There was a “Racism and Homophobia will not be tolerated” announcement on the Tanoy. Was it us or them?
"I am told by the club there were two isolated incidents reported to stewards at the time. The club official said it was not anti-English chanting, they said it was for racist and homophobic chanting." from a BBC reporter.
Either Reading are covering their asses or something happened. Reading will have to show receipts, though.
so loads going around...
we have sang our usual renditions of "sheep shaggin barstuds we know who we are" and "you jack barstuds",,,
could be that they missheard jack for black ?
but what it got to do with jack black i dont know
The word "Jack" sounds like "black". Why they have to sing that is beyond me.
Never ever heard one utterance of racial abuse at a Cardiff away game , I dont got to them all but I have been to enough.
The u jack bastards chant is often misread by home fans as racist
However if any city fans were racially abusing opposing fans or players then I hope they are banned
I understand that the "racist or homophobic" chanting #CardiffCity fans were warned for, was merely the standard anti-England stuff. So to me, curious it was flagged up at all.

Apparently there were two isolated incidents. It’s being investigated. Don’t know anything more.
Just got out of the ground.
Heard nothing racist or homophobic at all.
If it was for anti English chanting then I hope that Cardiff lodge a complaint against anti welsh chanting as well.
I've heard racist shit down the City, One bloke shouting rag head at raheem sterling and i've heard Black c**** a couple of times although that's spread over 10 seasons. I had words with the bloke who was abusing sterling, he wanted to fight me. TLG pulled some racist city fans some years back at Charlton.
Firstly nothing to do with today.
I am going to put myself up to be shot at here .
So , in a stadium with 80,000 people in it ,one wanker decides to use racism to vent his vitriol
Next week in a 50,000 stadium another wanker repeats this .
Does that mean the whole country is racist ?
If a section of supporters chant something racist , identify them , ban them but dont make out every supporters is racist .
I know what you mean, it could be interpreted as City fans being racist or a group being racist. Personally, i don't mind the announcement, it makes people aware that some wanker is shouting racist, Homophobic shit. The majority who aren't racist would probably be ok with it.
if it was 1 or 2 isolated incidents pointed out by stewards then deal with the 1 or 2 individuals not tell the whole of the away fans off for chanting...
I don't think that we were chanting racist shit, that doesn't happen anymore in this country, it's the isolated stuff that's still kicking about, especially in games where we take a large away following and people have been on the piss. The homophobic stuff is still prevalent, blokes shouting poof at players who go down etc although it is isolated.
