    Indeed , Coventry away was embarrassing, banging the coach windows at the Asian community as we neared the ground .

    I told the twats to shut up and reported it to the steward but nothing was done

    Is that racist? Part of being a little twat on the away bus banging the windows at home supporters and giving the V / wanker sign regardless of skin colour.

    Fair enough. I travelled a couple of times with the Rams where that type of behaviour was pretty normal. It’s like some people are let out for the day without their carer and go bananas.

    Definitely true. I remember some of the coaches pulling up and people literally falling out of the door they were so pissed. Not all, obviously, but imagine having to get in that much of a state travelling on a coach. **** me, that's a problem. They'd then proceed to **** it all up for the majority of decent fans because the police would change their attitude. It was a minority though....i think

    There you go then. I can assure you that in the 70’s and 80’s particularly but also into the 90’s, there was racist behaviour going on both inside and outside the grounds by City fans. Monkey noises, throwing bananas, chants of you black b****** at players, using the N word, shouting a derogatory German word for black person at individual players, gangs of City supporters wandering around away towns looking for Asian people to beat up etc. This was in addition to general levels of violence towards the police and away fans (and sometimes between themselves !). It was not a pleasant atmosphere at all and led me to stop going away eventually. A reputation like that takes a very long time to go away and it is no wonder that Black and Asian people especially are still reluctant to come along. It is totally different now thank god, due to work by the club, fans groups, Police and football authorities but there is still some work to be done obviously.

Thats how most fans start out. If ever I am away and tell someone I meet that I am a Cardiff City fan, invariably the first thing they say is along the lines of ‘you are one of those hooligans then are you’ or ‘had any good fights down there lately’ or ‘oh yes - that racist bunch’. Perhaps you don't think we ever had a hooligan or racist problem in the first place ? Perhaps you were part of that problem ? The longstanding reputation of our fans is definitely a problem and no sane person would ever dispute that.
    I don't think , given his background , TLG would be part of any racist element at cardiff city

    I could be wrong

    Hell No! He's actually been racially abused at Ninian Park and i was with him when he fronted 3 racist bullies at Charlton, big lads as well, but he didn't back down. He's no racist, he's actively against Racism.

    No, can’t say I ever heard that in a large scale chant. I do remember Cardiff fans chanting about the Bradford fire disaster which still remains one of the sickest chants I heard in a ground.

    Last game of the season a few years back at Valley Parade during a 2-0 defeat some numbnut near me started singing ‘Sing when you’re burning, you only sing when you’re burning’, I tore him off a right strip and so did a few others. The next day was a family day at Rick Wright’s Majestic Holiday Camp, I’m with my lot and guess who’s walking towards me? He turned away, in shame I hope, and changed direction, horrible, horrible thing to sing, shame on him.

    Yeah disgusting. I never understood fans who bait other fans using football disasters as bait. Trampled by a horse is another that disgusts me.

    I was living in Bradford at the time, the worst violence the city had ever seen according to the telegraph and argus in the days following the game .

    I went into Bradford interchange to meet a mate off the train from Leeds, couldn't get anywhere near it , cardiffs train lot turned up and it was carnage , a huge bloke came up to me and said get out of town , cardiff are here . I said I am cardiff . He said , stick with us we are going to sort Bradford and Leeds out so I said cheers mate but I have to go to the cashpoint .

    The Rams was the start of anyone travelling independently had to let the old ****ing bill know. My mates went to Norwich with them and they stopped off in Wooten Bassett on way home for a drink and the Rams end up smashing this vilage pub up and beat up a load of students / kids. They were a ****ing embarrassment.

    Some of them were a handful, to say the least. I couldn't understand that level of drinking. Sat on a stinking coach and getting mashed up. What a set up.

    Huddersfield away was bad news , the rams drank in Manchester and got the train over to Huddersfield with the coaches going to the ground to pick them up

    The police attacked the rams outside Huddersfield train station , totally uncalled for , marched them past Huddersfields main pub and several fans were injured

    After the game the rams had a right go at the police in revenge for what had gone on earlier , one copper was given a right hiding

    Not nice to see

    What utter bollox. Having a few morons who can’t hold their beer and use racist language is one thing, but suggesting Cardiff had a hooligan element who seeked out black or Asian supporters to dish out violence, im sorry but that’s utter, utter bollox.

    Some of the main players in the Soul Crew in the 80s and 90s were black lads.

    You go from denying it ever happened at all, to trying to make out that it was an isolated few and that there was no violence or racism involved. Well, I am telling you that I saw it and heard it and you admit that you weren't even following City at the time. Once again you think that only your opinion is valid and that you know everything. Well sorry to burst your bubble, you obviously aren't as clever as you think. You toddle along believing what you like. The longer people like you do that, the less likely it is that the problem will ever be fully and finally solved.
