Racist chanting towards our own supporter

Theres some right whoppers about and Silver is no exception.

 

No shame on you. You should voluntarily hand yourself into the police and admit your guilt where you will then be banned for interacting with the public for life. And then flogged.

 

But we’re ok to compare it to speeding?

Racism (regardless of the chants) is a criminal offence, as is paedophilia.

 

But you don't think a poster should be banned from this very forum for what was continuous use of what is termed a racist comment? Make your mind up.

 

If I recall rightly, Bronco DID get banned and there were many that, at that time, stated it should be a permanent ban. This was on the old C&B site and also on TCA.

 

By your logic he should be banned and reported for a criminal offence.

 

And as you yourself just pointed out, it wasn’t said as a racist slur. It was a mistake. That’s completely different to someone deliberately shouting racist abuse.

Come on buddy, don’t go back to your old C&B ways..!

 

Stop being a pedantic feck just because we have a difference of opinion..!

 

You're the most pedantic 'fecker' on here. Conversation ends with you.

 

It’s possible to not be racist (or a “racist supporter”) and simultaneously think a lifetime ban is too much...Stop deliberately misunderstanding the argument.

Fair enough.

The EFL zero tolerance is bang on. Lifetime stadium bans are there to be a deterrent but if people actively choose to ignore it and chant abuse, regardless of the context, then more fool them.

 

The club have asked for witnesses. They are going to visit the neighbours. Hopefully by the end they will have evidence to decide what actually happened and then decide what next steps to take. I’d hazard a bet that there is a CCTV black spot on that area.

 

I do think there has been a lurch in racist behaviour over the past few years, dont know if its brexit or some underlying issues but it is here.

Funnily enough never thought it would happen here but i guess love is blind.

As a Mixed Race bloke (mum is english and dad is half indian) it does worry me, its hard when you try to fit in yet others insist on casting you out. It does sicken me, but i am glad to see people apologising and making everyone welcome!

Personally I do think a lifetime ban is needed as others will think it is acceptable behaviour.

 

I bumped into a AFC Wimbledon fan on a local train down here yesterday who was on his way back from the game. Spoke to him about it and he told me that there were a group of young City fans run at them down the back of Holywell Ash Lane. There were so few of them, it apparently all passed by very quickly with the help of police.

The point is, similar this original post of the disgusting behaviour shown by a small minority of supporters, I’m absolutely devastated by some of the actions I hear of and have seen myself, that some of our following have shown this season. A small minority they may be, but with actions they are showing and the coverage that comes with it, there is a risk attached to it that it can become reflection on City supporters, one which has never been the case in the many years I have supported this club.

Bowyer speaks of a strong bond between club, supporters and local community. This is the Bradford City I know. I really hope the club can do all it can to eradicate these morons from the club who risk ruining it for the many others who respect the club and all those associated and around it.

 

Is that racist as well?

 

Hang'em high !!

 

Hahaha My God, many of you are ban happy, ban this, ban that!! Baby fascists !

Would I be allowed to chant Tony Robinson as a Baldrick fan, or does the name Robinson carry a life ban regardless
