Awful, but the odd throw-away comment can be heard most games from where I'm sitting.

Or its all complete rubbish and response to the club stewards being formally complaint against for their actions to fans across all 4 stands.
Do not just believe the spin issued from PR |
*edit*
Here they are! | |

so there might actually have been fewer incidents but, given the rise in awareness and concern, more people reporting each one. we have no way of knowing. equally we don't know how those reporting these incidents define abuse (the abuse button on here sometimes seems to be pressed for the most inexplicable of reasons). |
Yep, it could mean that Ipswich fans are getting more bigoted, but equally it could mean exactly the opposite, that Town fans are calling it out more. |  |

No-one's said that. They've said it's on the rise. Surely better to nip it in the bud now, rather than wait till it's like Leeds in the early 80's surely? |
Ipswich is never going to be like Leeds in the early 80s ... massive over reaction |  |

In all seriousness though, this probably means that more people are reporting issues, rather than the issues themselves increasing.
I regularly hear people near me make comments which are homophobic (not chanting to be clear), just, y'know..."get up you massive ...", "f**k off you ...." etc. Comments and looks are exchanged, but it's not always easy to place who said it. Hopefully these things are being called out formally.
For instance, someone shouted "you're playing like a f**king girl" last week, and was shut down immediately by the women to his left.
People are naive to think this doesn't happen at PR. You hear this sort of crap all the time at the pub, on the train etc. Just casual comments, which are just as damaging.
It's being called out? Good. I don't see the problem or any reason for people to be upset about it. [Post edited 21 Feb 2020 9:44]

it hasn't announced an increase in that type of chanting, it's announced an increase in the number of reports. it's really not the same thing. |  |

to be fair, up until sunday, the 'playing like a f**king girl' comment would clearly have been a compliment. | |

I was saying it is a massive over reaction to suggest that Portman Road 2020 is on the way to becoming like Elland Road circa 1980. | |

A lack of tolerance of this kind of bullsh1t is WHY we have that reputation.
