Papiss Cissé

[Guest bimpy474]

Cisse is ignorant to my belief that the club is more important than him, a sponsor, and his religion or his beliefs. You are also ignorant to this as well.

 

Weyhey, we can all play the ignorant card, this is fun.

 

 

 

Yeah but you, the club or anyone else here can't force Cisse to chance what he believes in. Just like Cisse cant force you to change your beliefs. What's so hard to understand? You're entitled to your opinion but that doesn't make his a wrong one.

 

 

I do suppose being paid £50,000 a week to do your job must enter into somewhere, it's a tricky situation. Despite my obvious sarcasm to all this. I still dont know why he can't wear a plain or charity sponsored shirt.

 

 

[ujpest doza]

Bimpy and TT showing their true ignorance here, like. Embarrassing.

Will you quit with the ignorance shite man ffs.

 

As far as i'm concerned he can do what the fuck he do what the fuck he wants outside of work (and lets be clear on this football is just a job and nothing more to the modern footballer) as long as when he's at work he does as he's told and wears the club uniform that he is required to wear just like all of the other players and staff.

Bimpy, you're being a fool. You know you are, too, as you're picking up on the fact that god isn't real in this whole argument . The existence of a higher power cannot be proven, but peoples belief in 'god' or whatever is a very real thing.

 

TT, you don't even know what ignorance means, ffs.

[Guest bimpy474]

I don't think you can castigate someone for their beliefs, whether you believe it or not is up to you, as its up to them what they choose to believe. Whether its "true" or not is completely subjective. I don't think Aliens are real but I have friends that do, and that's up to them.

 

Like pointed out earlier I wouldn't wear a KFC logo on my top, but thats my choice and others might completely disagree. let's face it, Wonga is morally bankrupt, and there were plenty espousing that view when they became sponsor. But now as its "religion" based objection its not ok?

 

Why ? i get the percentage rates. I know this doesn't seem fashionable but i'm one who believe you are responsible for your own actions. No one is forced to use Wonga, the way is being portrayed is that they force themselves on people. Don't get me wrong i understand the argument, i just think it's a bit of excuse for people who act like idiots at times.

Sorry Jim, i wll admit i'm teasing a bit. I do think belief religion is mental though.

I assume it is Wonga that have rejected the suggestion of him wearing a plain top or one with a charity on. He is a striker/goalscorer and he will be pictured more than most other players, which is how they advertise their company.

I was wondering that, is it Wonga as this stage or the club. I would think the club at this stage as they are the ones who receive the money from Wonga and he's an employee of the club. It would be nice if they let us know what's going on. Been saying that about lots since Ashley's took over though.

[KDT]

I think the real question here is did Andymc1 get paid for this and if he did how much.

[madras]

San toon, while I get your point, in my eyes he's kicking off with the KFC top but ok with the McDonalds logo. Doesn't make sense unless there's an n'zogbiaesque ulterior motive.

For me it's basically set up to prey upon the weak and vulnerable. People who are desperate for cash and can not obtain it any other way, and then are crippled by the repayments. I know people are ultimately responsible for what they do in life but its a bad set up.

 

I do understand that, i really do. I just think if go to Wonga and see their rates you say no. Although i understand why and how people get drawn to Wonga and their ilk.

 

Someone on here in one of the other threads said, kids should be taught about financial management, debt etc at school, not a bad idea (whoever said it like).

Wonga charge far higher interest rates than Barclays. If Cisse's main objection is excessive interest rates then surely there's your reason why he opposes one sponsor and not the other.

[madras]

If his one objection is excessive rates someone ought to inform him of Barclays practises and the effects they've had, makes wonga small beer in comparison. Then again that would count him put of many moves wouldn't it.

[Disco]

This story is gagging for some new revelations or some progress one way or the other.

As in grey aliens and shit or that there are no alien lifeforms at all in the entire universe?

If that's where he draws the line, that's where he draws the line. Seems possible to me. Doesn't think that money should never be lent out at all but objects to obscene interest rates aimed at the poorest people in society.

 

You'll have to fill me in on the Barclays thing as I'm not sure what you're getting at. Maybe Cisse doesn't know either.

yeah I agree to an extent, but the thing is, its the desperation that draws people in. As they make it easy for those who can not go elsewhere. But yeah it should be taught in school, as people learn as they go along which is a dangerous game.

 

I think my point would be, there is a driver who comes into my work, i've got to know him outside of work now. Him and his missus have so much debt, yet have to have 2 holidays a year (in this country). They will use a company like Wonga if the leaving date for the holiday falls before their monthly payday. Obviously pay it back on their return from holiday.  It's mental, they do need the holidays, he'll never be out of debt. They buy things they can't afford, all have a computer each etc. Then they do the same if bills come in before payday.

 

It's nuts. At no stage does he think, right lets not spend for a year and get out of this.

If we dont relent, he wont need to. We'll actively sell him as he wont play in the shirt. He holds the cards tbh, he's not refusing to play, he just refusing to play in the Wonga branded shirts. Splitting hairs i know but that'll be the argument.

[Hanshithispantz]

Isn't it more the interest rates in which the company has on their loans though that he supposedly doesn't agree with? Not necessarily just because they're "bad"?

 

EDIT: Just seen your other post

[madras]

For polic, Barclays deliberate misselling, libor fixing, charging £25 for going £1 overdrawn, caught avoiding tax thats just off the top of my head, probably more.

[biggs]

on look north soon, maybe him or his representitives will come out and make a statement ,Cisse is nearly as quiet as the club atm

[Guest reefatoon]

I'm still surprised he know's what Wonga is and what it portrays.  He wouldn't have had the foggiest when it was announced until someone had a little word in his ear about how bad/immoral it would be to wear and promote.  I am going for his agent, hoping for a bumper pay day when we give up and sell him.

Yeah fair enough that is a poor way to run your life, but I imagine people use it who are desperate to get shopping in, pay rent etc as well.

 

Yeah that's fair too. Must something the govenrment could do. Especially when people are borrowing to pay rent etc. Possibly offering the same as Wonga without the interest. Paying for the people directly and then getting the money back at later stage. The no interest part being key. Maybe a government bank/lending department.

Also, banks like Barclays offer 'muslim friendly mortgages' etc.
