Nah, not at all good enough.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Season ticket for life and I'd drop charges
We've found Wouts replacement
Well done for the attempted punch. Fan should be drop kicked through a glass window off a 3 storey building
That's interesting. What other examples are there apart from kankeren?
Name a disease and we will use it to be mean to you.
I don't see how it is good to use violence against words. There are lot of stupid, ignorant people. Turn the other cheek or just say something back. But don't use violence.
Hahahahahaha
'Tering' (a word for tuberculosis) and 'tyfus' (typhoid) used to be very common, but they probably sound a bit old-fashioned now. I've heard some others used, but only very rarely. Not sure what else outside 'kanker' actually, come to think of it.

Tons of Norwegians of a certain age learned some Dutch swearing because of a rap song called Watskeburt, apparently released in 2005 by a group called De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig. Misheard lyrics was all the rage for a while, and this one was hard to beat. 'Kreft', Norwegian for cancer/kanker, was reasonably common as a curse word (maybe still is), and it might be a tiny bit because of this song.
Video is somewhat nsfw.

He has 0.71 goals per 90 minutes, putting him in the 96th percentile of strikers across Europe (Source: Fbref). This seems a pretty odd criticism of him.
Jesus this song is 18 years ago. They were a huge hit here with many more strange songs.
Right, aids and polio! Those feel old-school though, especially polio (I can imagine 'krijg aids' ('get aids') better); but then I haven't been around for over a decade anyway. I don't remember having heard cursing with cholera or pokken (smallpox); I basically know pokken only from the Zwolle crew using it in like Microphone Colossus 2 as a positive adjective ('pokke-FTG'), so maybe that's your Randstad advantage. (Well, 'advantage'.Tering, tyfus, cholera, aids, pokken, polio.
Maybe it's worse in de randstad
) My hometown go-to is 'kut' for anything and everything. (It literally means 'cnut', but it's a little less harsh and used mostly as a negative adjective and expletive.)Christ, Watskebeurt made it big in Norway?!
Its lyrics are hard to get even for Dutch people not from their scene - or parts were for me, anyway. Looks like the only disease-related curse in there is 'kanker' though.Ha, guess we both associate this song with the Lord's work!Christ, Watskebeurt made it big in Norway?!
"Pokkenventje" or something in that light is quite common if a bit old school.Right, aids and polio!

"Vuile aidshond" is something you hear in and around The Hague.
Ha, guess we both associate this song with the Lord's work!
Oooh, that's a nice one! Well, 'vuile aidshond' is ('tyfushond' has a similar feel); 'pokkenventje' sounds vaguely nice even, maybe something Flemish mums say to their babies: 'mijn lieve kleine pokkenventje'. Bring it on, Flanders.
Yeah pokkenventje isn't that bad. Definitely more lighthearted than aidshond, which is quite awful.
Feel like thread title should be adjusted to say *punches racist fan
'Big' is a bit strong, you wouldn't hear them on the radio or anything. It was an online phenomenon, probably mostly among adolescents, but for a good while everyone I knew listened to this. It also still comes up from time to time, but rarely.Christ, Watskebeurt made it big in Norway?!
In English both cancer and aids are pretty popular words, at least online, but it's pretty different from my impression of the Dutch way. It's almost always restricted to calling someone or something by the name of the disease, you don't get the disease+noun combo. In Norwegian it's also mostly like that, but sometimes a little more adventurous.
Actually, Berghuis' management came out with a statement and mentioned nothing about the racist remarks against Brobbey and said he lost his head after being repeatedly insulted himself. So it's a bit unclear again.
Might be a bit too long though.
They may have lost a bit of their menace, being so old.
Aids did spring to mind. Not sure how well it translates directly if Aids is replacing fecking. We'd have to say something like you aids-riddled cnut as an insult in English.Tering, tyfus, cholera, aids, pokken, polio.
Maybe it's worse in de randstad
According to wikipedia he scored just 14 goals in all competitions this season which is very low for the Eredivisie.
Give him a raise. That cnut of a fan deserved what he got.
Am under the impression this thread mainly teaches to curse in Dutch. Which is an evergreen, so will add the classic in Switzerland is Zurich Kloten airport.
The player has been offered* a three match ban (2 + 1 probational) by the FA.
* "given", but pending potential appeal not yet sentenced.

Accepted his 3 match ban for the punch. Still not cleared up what was actually said.
3 matches seems like not a lot. Cantona got 9 months for booting that geezer.
Any context as to why it's only 3?

Yeah seems on the "got off lightly" side - nevermind the disgraceful racist behavior from the idiot he punched.
By all accounts Cantona was severly provoked by racist and familial themed abuse.
With the politically correct society we now live in, you'd think that would be taken more into account.
