They certainly have
Send one yourself , just making the club aware of your concerns about this chanting will make a difference , and it already has
Of course others will just mouth off , as they always do
The apple never falls far from the tree 🌳

Get your teacher to help you send one

There’s a spot vacant on 8 out of 10 Cats going now poor old Sean has passed. Go for for it, you could end up a comic legend

Yeah, that is an important point.

Being ever so slightly pedantic, it’s two points
This is what the club should be doing. Leadership from the very core to say such a horrible chant shouldn't happen, explain why and make sure everyone knows where they can get support if they need it.Jürgen Klopp met with @LFC_LGBT this week to discuss the incident of homophobic chanting at Norwich City.
The pair discuss the impact of such chants on LGBT+ supporters, why they should not occur again, and the importance of inclusivity.

Absolutely
The club have a diversity statement and say you can contact them regarding abusive chanting
You can also text the club on match days
For now they , the police and supporters groups are aware of the chanting and it is on the agenda for a forthcoming meeting
Its up to everyone to get rid of fans like this
But where do they go if they're booted away from football? Surely better to have football there for them but clear that the behaviour needs to be rid of.
It’s not about about getting rid of these fans over what they chant - how many are we left with then?
They are our fans at the end of the day who turn out, who are trying to create some atmosphere - it’s just a case of poor song choices and they are not a lost cause.
I am all for that if it could be achieved
The club making regular announcements , leafletting fans at the stadium etc
But what if that doesn't work ?
Abusive chanting is a criminal offence . Should we just allow it to continue , tell people off ?
Its about 2 or 300 idiots
To be fair I think singing songs about child abuse and labelling it as a poor choice is letting people off lightly . We are talking people in their thirties plus singing this . I hope the club are intending getting tough with these fans and making it clear its not acceptable. If that can be achieved , great . How many chances do we give them though ?
It's or they're?E

100% agree. It starts with asking them to stop, not slinging them out. I believe in trying to educate and reform not strong-arm tactics. You’re right, they are not lost causes.
Get rid of fans? Who the **** do you think you are?
Yes do what you can to stop them and educate them but get off your high horse because your in no position to dictate who can or can't attend a game.
While I don't agree with everything Sludge has said I do think more should be done to counter-act this chant and Sludge has come up with some good ideas.
Who is going to ask them ?
If someone is in the canton end on Saturday and is say 21 and some bloke , a big lump in his thirties starts singing this do you think he should tell him to stop ?
Its not easy to confront abusive behaviour
Would you do it ?
I don't want racists and idiots breaking the law following my club
If someone is chanting racist abuse , singing songs about Harold Shipman or child abuse in our stadium or away from home I want them dealt with .
What if educating people about these songs doesn't work
You think we should just shrug our shoulders ?
Only banter etc ?
I would personally ban them from matches and if the police took people to court and they were convicted then the club would Definitely ban them
Are you saying they are not causing alarm and distress by their actions and are NOT breaking the law ?
Because they are
The points on the embarrassing song have been made pretty well in this thread…. maybe a little repetitive but but hey ho…better to read it 200 times than not at all.
I noticed that someone pointed out Sludge’s objectification of women in the past, although I’ve not noticed it recently, which is a good thing for me, as I found that pretty creepy.
Have you banished that Sludge?
Here you go stan

Cardiff City does not tolerate discrimination , abuse , foul language or anti social behaviour
The statement asks fans to report behaviour to the club via text and its clear they will prosecute in partnership with the police
Clearly the chanting at Blackpool and Peterborough is unlawful and if someone gets a ban for singing songs about child abuse I couldn't care less
Football fans can be such idiots , howling for stiffer sentences for robbers , druggies etc yet when one of our lot breaks the law we should have a chat with em .
Yes Sludge, I would. It doesn't have to be aggressive. It doesn't have to be confrontational. There are many ways of speaking to people. But it does start with personal responsibility. The club needs to take action too, and as surge has said, you've come up with some great ideas but I don't agree with banning as the first line of action.
I agree, someone in their 20s in the example you gave would be in a very difficult position and I wouldn't suggest they did.
I don't know if making about stories about Betty at number 23 or sexiest teacher at secondary school is against the law but if it is I think you should text the club , pronto
Fair enough mate 👌👍
