United Fan Charged With Shouting Racist Abuse
courtesy of Oliver Holt on Twitter: "So now a MUFC fan is charged with shouting racist abuse at Stoke players. Another example of how wrong we were to think problem had gone"
Anyone hear anything else about this? |

This has been a problem for a long time, now people is getting better at reporting it. So good news, kind of.
I saw Rob Harris in AP mentioned it too. |

Hopefully a lifetime ban will be forthcoming as well.
Fucking mong... and it's good (and a relief) that people reported him. If any mong sat around me said anything racist, I'd report them straight away... and I'm sure most on here would do the same. |

The whole Terry-Suarez thing has bought the whole issue of racism back into the spotlight.
I wonder if the United fans would've turned the guy in previously. I'd like to think so but I've an uneasy feeling that such things go on at grounds every week and go unreported. Perhaps that's the good thing to come from the whole sorry affair. People suddenly have the balls to complain and know action will be taken. |

It's like when there is a major plane crash, all the little one's you'd never usually hear about get reported for a month or so.
People have been getting evicted from football grounds a couple of times a year for racism for yonks. Good to see people are aware of it, but lets see where we are in 5 years time eh. |

This is the evidence that will categorically prove that Suarez is innocent.... no wait its not!
Seriously though, unfortunately we all know this happens but the best way to stamp it out is for fellow supporters to take responsibility and speak out which happily is what happened in this case. |

Ban him for life. Why's this being reported now anyway, happened before the Evra/Suarez and Terry/Ferdinand incidents, I am aware he's only been charged now but surely he was reported way before then. Racism will always be around, there will always be idiots. What confuses me is how this fella can cheer Nani's goal and then go turn around and racially abuse black players. The media have a very funny way of dealing with issues.
EDIT: Ignore, because of the time taken by the relevant authorities to deal with the other racist incidents I incorrectly assumed it was the away game. Point still stands with the guy in question being an idiot. |
