It’s been used for years as a form of racism, Spurs fans adopted it as a way of combating that abuse. Not for me personally in a modern society but we don’t live in a perfect society.

Being on a banner does not mean it's not racist and anti semitic, just confirms those who use that kind of language are, so no place for it on here.

You must be disappointed in the composition of the current squad then? "Hammer throwers" like Hartley, Gallagher, Dunne, Carroll, Tait, Donnelly, Campbell and Scott. There's a world of difference between being lightweight and a hammer thrower, as I've said repeatedly before. No way do I want a team of hammer throwers to represent our club. I don't want a lightweight team either for that matter. What I do want is a team physically capable of withstanding challenges and winning tackles fairly to compete. Not being lightweight does NOT mean being a dirty thug. Its not either or. Allan Campbell is a player that I admire, as do many others, but he is physical. He's no hammer thrower though. He doesn't shirk tackles; is hard to knock off the ball; and gets in opponents' faces. Skill aside, another physical player in my opinion is David Turnbull. Yes, he is very talented, but he is also difficult to simply barge off the ball. He can also put in a reasonable tackle. On Saturday, Hibs will present a physical challenge. We have to compete with them, but that doesn't mean kicking them off the park. It means getting in their faces, being able to hold the ball under pressure and being able to put in a hard tackle when required.

That's because most of the people that use it aren't Jewish and many Jews see it as antisemitic.

Behave - left to you we'd have a team of "Hammer Throwers". You really are obsessive about the physical aspect of football. He's been one of our success stories this term and long may Stephen Robinson see him in a different light to you and some others on here. He's not in the team to be physical - that's what others are there for

I've got mixed feelings about Polworth. He's a footballer and a creative one at that so he's been an asset to the team. He is however lightweight and definitely struggles to make any impression against the better sides. Coming round to the view that he's probably a decent lower half Premiership player.

Footballing slang and can be used as a racist (anti semitic term). Not a word I'd use.
