For a while, I worked in Game development and something you would see in Online games is you would see some of the community notice some actual cheaters. They speak about it and you start to see others pick up on people cheating but then it reaches a tipping point, there is so much talk of cheaters that when they get killed by another player legitimately they see simple game mechanics as evidence of cheating. Suddenly you have the majority of people claiming they encounter multiple cheats in every game they play.
And this is the situation we might now be seeing with racism in football, players start to expect to hear it and their brain plays tricks on them. A boo starts to sound like monkey noises, taunting might sound like racist words etc. Unless it's clear and obvious it's maybe the time people need to take a breath before saying anything and allow a proper investigation because situations, where it seems like they may have misheard, muddies the water for the legit ones

Surely Rudiger should apologise to Tottenham for getting the wrong end of the stick.
I’d be fuming if I were accused of something I categorically would not and did not do.Bronco likes this. -

Not sure what there is to complain about.
someone has reported something , they have followed the rules and it has been investigated.
It will be more interesting how the findings are received by various groups -
Very similar to the guys who let smoke bombs off at away games, no individual fan is going to point him out, for fear of repercussions. -
But if they don’t say anything how does an investigation happen? Or do you mean the officials shouldn’t say anything? So no tannoy announcements etc?
