    Surely I don't need to explain what a bad example that is?

    It's not much but it's worth mentioning that many peoples attitudes over Hillsborough have changed over the past 5-10 years. What people thought about it years ago maybe not what they think about it now.

    This is very true, and would be helpful to mention in someone like Umar's situation

    Please explain why Umar laughing at the shock value of someone calling Liverpool fans "murderers" is the same as him calling Liverpool fans murderers.

    Because the original quote if I remember correctly was said perniciously. I don't for one second believe he laughed at the 'shock value' of the statement and I don't really believe you do either. Additionally on your comedian analogy, a comedian telling a joke inherently generates a context that implies all statements are not meant with any sincerity.

    You combine that with his bindippers comment (which is perfectly innocuous in itself) and the fact he's a football fan himself, then I think the picture paints itself.

    He should be sacked for failing a simple IQ test of a) not putting such comments in the public domain, and b) not deleting them when he got the IFL gig.

    Let’s be honest, his interviews are nowhere near as entertaining as Kugan’s, he’s easily replaceable.

    Yet he probably got hired by IFL due to his troll comments

    Its similsr to the O,hara Davis thing......Its fine when its fine but they get thrown under bus if the scousers get offended

    id bet if Umar IFL Umar had all his troll tweets looked at there are many people he offendede trying to be noticed

    Not being funny but 2016 isn't that long ago, don't know how old he was then but yeah it's not like this was like ages ago.

    Umar probably should be forgiven and allowed back, the problem is no one is going to want to interviews with him.

    On a side note, if you know that a lot of what you do will require social media, would you not think to delete those tweets, I mean you wouldn't forget you wrote horrible tweets like that...

    The kid was wrong, made a big mistake like we all do. F me he didnt murder anybody in cold blood. Its not a big deal really, this small potatoes stuff. Kugan needs to either sack the kid, or stand by him and keep him. Its simple, no need to make a dam song and dance over it. Like Kugan always does.

    Kugan thinks the world revolves around him. He put up a video and IG pic with Bernd Boente "burying their beef" as if it was a major moment in boxing. For anyone wondering, that all stemmed from the Joshua-Klitschko fight at Wembley when Boente ordered Hearn to bar Kugan from ringside because of his biased reporting and Kugan threw his toys out of the pram, called Boente a "dwarf" (even though he's like 6'5") and refused to attend the fight at Wembley.

    It's clear from the Umar IfL Umar statement that Kugan thinks he's some sort of kingpin influencer in boxing.

    Yep. Why Kugan thinks anyone gives a fck about his made up "beef" with Klitschko's manager at the time, is beyond me. He never fails to bring that up whenever he gets the chance. He's such a fcking weird guy. He made a whole IFL video with Eddie after the Wlad fight explaining why he wasn't there. Who even does that? Then he never fails to drop it in, in a convo with AJ when he mentions rematching Wlad again. Something along the lines of, "Well hope I'm allowed to be there this time ha ha after all that drama and beef I had the first time. Fck off cnt.

    To be honest, I'd be happy if Kugan pssed off from IFL.
