Ban him for life and force him to go to the Swansea.com stadium to make a public apology to Latibeaudiere, on the pitch, just before kick off.
Ban the backwards twat for life
I like the last bit tooQuote:

There were some right arseholes near me for the Swansea game, jumped up the moment any Swansea player was anywhere near them and hurled vile abuse as loudly as they could. They looked mad,thick and coked up
You got to wonder what the hell is going on upstairs with these peopleQuote:

What do you want a ripple of applause when we score and everybody sat on their hands for the rest of the game.
It's a Derby it should be intimidating WITHOUT THE RACISM
Disagree about banning him for life. That’s how you potentially turn someone more bitter and hateful. At that point he’s got no reason to change his ways and become a better man, unless other posters don’t believe people can change? Ban him home and away for 3 years, name and shame him so his friends, family and colleagues can see what a tit he is and finally, if the Swansea player wants to, sit him down for a face to face apology and discussion of his actions.
What sort of message would it send out to others if they had a short ban for such behaviour? The length of ban needs to be strong enough to act as a deterrent.Quote:

I fail to see any relevance with a Covid lockdown for starters.Quote:

This was bad though, two of them had completely lost it, not great when there were women and kids nearby.Quote:

You clearly think the threat of a 3 year ban is as great as a lifetime ban. I don't. Let's agree to disagree.Quote:

I clicked the link, all I saw was "Swansea's 4-0 victory at Cardiff". I'd actually got that out of my mind.Quote:

It's up to the club how long he's banned but that's his problem . You cannot use a football ground to air that sort of shite .
For years I've thought that matches like Leeds, Swansea, Millwall and maybe Bristol City have attracted some who aren't interested in the more "mundane" games and don't bother turning up for them. My guess is that the person involved here could be one of them, so a ban may not have the effect on them that people believe it would. It still needs to be done though because anything less than that would send out all the wrong signals.
It's desperately sad that in this day and age and in a city like Cardiff people are still using racially abusive terms like this 😔Quote:

Have you seen the video and what he said ?Quote:

I have watched a better clip
That guy has supported cardiff home and away for years
What an idiot 🙄
I’d be curious to know how long of a ban people would want for fans caught:Quote:
