    I don't think he's a Muslim or Jewish so I doubt it was a hate crime. But lots of people will be offended by this. It's gone a bit too far putting bits of an animal * body in a locker pretty sick I think. Pigs heads used like this are often used by * types or as death threats. Dunno what he was thinking.

    Over sensitive! I think it's probably more a case of jones being the * of the jokes quite a lot in the changing room, and he's just snapped. It did say in the article jones told everyone to leave him out of the banter.

    Even if he is Muslim that is an overreaction.

    Not really it's like throwing a banana at African. It's the Racial/sectarian connotations it has. Pigs heads have been left at lot of mosques in England and bits of pigs have been used by C18(Combat 18)and pushed through people letterboxes in the 90's and 80's try and scare Jewish and Muslims neighbours to get them to move out. They are used as intimidation. He probably shat himself then felt a fool as everyone laughed at him so thought * that I will smash his car up. Whelan did not mean anything by it his only crime is cultural ignorance.

    I wonder if Whelan knew about the religous side of it or if it was meant as a simple wind up.

    I'd go mental if someone done it to me but isn't it all part of dressing room banter?

    If it's banter do you not at least have to give some thought to what the reaction will be ?

    OK sometime you can be taken completely by surprise by peoples reactions but I can't help but think in this situation Whelan's only defence is he just isn't very bright. ( And I'mnot sure how much of a defence that is tbf)

    Although it's a pretty disgusting prank, I thought putting a brick through a car window was a bit OTT unless there were religous reasons. Turns out there is.


    Jones is a Rastafarian. They dont eat pork or shellfish. So pretty disrespectful on Whelans part. Probably a lot of ignorance and lack of awareness towards Jones religon
