Make your own mind up...

This country is full of racists and it is getting worse. It is not just confined to this country either, there is a definite growth in fascism around the globe.
It's just banta though.

That's quite often the defence.

Allegedly a Cov Fan Shouted from a minibus/car, “look there’s a terrorist” to female lady of ethnicity (a Luton fan) going to the match. Apparently was recorded and reported to the police. Happened around 1330 around close proximity to the ground.

Hats off to any female fan going to any footy match especially one from an ethnic minority. Hopefully this idiot doesn’t put her off.

He wouldn’t be shouting that in a airport or aeroplane. There’s no place for it. But yet he puts his cov top and thinks he’s being funny.
It’s a shame how one or two (minority) tar or bring this sort of bad publicity.
An excellent win for the sky blues this should be making news on their pod cast.

Banter or not, this is simply not on! A female going to a football match - Asian or whatever - shouldn't have to face this sort of guttermouth twat! I apologise to her on behalf of all decent Coventry City fans and I really hope this piece of scum is caught and charged. Banter it AIN'T!!

A tad ott I think. It's certainly a lot better than it was in the 70's.
And I'd hardly say the country is full of racists, just the odd few I'd say.
There were over a thousand away fans yesterday, and 1 reported incident,
(Still 1 too many) but it hardly merits such a rant.

Was in the pre match pub and a young Asian lady wearing a hijab came in with a couple of (white) friends. Not sure if they were goint to game themselves, but there were 30 odd City fans and a good few Luton and nobody batted an eyelid. That's how it should be.

Not as bad as the a half a dozen young Asians who were chasing and harking abuse at an older City fan while he was getting on to a coach.
He had to bite his lip and say nothing as, did everyone else or they could have been labelled something.

Hmmm ...chasing him down the road? chasing him as he was getting on the coach? Harking? Hmmmm. I’m older ...I’m 45.

Were they being rascist? I doubt it.

Well if calling someone a fat white bastard isn't rascist then I suppose not.
Oh and he was about 70 years old.
The rest was in Indian or Pakistani so couldn't understand it but it was quite funny as they were all laughing.

Btw I am not sticking up for anyone and it is wrong.
Just pointing out it comes from all races and all levels of society.
Shame it spoils it for everyone who wants to live in harmony.

Whats the problem? spent 20 years as a young lad from Irish parents who came to Coventry in 1953 potless, my mother trained to be a midwife and staff nurse at Gulson hospital, my old dad went to the butts college at night (could hardly read or write) and did his city and guilds 1 and 2 and worked for British Gas for 36 years. He also joined the territorial army and ran for Coventry Godiva.
Worked another 21 years as a caretaker at Barrs Hill. At 84 they still asked him to come in and show the new young lads the job.
He also worked as a steward at Highfield Rd for 8 years too.
I lived through an era of comedians on tv telling jokes about "paddies" and how thick they are ...English Irishman and a Scotsman blah blah and the IRA bombings when as a 7 year old lad abuse from people who knew better who were mothers of children who used to play with me.
My parents put more into this great country than millions of people who scrounge, shag and just live a life on hand outs. Some one who gets called a paki etc is wrong but dont forget what my parents and many many other families got far worse.
"No blacks no dogs no Irish" was often seen in boarding houses. Ask many a African person who lived through the same era they will say the same.
Too many people dont realise the world is full of ignorant people who soon change their attitude when a surgeon from African ancestry comes to see them before they go under the knife at hospital.
Rant over PUSB

Yeah, I agree. I'm just saying that's what they use as a defence, that it's just banta. As if that somehow excuses it.

Why is it unbelievable?
Did I make it up?
What reason do I have to make it up.
As there are Asians and other Europeans including myself in my family why do I need to lie.
I have had many racist remarks against myself over the years so know what it is like.

If find it hard to believe the term white was used yes.

Are they sure it wasn't Luton Town's most famous fan, Tommy Robinson?

Not listened but I hope the book gets thrown at them if the reports in the thread are accurate.

Despite the impression you might get, attitudes to race seem to have been pretty steady for decades and not getting worse. New report uncovers extent of racial prejudice in Britain


They'd only be labelled something if they were actually guilty of doing it.

Not quite true. I know a lad that got done for racially aggravated assault when he was attacked by two Asian drug dealers because he happened to say “you Muslim bastard” while they were hitting him. The lad made a right play of it in court, making out he was afraid to leave his house now and all sorts while giving it shit to my mate outside the courthouse.

OK my mate is no angel, but it was hardly an appropriate response when he’s being set on by two guys.

Lots of racist fucks. Also lots of non-white fucks who play the system. Both are possible. It’s not all black and white (no pun intended).

Hopefully can be identified and dealt with. No place for that sort of behaviour in our fanbase.

I can see why that would be difficult to understand...
