Warwick Hunt Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 This "minority" is probably the truth but not as much as is portrayed going by the response to the crowd when someone had the audacity to challenge this moron. The majority don't want to get involved though. I told my story of the Rangers fans on the train up from Largs on Weds. One guy challenged them and he got shot down. No-one, including myself, was willing to get involved. IMO, it wasn't worth the hassle to me personally. There were a couple of transport police waiting on the station, I had a word. Job done, no danger to me. I applaud folk with the balls to do it, but not me. I'm a shitbag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree and until the majority do get involved this type of embarrassing behaviour that shames the club will go on. #moronsrule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint in exile Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 I've 'had words' a few times with some of our support who were making unnecessary comments, and was only backed up by those who were at the game with me. More often, it was ignored by the others around us or, worse, I was criticised for daring to object to such behaviour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Ricky Posted August 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I agree with those who say that sexist, homophobic, racist or sectarian abuse are disrespectful, unacceptable and potentially ilegal. I agree that as a club we welcome both players and fans with no thought of exclusion. Perhaps the safe and sensible thing to do if it occurs is to officially bring it to the attention of the stewards or police. I agree however that it is preferable that we self regulate ourselves as fans whenever possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 Imo if you encounter racist/bigoted behaviour among our own, contact the SLO. Then they can in a semi official capacity engage with those demonstrating the behaviour and hopefully encourage/educate them that it isnt the St Mirren way.

Trying to twist every topic to somehow be about you is the kind of desperate, needy antics that you'd expect from an emotionally stunted 12 year old. You're embarrassing yourself, now. My advice would be to take a wee break from posting, for your benefit and that of everyone else. Back on topic, this is depressing to hear. About 25 years ago I similarly challenged an arsehole who shouted racist abuse at a player during an Airdrie match. I was also surprised by the lack of support I received from others. It's a very sad state of affairs that we don't seem to have moved on a great deal. I would always call someone out, though. Failing to do so is as good as condoning it.

Behave yourself Got to bed or even Shed. I'm absolutely fine. Shame this place is full of 2 faced hypocrital abusers. Last Saturdays Gang disappeared last night, now appearing now and still full of shite. This is a Football Forum, we are allowed to criticise our players without being cliqued to feck. Some dafties just read the posts that may annoy them just to be offended. They never comment on the hundreds of others that are tip top.

If I had reported that eejit yesterday to the police or stewards, that would have been likely to cause carnage, especially if they took action, and I would have been viewed by fellow supporters as the villain. The only way to report the matter to the club would be to take his photo, which could lead to more problems. There is a role for fans to self police themselves. We all know that football is an emotive game, but there is a line that can't be crossed, and racist, sexist or homophobic abuse is that line. The most bizarre thing was when his pal tried to defend his comment by claiming that the use of the word "black" before the word "b*****d" was simply a descriptive term, before saying I must have done something similar at 17, the old "come on we're all racists really" line. The guy who made the comment was about 60 by the way! Edited August 13, 2017 by Hendo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early in the second half, one of our "fans" made a racist slur against Quitongo. I challenged him about it. No apology. Then, other fans near me, rather than challenging what he said, rounded on me, comments. like "he gets the picture", let's move on", and "we've got the pc brigade in here". So here's a question to all buddies. Should we challenge racism and other discrimination when we see it? And if we should why did fellow buds make me feel like I was the one in the wrong? There is no place for racism at our club. Pitty we could not get these brainless idiots on camara then report it to the club get them banned for life. We the fans need to play our part so well done so well done Hen do. Let's catch these idiots on our phones then report it to the club.
