Keep asking the serious questions; dinnae let yersel be palmed affSometimes I should maybe lighten up.Maybe I pitched this wrong?
Gunts agree it was one of them! It's all they're talking about ... not quite. Two out of two I've spoken to said The Mighty Hibees deserved to win.The Hibby that chucked it wasnae Shy
No.Did I miss something here?
Genuinely wondering how throwing Coconut is racist?I can’t believe that in this day and age it happened. This involves a vicious racist pre-meditated act that was planned long beforehand.
I’m not going back this season if it turns out that it came from the Hibs end. We need to sort this out and grass on anyone embarrassing our club.
Fuck racism.
I don’t know what happened or what the reason was but there are two derogatory uses of the word coconut I’m aware of. One is: black on the outside but white on the inside. Also in the Southern Hemisphere it’s a general derogatory name for a black person with dreadlocks bunched like Omeonga. I might be jumping to conclusions but it pisses me off.Genuinely wondering how throwing Coconut is racist?
Sorry about being negative, I’ve just reminded myself of the rest of the game. Such a good day to be a Hibbie. The team showed real grit to get back into the game.
However - Flash back to 1983. Annoyed me that that bananas, etc stopped my brother going to games.
Or it's simply this Cambridge United tradition for their Cambridge Utd reject? Weird but nonetheless a thing.I don’t know what happened or what the reason was but there are two derogatory uses of the word coconut I’m aware of.

Fair enough mate,It’s just no something that occurred to me whatsoever.I don’t know what happened or what the reason was but there are two derogatory uses of the word coconut I’m aware of.

Where do you find a coconut in a temperate zone?
European or African?Ah. The swallow question, and not the one I usually ask.
What's the difference between a coconut and a chestnut?Ah. The swallow question, and not the one I usually ask.

It could grip it by the husk!Doesn’t matter. How would they hold it.
Yes I reckon so otherwise why throw a coconut on the pitch?Did I miss something here? Is it referring to Omeonga's hairdo?

It's a weird Cambridge Utd reference, the big huddy Hertz forward played for them before signing for the Yams.Yes I reckon so otherwise why throw a coconut on the pitch?

. I've Got A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts
It's the song every Cambridge fan longs to hear.
If I've Got A Lovely Bunch of Coconuts is booming out of the PA system at the Abbey at 4.50pm on a Saturday, you know the U's have picked up three points.
But why is the novelty tune, originally written in 1944, such a cult classic at the U's?
Robin Mansfield, 68, started watching Cambridge when he was eight: "It's quite simple. Our neighbour, Jack Morgan, did the announcements in those days.
"He said: 'I had a pile of records in front of me, and that was the one on the top'.
"There was a break for a season or two when they played Perry Como's Magic Moments."
Craig's got a lovely team of coconuts
All of them cannae play for shite
Thick ones, hairy ones they think they've got the rights
They hate the Edinburgh Hibees cos we're fucking dynamite
O Craig's go....
