well I think we’re definitely not disagreeing as to how bad all these incidents are…. how about we leave it there, and just hope for a speedy and just resolution to this

I didn’t think it was directed at me, I said I hope it wasn’t…. and I’m not sure how much clearer I could put it - there’s no ‘scale of racism’, you either are or aren’t, it’s simple! you can categorise an event or situation as a more extreme situation or set of circumstances, but it doesn’t...

and fair play for that, but these things need calling out by the decent majority amongst us feeling bad about it and apologising after the event is one thing, but that’s not going to stop the problem - and it does seem your club has it pretty bad at the minute… anyway, let’s just hope the...

why?

A sliding scale of how extreme the incident is, yes, but like I’ve said before (and won’t say again now because I keep repeating myself) a racist is a racist - in effect your argument could be ‘well don’t worry about these guys at Sheff Weds because they were just a little bit racist’ which as...

** idiots - there was more than one, and why if it was obvious to most something was going on did the whole stand sing “get the bastard off the pitch”? Perhaps get the bastards out the stands would’ve been a better option? Not buying it mate sorry, your club seems to have a deep rooted problem...

nothing you’ve posted makes me change my mind…. Although a number of the victims in the situation you’ve posted about are Asian, there’s no suggestion of a racist motive, and in fact the article even says as much, and two of the main victims identified are white males as far as I can make out...

what we want least is our season derailed due to an injury to a player because of a shite non league standard pitch or some shocking tackle from a shit Sheff Weds reserve team player

OK maybe aggressive was a bit much, and yeah like I said I take your point - but no need to have a go at somebody for commenting on something that’s important to them, in this case justifiably pointing out that his age group aren’t the main perpetrators. I’m not sure you even said they were, in...

and even then it’s not guaranteed anything will be done - wasn’t someone given time in prison recently for racially abusing Rio Ferdinand? this should be the norm / starting point for anybody found to be guilty of racial abuse…and yet some Wednesday fans were arguing over a lifetime ban from the...

not called out or reported though? chanting won’t achieve anything, and to be honest I doubt it’s intended to - it isn’t going to turn the clock back, stop this from happening again, or probably even make KP feel better (other than to know the fans are behind him) but it will happen anyway...

agreed @mark82 but let’s not lose sight of what we are currently talking about, a non-isolated incident of racist abuse from a set of fans with a LOT of previous, in a city that has a problem with racism… none of this, other than the incident on Saturday, is really our concern, but it should...

@rob9872 I can see what you are saying, but no need to get aggressive with your post - @Warwickshire lad was merely making a point he feels strongly about - he isn’t racist (I assume) and wasn’t standing on the terrace berating KP on Saturday, so maybe calm down a tad eh?

I have to say, I would be inclined to agree to an extent - I think there’s a legacy of racist views in some older generations, but maybe based on opinions passed down and the fact it was more accepted / less widely criticised back in the day, but I do think there’s little chance of many / any in...

…not “you racist b***ards, you know what you are…”? Unfortunately you know that’s making an appearance whether we like it or not

…are we still saying their club doesn’t have a problem? 🤔

where did he apologise?

you’d hope these individuals would not be at the game too, but can’t be certain….

No - incidents can be more extreme, but racism is racism, that’s it, there’s no sliding scale
