... is happening to the working man's game for ****'* sake?.

Which sanctimonious **** has been put in charge of what constitutes foul and what constitutes abusive?

Over 60 years, watching the Lads, that's been 99% self-policing. Bigger lads check the younger lads and the general support groans if people go too far. Anything 'over the top' is usually drowned out by the moral majority. The day some self-appointed judge & jury, of a steward, condemns me to a ban is the last day I'll set foot in the ground ...

... Liverpool has relentless gun crime, gang wars and people trafficking but wants to stop a bloke, at the end of a long week at work, shouting 'F**k off ref' <doh>

Secondary school kids, and women down the gym, probably know more foul and abusive words than I do at my age.

******** off you ******* bunch of controlling ******'s!!!

As a kid one of the best things about going to the match was being allowed shout swear words like "bloody" and "bugger off". Now the precious souls have to be protected even though they'll know far more obscenities than we did courtesy of parents who f and blind every other word.
Even worse is that want supporters to shop others in it.

And that they haven't had new signs printed since they moved from Goodison <doh>.

Just another example of the dire **** this country is in mate. Sorry to change subject but,
I’ve just read that the “ most prolific sexual predator of all time” raping numerous women…33 years old…has been sentenced to “life…. “14 years”… so let’s say half of that in reality if he behaves himself!!
FFS…. what has this country come to?
This fella should be locked away forever… no mercy…if we’d have had the death penalty still, I’d have him on the gallows next week,no appeal, along with all these other grooming gang members. ****ing dog **** people! How have we come to put up with this!

Smug - I think there is a different approach that might be fun...assume we get 3,000 tickets allocated for the game - we persuade 3,000 SAFC fans to send complaint text message to the number complaining about Moyes and the "relegation battle" from when he was in charge...

Trust you to think outside of the f*****g box ya ****!!!

I complained about one of our fans at Rotherham away. My daughter was about 14 at the time. He was in the seat next to her left and the home fans were to our right. He was leaning over her screaming about *****s and other sex related obscenities and waving his arms about. Due to a past history of DV, she was scared of him and found his behaviour triggering. I asked him to pack it in and he told the pair of us that football was no place for women and we should be at home. We switched places so my older son was next to him and barricaded him from leaning over us which he kicked off about as we were apparently spoiling his away day.

We just wanted to watch the footy. We were not interested in shouting about a sex abuse case that the people in the stand next to us probably were not involved in and just happened to live in the same place where it happened.

Sorry to hear that Becs. Unfortunately, we have a number of idiots that follow us….as do most other clubs in the land….and for away matches you can never choose who you’re next to. I had this with my kids yonks ago…. just let them know it isn’t funny, it certainly isn’t clever, but they’re safe in our overall community, despite an idiot or two raising their ugly heads.

So he told you to be at home cause women shouldn't be at football but he was upset when instead of a 14 year old girl he could lean over and intimidate he was faced with a, I assume ya son is a big enough lad to block him and intimidate him back he got all upset? Without even considering what he was shouting and why he sounds like a bit if a ****er <laugh>

That's fair enough Becs and I appreciate what you're saying.

It does, however, reinforce what I'm saying in that he probably reigned in what he was saying because other people were around.

I was at the City Ground, as were you, and the away section was regularly chanting 'Scabs' at the Forest fans.

As a resident of Mansfield, during the Miner's Strike, that strikes home much more than comments about the pervert Jimmy Saville tbh.

The miners strike resulted in deaths, division in families and real hatred than endures to this day ...

... but shouting nonsense, at opposition fans, should never result in life bans imo.

If decent people can't police themselves then I'm at a loss, I always pull people up and so do the lads I travel with.

At the match I'm under constant threat of "telling grandma" about my language. Since I started taking the grandson every time I've sworn, he's dobbed me in! I'm surprised I wasn't in more trouble with what I was coming out with against Everton when Sadiki was getting kicked to f*ck and Arsenal were trying to claim every challenge as a foul

Impossible to uncouple this sort of thing from the cultural shift we've seen in the last decade or so, not saying it's right or wrong because that's obviously down to preference but I can't say I'm surprised.

I really miss it now that you rarely hear people saying, 'How lad', when someone goes too far.

That used to be me but I don't always feel confident in checking young coke-addled teenagers these days.

I always try but I don't want some steroid muncher coming at me ...

... one of the comprises you have to make I suppose.

They weren't coke addled but there was a lad in his 30s sitting behind me at the Everton game with who I assumed was his dad. They were in the old BCB seats and they were as negative as **** all through the first half. Apparently Reinaldo was **** and shouldn't have been in the pitch! They were winding be up massively so I started answered then back without turning around.

After half time the dad came out and asked if there was any subs on, we told them there wasn't and his reply was that Reggie was thick as **** and should've made changes.

Yes we were **** in that first half but the perfect response was Xhaka scoring the equaliser! I turned around to him and asked if he thought Reggie was still ****! After a bit of umming and aghhing he thought that Reggie was doing a good job but we weren't at the races in the first half. For dinner reason he and his son shut the **** up after that - although they did nick off when it was announced that there would be be at least 6 mins after on

Walked out of Everton away going back about 15 years now because a bloke a couple of rows down and a few seats across, one of our own fans, was repeatedly screaming the worst kind of abuse at Sessegnon when he misplaced a pass.

No one else. Just Sess and people said nothing.

I have no problem with stewards getting involved over racism. I think it's good.

Has there been any confirmation as to what part of the stadium this is? I always find there is often more the the fury in a story that meets the eye. If this is in the family zone, then fair play....

No idea mate but, to me, that's all irrelevant.

It's an enclosed space where things can be heard around the entire ground.

But, ffs, will anything ever be said in a football ground that won't be heard on the internet, in the city or anywhere else?

If people step out of line then, please, report it to the police/stewards/club, but don't make out that some words, someone says, are so hurtful that a human being can't tolerate it without having a heart attack and dying on the spot.

Are we really so weak that we can't hear a swear word without having palpitations?

How would these people have coped in the yards, the mines and the factories ffs <doh>
