Jimbo Ram reacted to Mucker1884 in Billy Sharp
Are the taunts of "The old guy" stood by the bus still unknown publicly? Do we still not know what Sharpe was reacting to with his face to face "What you gonna do about it" reaction?
Surely if it was "paedo related" and/or relating to his deceased son, then whilst his reaction would have been perfectly understandable (imo), surely someone close by could have taken the lead, and put "The old guy" in his place? Surely matters could have become "official", be that legally (Reported/arrested/charged) or club related (ID'd and banned)? Surely with the number of witnesses, "The old guy" would have received more "reaction" from bystanders, with comments along those lines?
Which makes me think... rightly or wrongly... that maybe his taunts were "less personal" than some on here seem to be assuming? Maybe they were more in line with what has sadly become expected (I won't say "accepted", as it isn't!) outside a football ground? Maybe he was reacting to being called a short-arse, or a w-anchor, or simply a banjo-playing cowherd who wasn't particularly accurate?
If that's the case, then he (Sharp) should have rose above it. Reacting to those sort of taunts are seen as being unprofessional. Seen as being hot-headed.
Again rightly or wrongly, I've always assumed the taunts from "The old guy" were more in keeping with my second scenario, and have therefore always perceived Sharp's reaction as being unprofessional, and not the sort of temperament we want to see from our own players?
I guess if we don't know what was said by "The old guy", we'll never know whether Sharpe is a "decent sort" or "A bit of a hot head", and this particular conversation will continue to go round and round in circles?
*For the record, I have never been officially accused of being a paedophile, nor have I lost a child... (although having our 1 hour old granddaughter in my arms as she took her last breath** was certainly "An experience")... so I'm uncertain as to whether I even qualify to be making any comment on here? Apologies if not, and my respects to those who have indeed experienced such a tragic loss.
**Nobody knows the precise time of death due to her penchant for sleep, her pathetically weak heartbeat, and the nigh on invisible signs of breathing, but when grandad knows, grandad knows!

Very possible the old guy was doing the standard stuff as opposed to the vile stuff sharp has had but sometimes you just don’t know what people who react in an over the top way are going through or where they’re head is at that time , sometimes we react to stuff and it’s not the actual stuff that’s the main cause it’s just the straw 🤷🏻♂️,
Sorry for your loss and your certainty qualified to comment , as in truth most of us are , very few of us go through life untouched by some of the heartbreak it can throw at us

Perhaps having lost a child and knowing what that feels like makes me a bit more aware of what it must be like having to go in to work and hear it rammed down your throat by mindless morons. Sorry about being holier than though…

What did he do to the Derby nutters prior to them calling him a paedo by mistake? What did he do to the Derby nutters who ridiculed him about the loss of his son? Nothing. How would you react, just a little laugh maybe? It is irrelevant what other clubs have said or done. So stop talking 💩 and trying to defend the indefensible 🙄 I suggest you might see things slightly differently if you had lost a child.

I have zero expectations for the next few years. I feel better about the current state of affairs now that I acknowledge that.
I’m a rams fan for the long haul, through thick and through thin.
Let the well paid professionals at the club get on with it . There’s zilch I can do about it.
I’ll celebrate the goals, the wins and the good performances. I’ll not get down about the defeats, the poor performances or the ins and out of any players. I’ll enjoy the banter.
Life is too short to worry about things I can’t change or where I can’t make a difference.

How would you react to idiots shouting their mouths off that you are a paedo and taking the piss out of you losing your child? Having gone through the pain of losing my daughter I know how I would 🙄

If he bangs a few goals in for us and helps get us up, that will do fine for me.
