says to look at the positive things his country has to offer like K-pop…
Personally I would way rather eat a dog than listen to that shit
But seriously, the man doesn’t like the song, it should stop.
China has the dog meat festival though doesn't it? Maybe we should get a player from the Faroe Islands. Sure we could put a decent whale murdering chant together for him.Isn't there 1.5 million dogs eaten in Korea every year?
What rhymes with Moby Dick?China has the dog meat festival though doesn't it? Maybe we should get a player from the Faroe Islands. Sure we could put a decent whale murdering chant together for him.
Are you serious? We have one of the best song books in the world..Our chants are largely pretty shit or unoriginal. Vidic was bothered by 'he comes from Serbia, he's gonna murder ya', Park by this dog meat stuff, Lukaku by the penis song, Wenger got a chant saying he is a pedo, then the 'Viva Ronaldo' and 'Oh Robin van Persie' are just plain boring.
The Martial chant is probbaly the best of the lot in recent years.
Murdering prickWhat rhymes with Moby Dick?
This could snowball.Murdering prick
Can’t be as bad as Everton fans yesterday with their 2 songs made up of “Everton “ and “ Manchester is full of sh”Our chants are largely pretty shit or unoriginal.

Makes me sickMurdering prick
Are you sure Scousers don’t eat rats?They do eat dogs though, so it’s factual, not racist.
it’s the rat eating scousers that’s the false part
Ours being shit doesn’t preclude others from being shit as well. As I said above, I found most football chants crap in general. Chelsea probably take the cake with their repertoire of ‘Chelsea Chelsea Chelsea’.Can’t be as bad as Everton fans yesterday with their 2 songs made up of “Everton “ and “ Manchester is full of sh”
