I've not making anyone a scapegoat. I hope he is greatly successful. When have I suggested that? Oh, I see, you made that bit up.

I'm commenting on the fact he speaks strange and has chose to speak with an ethnic accent for some bizarre reason
“Ethnic accent”? Ffs
 



If you want horrible accents. There’s some great videos of interviews with Teenage Roadmen from Toronto going round.
Funny videos those interviews are. It’s like you mixed New York and London slang but slapped a high pitched Canadian accent on it. It’s pretty obvious that they are faking their slang, but nevertheless they are hilarious interviews.

Anyway, this thread is ridiculous. Who genuinely gives a toss how Cal Ohare speaks. If you’ve noticed, more and more people around the country are starting to sound like that. I think it’s due to the rise of music and culture coming out of London that has led to young people using the slang you’d hear in London. Don’t quote me on that though.

Linguistics is an extremely interesting field. You don’t strike me as a linguistics professor crooked bladesman.

No, I’m not pal. Just an observer in the absurd.

I also find it absurd that that people take offence when mentioning these strange things.

Not offended, not at all. I don’t speak like he does so why would I be? I’m just curious to why you care how he speaks when it’s a normal phenomenon across our country.
 
It’s not normal though is it? Which is why I have pointed it out.
Because London is a primate city and it has such a grip on the culture and language of the UK, it’s normal that people, especially younger people like Ohare is start using slang and language from London. Similar phenomenons occur in places like the Philippines and Argentina, where one city is so much larger than others, regionalized slang of those cities eventually spreads out to the rest of the country.
 
That’s funny - you don’t many kids in Crosspool speaking like that?
Perhaps not. Just because something is observed in one group of people doesn’t mean it is in another. Crosspool is also one of the nicer parts of Sheffield to my recollection, so maybe it’s a class thing.

So you think he’s faking the accent do you?
 
You’re not his mum though are you!

Nope, not necessarily. I don’t know the lad. Even if he was, I don’t particularly care.
Then your just contradicted yourself. Also. I did not question whether your cared, as that’s not the point of my post. Your obviously cared enough to post in this topic, if you did not care, you would not have replied.
 
It would appear you are the one who has taken offence at the way he talks - because it’s ‘too ethnic’

No - if anyones accent is real then it is what it is. What I can’t understand is why fake it?

I don’t know if he’s faking the accent or not, again I am not a personal friend of him. I don’t see why it’s a big deal. I replied to your post because I couldn’t really believe that this is something we’re slandering him for. Seems like you’re looking for things to get mad at him for.

Seriously, he’s our player. He hasn’t played a single competitive game for us. I don’t care about the way he speaks, only the way he plays. Some in our fan base are too quick to dismiss new players for little things like this, and for what reason?
 
Feeling the man love on the thread chaps 🥰

When have I slandered him? Oh, you’re making that up aren’t you? I have simply pointing out the bleeding obvious, that his accent is not real.
