Clubs responsibility for fan behaviour is as old as the hills at all levels from the local park footie to Wembley.
Clubs responsibility for fan behaviour is as old as the hills at all levels from the local park footie to Wembley.Its more about for me what can the club do? It’s like violence at games. One guy punches another do we punish the club?
For me it’s a health and safety issue for the club, did they do everything reasonable to prevent it and did they act appropriately once they were aware of it. In Sheff Wednesdays case I’d argue the haven’t done the former as it’s clearly been an issue and the stewards didn’t seem to kick the guy out. But if it hasn’t and they did I’d feel less comfortable punishing what could be an anti racists club.
We’ve had thousands of seats closed off for years because one Cov fan decided to go full Chuck Norris against Derby County in 2021. Or maybe we should have waited until proof he wasn’t just a Leicester fan who’d gone undercover?Its more about for me what can the club do? It’s like violence at games.

No, but I think it was obvious that some kind of changes would have to be made after it happened, and any subsequent inconvenience to fans in that part of the stadium would be hard to argue against.Do you think that was an appropriate response?
That happens nowadays obviously can’t blame the club for someone getting a dig in Broadgate but if picked up by cctv the assailant is likely to get a banning order which are quiet stringent and nationwide.Its like the old school discipline question. Do you give detentions for behaviour to/from school?
Should the club act if someone punches someone while wearing a Cov top in town? I’m not sure. But I can see the point as it’s football related.
SameWish I hadn't gone on their forum this morning and clicked on the "Kasey Palmer applause" thread. Now feeling completely depressed.
I'd be happy to say fuck the FA Cup if they boo him.If he is targeted I’d fully support our players in walking off the pitch.
Really grim isn't it.Wish I hadn't gone on their forum this morning and clicked on the "Kasey Palmer applause" thread. Now feeling completely depressed.
I agree, it needs stadium announcements and a whole lot more and if it happens, walking off should be supported by the referee and the FA. The footage last week is dreadful and totally unacceptable.Well reasoned. Not sure ref talking to the managers dealt with anything
If that’s repeated no doubt they will walk off
Think Kasey was close last Saturday

Imagine being a non white Wednesday player and seeing your own fans boo someone who was racially abused?
So will you hear the 500 that boo or the 20,000 who don't? Like us most of them will be sound. Every club including ours has unsavoury sorts that follow them. I'm disappointed in their clubs response and also the EFLs but let's not assume they're all the same.It looks like he will play and sadly it seems like a sizable number of their fans are okay with him being booed.
Hopefully this ends the love in some of our fans have with them.
That makes it ok then? Also forgive me but nothing in my post indicated that I thought all of them are the same, in fact I said "sizable" which means a large part but not all.So will you hear the 500 that boo or the 20,000 who don't?

Error you said you hope it ends the love in with them.That makes it ok then? Also forgive me but nothing in my post indicated that I thought all of them are the same, in fact I said "sizable" which means a large part but not all.
That still doesn't indicate I said all their fans are the same.Error you said you hope it ends the love in with them.
Whilst love in is strong I think it was more united in grief after the two lads who died returning from the game. That shouldn't be changed over a few morons.
Serious!!!?? Oh myTheir young keeper making his debut is black, he’s going to have to stand by their fans all game. Imagine that being your introduction to football.
What’s the level for you given what’s happened then?The boos that may ring out tonight may not necessarily have anything to do with his skin colour let's not forget - by all accounts,KP was proper shithousing their fans - surely a section of our crowd would do the same to one of their players if the roles had been reversed

Shut up.
It is when they are basically booing a player for being racially abused.Hopefully that one moron will be charged or whatever but fans boo players up & down the country every week - it's not all about race

Have you watched Palmer’s video statement? The issue isn’t what anyone says, it’s what actually happens. You could just read the rest of the thread but some combination of:What more do you want to happen tonight? Serious question
