Racist shouting in lower SBR stand 09:03 - Jan 16 with 6982 viewsMartus

I had a clearly drunk "fan" near me on Saturday shouting some despicable things at Plymouth's black players and just shouting foul language the whole time . Absolutely shocked by some of the things he was saying - told his mate next to him to have a word with him. As i said this his mate then shouts the "N" word and you could see those around him were clearly uncomfortable with him and shocked and a few of us around him told him what we thought of that.

I went to a steward at half time to report it and she was very good and told me it would be handled and thanked me for reporting it. But, they waited to full time to pull him aside. Rather disappointed with that as the fans around him - especially the elderly couple in-front of him, were clearly uncomfortable with him.

Hope he is banned for life - couldn't believe what i was hearing.

I wondered what he was referring to. Not a good look for us:


who operates the electronic scoreboard ? as someone pointed out ,at the end it show us losing 2 1

I didn't like the abuse aimed at Mumba which came from Cobbold U2 more generally.

The reason for this is that he is a Norwich player but it didn't look right to me.

I suppose I just don't like players of any colour being abused, but abuse of black players brings back bad memories and could itself be construed as slightly racist.

In any event, it backfired because Mumba scored the equaliser.

He was called various things, but he doesn’t once remotely mention racist abuse.

Any opposition player is fair game, colour shouldn’t mean people don’t give them some ffs

We've got a government that has empowered this stuff to come back, every fanbase will have turds like this bobbing about now thinking they can air such things.

Surprised at the full time part to be honest, understand it in some ways but it's disappointing he wasn't taken out and arrested.

With so many abusing him, who's to say there weren't a few who went a bit further?

But as I made clear in my post, I don't think opposition players are fair game for abuse, whatever their race.

In any event, it doesn't seem to fit with our EFL Family Club of the Year award.

Yes, I was in that section and that guy was insane. He couldn't muster any energy to actually support our players when they were near him and, as you said, it backfired on us anyway. I thought he was going to have a coranry at one point.

Well he has a point, giving Mumba as much abuse when he has hardly played for Norwich was a bit much. It's not like he was actually playing for them or has history with us.

A bit of a reminder that Norwich are still well above us really.
