Bristow, "The Clueless Cockney", and his total lack of tact were self evident when he turned up to a funeral. I think it was Jocky Wilsons.

There, in front of the assembled TV cameras as various sporting celebs trooped in, was Eric, in a suit .. with obvious prominent advertising slogans stuck on it...

One of Bristow's tweets read: "Might be a looney [sic], but if some football coach was touching me when I was a kid, as I got older I would have went back and sorted that p0of out."

He added: "You got to sought him out when you get older or don't look in the mirror. Glad I am a dart player. Proper men."

Eric Bristow dead right.

Eric Bristow is a perfect hate figure for Guardian types.

English
Working class
White
Male


Cry....Must you use every single news story to peddle your agenda.

Bristow's comments were ignorant and disgusting.

Actually I'd just read the media attacking him with the "real men" quip. His entire quote makes a least makes some sense.

If somethng like that had happened to me I may well have went a bit "Charles Bronson" when I grew up. But Bristow has shown a total lack of empathy for any victims, he's basically insulting r*pe victims. He could have said what he might have done without trying to belittle and destroy people who have already had horrific things happen to them, which is bang out of order..

i think this highlites the way these abusers select their victims

bristow as a gobby kid would probably never be on the radar of these blokes

some of erics sentiments on this are pretty mainstream, but his choice of words was poor

and of course if you go and beat up an abuser you are likely to do more time than him if caught

saw one of these blokes on tv the other day,saying he never told anyone and no other victim spoke to him about it,then he said he took 7 of them to tenerife and raped a different one of them every night,how does he no that if he told no one and no one told him,would get ripped up for shoitehouse paper in a court of law,plus to rape 7 different people on 7 different nights you,d need to be a very good judge of who wasnt going to kick off,get together and beat the shoite out of you

I dont think you can criticise the victims for not doing something, but it does surprise me how the alleged perpetrators of these large scale deeds dont end up on iron lungs.

The BBC News website is reporting that Bristow's tweets have, ludicrously, been referred to Staffordshire Police as a 'Hate Crime'.

It is precisely the liberal PC attitude that has helped to breed peados to roam everywhere followed up by establishment and politco obfuscation and cover ups
Bristow is right but shouldn't have said it - it is something you may wish to do but don't broadcast it!!!

''Bristow, 59, has since deleted many of the comments, in which the only hint of an apology came with a message that read: “Sorry meant paedo not poof.”

Of course it's not ludicrous!

This is 2016 we're living in, where not only can you be offended and have everyone set up a support group (or at very least, a safe space) for you, but you can also get off on being a real-life victim in a wholly legally acceptable way too!

Bristow should have kept his ill-informed claptrap to himself and rightly deserves the public ridicule he's receiving. But the sledgehammer of hate crime legislation to crack the nut of stupidity?

What a world eh?
