who thinks this is idiocy?

BBC Sport - Football - Catholic Church calls for Dallas email transparency so nobody can have a joke now?:confused:
The Catholic Church want the Scottish Football Association to sack head of refereeing Hugh Dallas if he sent an "offensive" email about the Pope.

Dallas is a dickhead and should have no further part, ever, ever, ever, in Scottish football (not that I care that much anyway). On this occaision, the one and only true Church is correct.

If refs are bringing religion into football the game really is going to the dogs just glad it doesn't figure in the English game

whilst he may be a dickhead, any church interfering in e-mails sent by anyone as a joke, whether in good taste or not is FARCICAL. imho.:rolleyes:

Re: who thinks this is idiocy?

If Hugh Dallas sent the email I think it's a bit harsh to sack him for it .

Within the context of the sectarianism amongst some of the so-called Catholic and Protestant Christians in parts of Scotland it was a silly thing to do if he did it .

He hasn't had the best of careers as a referee , but an apology and some kind of gesture of reconciliation may be a good thing .

The Catholic Church has not written anything about this affair .

There is sloppy use of language in the media .

The Scottish Catholic media office director , Peter Kearney , has written . He is not the Catholic Church which has about a billion members , he is just one member .

Re: who thinks this is idiocy?

think the main question in this farce, is Who did he send it too? if not to a senior member of the church, but to a mate, then hows this got in public domain? i n assume quite a few on here get e-mails from mates that some would deem offensive, i think there funny, its how some deal wi stuff.
