I'd struggle to make it on time from Thailand mate and even if all 3 posters turn up I'm fairly sure there'd only be 2 people there.

My car is for a service. Next week?

 

[hill83]

All talk you lot. I’m on nights from 6pm so can’t make it anyway. You are all lucky.

…because heaven forbid more than one person thinks you’re a muppet for unnecessarily confusing the thread and making aggravating comments!

fucking muppet, grow up

That wasn't the same, that was one fan who was arrested and kicked out.

Yesterday was a number of people racially abusing a player over an extended moment of time which led to what seems like multiple monkey chants.

Yes while we have racist fans to say we have had an incident like yesterday is pretty disingenuous.

I'm not making it a competition for who has more racist fans but the idea that we haven't had incidents or have not heard fans say racist comments is wrong.

Hence why I think a collective show of solidarity with Palmer is better.

That is not what you said though.

We have not had any incidents like yesterday and to say we have is simply an untruth.

 

[hill83]

Palmer will know anyway and from reading the Wednesday thread it’s just decent people panicking. Treat it like a normal game.

If he scores he should celebrate by pointing at the seat in the empty kop

We have? I've just pointed to an incident where a Coventry fan was racist to a Stoke player.

It's not the same is it. Did we in large numbers abuse a player for an extended period of which built up to people making monkey gestures at him? No we didn't so forgive but stop lying as you are part of the problem. Not every club has the same issues and some supports are more racist than others.

Please stop talking the utter rubbish you are.

 

[Evo1883]

Podcast guy apologised .. to be fair it seems pretty sincere but I'm not kasey palmer , who he has directly tagged in the apology.

to be fair to @pusbccfc they’re right, it doesn’t matter if it’s one or one hundred, racism is racism - we can’t preach holier than thou if we’re guilty ourselves…it’s only ‘not the same’ because luckily it happened pre game rather than during, otherwise it could’ve escalated!

you can’t be ‘more racist’ - you either are or are not, simple!

you can be more racist and incidents can be more extreme

All racism is bad but some racist acts can be more extreme.

Not sure that helps in the scheme of things.
The act has been called out by Palmer. Fans have made their views known about racism. There will be enough empty seats their end anyway.

No - incidents can be more extreme, but racism is racism, that’s it, there’s no sliding scale

you’d hope these individuals would not be at the game too, but can’t be certain….

I'm not sure it's up to me and you to decide whether a gesture or words are worst to be honest.

What is the problem you're talking about?

 

[pusbccfc]

He's been absolutely slaughtered to be honest. Even his responses are getting slated. I think he's learned a lesson and hopefully others have to but people need to leave it at that now.

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Terry got me my trials at coventry as a kid

When I was a teen a Lad i played football with knew him well.
Seemed like a great bloke.

Wow, all thoughs other racist headlines over the years.

This same podcast told their previous manager to "f*%k off back to his own country" of course & brushed that under the carpet too. Good to see one of them (who isn't the perpetrator) has some morals.

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

…are we still saying their club doesn’t have a problem?

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

Apologised a few times on twitter.

He put out a pathetic non-apology in which he maintained that what he wrote wasn't racist but we (we being everyone except him) had misunderstood what he was saying. That was the only one I saw and after that he restricted his X account.

It's not the first time for him though is it.

STATEMENT: Coventry City sickened and saddened following racist messages sent to Fankaty Dabo

Coventry City is sickened and saddened following the racist messages sent to Fankaty Dabo on social media following Saturday’s Play-Off Final.

It's a wider societal problem.

Not sure. Has he got previous?

 

[David O'Day]

Not according to Frosties post

 

[pusbccfc]

Not according to Frosties post

His mates have ditched him quite quickly so I'm not surprised

 

[David O'Day]

Any Wednesday fan that accused Kasey of making it up and there were plenty yesterday deserves to be banned as well.
