Pathetic. I would sooner have the Italian flag tattooed on my arm than sign that bollocks.

Euro 2020: TikToker J2hundred films himself 'sneaking' into Wembley for England v Italy final

Online personality J2hundred has 1.3 million followers on TikTok and more than 24,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel.

Dozy little prick filmed himself and broadcast it. Hope they throw the book at him - although it probably means he just gets more 'followers'.

Unfortunately we live in a world where being an 'influencer' or doing crap on YouTube or TikTok is viewed as a viable career path. The world is so fucked up.

 

[Stan Hullis]

That's because it is a viable career path - it isn't just "viewed" as one.

It's a viable career path for people who can't be bothered to train or qualify to do a real job.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Okay Grandpa, I think we will leave this one here.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

My niece is a very successful you tuber and blogger. Makes a lot of money at it. She is also studying at Oxford. You can do both.

 

[Tredman]

Meh, if people enjoy the content who are we to sneer - don't see it as any different from being a tv host etc. Takes a particular type of arrogance to tell people what they are allowed to derive pleasure from.

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Angry old man shouts at confusing new world.

Plenty of people earn a decent living posting crap* on the internet, its how most kids 'watch' stuff now. I can't say I understand it, but thats life., I'm pretty sure your not meant to understand the next generation.

*apparently my crap that I post is not considered interesting

 

[jd1981]

A lot of respected female journalists and reporters are saying similar things about their experience on Sunday.
A lot experienced being touched, cat calling and blatant mysogonist behaviour.
Sky had to abandon the reports due to the abuse their female reporter was getting. Many saying they felt intimidated and not safe.
A few times I’ve gone to games on my own and felt safe to do so.
Could a female of similar age say the same? I doubt it, feeling safe shouldn’t just include protection from physical attack but should include not being cat called or victim to sexist comments and behaviour.
Comments like “boys will be boys” or “it’s just banter” or “that’s what it’s like at football” are archaic and belong in the past.
Reality is there’s always going to be an arsehole somewhere who ruins it.

 

[jd1981]

To add to my above point simple question to ask anyone who displays the above behaviours is very simple.
Firstly would behave like that towards a female Colleague/customer?
Would you behave like that in a supermarket or walking down the street?
Would you behave like that if a close member of your family could see you?
If the answer to all the above is no why do you do it at football?
Alcohol is no excuse and neither is being caught up in the moment.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I think Adrian Durham was right. Alcohol was part of the issue but Colombian marching powder was a big factor too.
