Racist abuse. : Mon Aug 02, 2021 11:03 am  

Warrington guardian are reporting that racist abuse is being looked into with a leeds player.

My thoughts. Like come on wire fans. We are above that give the opposition stick. But let's not be racist. We are above that crap.


If they find them ban. And it proves to be true. And proves they said it. Ban them. Cause it's not something this club and stands for and they should not be wearing the shirt of a wire.

Shocking.

I thought the club handled the abuse thrown at Robert Hicks a few years ago very well, if the investigations identify individual(s) and if Oledzki is willing I think it would be useful to repeat the exercise.

Education better than an out and out lifetime ban in my opinion.

I'd be surprised if it was racist

Well to be racist he would have to been called a white so and so or a slav so and so or something similar. I think it's going to turn out to being a xenophobic abuse but we will see.

Semantics.

It's the rfl who are investigating. This isnt a club investigation.

I'm sure there's a relevant pun that could be worked around "anti-semantics" but it's probably best avoided....
