Racist abuse : Sun Apr 26, 2009 10:28 am  

I normally stand in the shed but due to the sun yesterday we all moved and stood next to the beer vendor infront of the variety club.

Behind us was a guy who took double standards to a new level of ingorance, when Calderwood scored his try he surged forward hurling racist abuse at him for no apparent reason, then not to long after that Turner was stood near us waiting for a drop out and he was being very complimentory towards him. Funny that the colour of someones skin is masked by the colour of the shirt they have on their back.

Did you report it to a steward?

One word to describe this bloke "SCUM".

I was in the shed a youg lad stood next to me he did the same thing when calderwood got his try, he threw a load of racist abuse at him, i dont know how he thought he would hear him but I know all the kids did.(THUG)it's making me embarassed some times to even stand in the shed and watch the match, with some of the language that come out of the groups of lads that stand at the back, they get so bladdered before the match it makes me wonder if they can even see it.

I told him myself he moved away, he was a young lad with a skinhead

To further reiterate my point, if you hear anything like this, then report the person who is coming out with said abuse. Just standing there stewing about it and then complaining on here is never going to make a difference.

Edit - fair enough if you did, Zandor, just a shame more don't.

Na I was stood with a friend and his young kids, the guy sprouting his cack waswith a big group of middle aged guys, quite frankly wouldnt have trusted them not to kick off with us if they'd have seen it happening.

Oh grow some balls, man. It's easy enought to sneak a quiet word in with a steward and, if they did their job properly, they wouldn't allow them to kick off with you anyway.

and how often do you see a steward in the shed?

Agree with GT. This sort of thing is not acceptable and needs to be stamped out. Any racist abuse has to be reported to the relevent people. I can live with bad language. It happens and I myself have slipped up on many occasions but the colour of someones skin is never an acceptable thing to comment on.
