    I'm not condoning swearing in front of kids, or at any fan, but I am interested to know exactly what was said.

    You didn't mention the fact that he's completely one footed. I can't count how many times he's missed shooting opportunities and ****ed up crosses and simple passes because he's had to push the ball from his right to his left.
    Just have a go with your right foot already ya clown.

    if the player was called a disgrace by someone and he retorted back so be it, but did he expect to walk straight off the field without someone noticing

    the fans are suffering just as much as the players, and in carneys case for 5 years longer than he has.

    if fans don't hold the club accountable who will.

    also along with grim it wasn't the performance that was the problem anyway
    So reading the threads it sounds like you were the one who said something ???

    if you were, who are you and what have you done in sport to make you such a critic, all you are is someone who is in the squadron who other kids and there familys see someone from the leading fan base of the jets give out abuse to players .. great way to try and promote more fans in the squadron.
    and then wonder why that person who you abused didnt turn around and say hi mate, thanks for abusing me we just lost another game here is a handshake,autograph photo and then walks off happily singing down the sheds...

    So, reading the threads, it sounds like David Carney was the one who said something back???

    If he was, who is he and what has he done in sport to allow him to be such an abusive prick, all he is is someone who is a professional in the Jets who other kids and their familys see from the big name player of the jets giving out abuse to the fans... great way to try and promote more fans for the Jets in general. and then wonder why that person who was abused has no interest whatsoever in renewing their membership along with the massive bunch of others who are never coming back.

    Never met Body, no idea who he is.

    You are flat out abusing someone on the foz who called a player a disgrace for ignoring the kids hanging out to get autographs, the 10,000 fans who essentially pay his wages. If you think that deserves the abuse that Carney said what he did and stormed off then you need your head checked.

    I'm preparing a feast, where we all eat each other.

    From what I've read, no abuse was thrown at Carney till after he swore.
    the exchange started with carney being told that he should acknowledge the fans, not with him being abused by the fan who he then told to **** off.

    theres a massive difference

    Both parties in the wrong, leave the swearing out of it and it probably doesn't come to this. We are all frustrated but this is the worst time for it.

    Any person with some common sense would know that a professional footballer with as much experience as Carney doesn't tell someone to "F*** off" after being politely asked to sign an autograph. Please get a grip! Something would've been said to set him off by a silly fan who just wanted to vent their frustrations at another loss.

    Carney was/is an idiot for swearing at a fan no matter what the circumstances. He was especially stupid to do it within earshot of children. Hopefully he has apologized to the parents of the kids who were offended. However any adult who was offended by it needs to grow up a little. We live in/around/near Newcastle... swearing isn't uncommon. Everyone has turned probably turned around and told someone to "F*** off" a couple of times a month so you can't be too offended when a footballer does it.

    If i was booed off the field i wouldn't want to sign any autographs and i'm happy he didn't want too. I hope he walked into the change room and they all had a go at each other and learnt from what went wrong so we can stop it happening.

    Nothing would have been said that kids wouldn't already have picked up from school or the interwebs.

    The real issue are those honking tats Carney has. Seriously.

    Real issue here to me is the lack of transparency with the punishment for Carney.

    The club once again have basically closed ranks and refused to publicly announce the punishment he got if any.

    Maybe precisely the reason no one has confidence in those running the club when they fail to publicly address the unprofessional behaviour of a bloke they employ to represent the club.

    Contrast that with a well run club who would most likely make an example of the punishment public so as to reinforce the values they stand for and send a clear message to the rest of their squad staff about the standards required and repercussions for misbehaving

    Lets not even touch on the fact that the player and CEO were former teammates and the whole matter could have even been swept under the rug

    How the dimwits in the NRL behave is irrelevant. Footballers have a good role model image cause they are by and large better behaved than most sportsmen

    The swearing is an issue. Carney has to bite his lip when he is walking off the park and act professionally . Stubbins to his credit cops much worse and takes it.

    I disagree with you on this Member. It's between the employer and employee and does not need to be made public. I'd be pissed if I got hauled over the coals and everyone else in the workplace knew what my punishment was.

    I disagree, any punishment is between the club and the player and shouldn't be in the public domain.

    Thats how it should be in any work environment where someone is performance managed or punished. Its not the business of other employees, the public or customers.

    To go public would be unprofessional. If the club had gone public with it, you'd have argued they shouldn't have.

    I see a molehill. The biggest issue with swearing is the drunk arseholes in the stands.
