Yes if that is how he wants to behave and be portrayed. It has no bearing on our lives, the achievement of the team or the feeling of joy enjoyed by everyone connected to the club. It was a few seconds of horseplay in my eyes and no issue that causes some to get their knickers in a twist over.

Well if you think that then fine, in my opinion it was unprofessional he shouldn't have done it.
It has certainly no bearing on my life. And no knicker twisting. All I was asking was peoples opinions on it. Some it didn't bother some it did. I still think it didn't look good on national television with a worldwide audience when he's supposed to be an ambassador of the game. Anyway when we lift the cup next year hopefully he won't be there

Seeing as he's immortalised on the statue outside i would guess he can come and go as he pleases

Looked to me like he was wafting his hand to get some air.
