theneutral, it is pretty obvious you are a rovers fan, also, the way you talked about your "wife" sort of really gave the game away.

Well they did sit idly by and it was clearly more than four or five. You couldn't hear four or five so clearly on the footage. Its clearly more than a dozen, mayby twenty and obviously someone heard them and seeing as how they weren't ejected, those around them SAID NOTHING!
As for your not giving two hoots whether I think you are a rovers fan or not, thats beside the point because you clearly are and the evidence is there in your language, not because you don't agree with me but your timing on arriving on the forum, the thread you arrived on, your language and the fact in your first post as "the neutral" you said it was your first post in a while. So you were by your own admission here before as a different user. Banned were you? Or were you just observing the boycott?
What happened at the Rovers Bohs match should never happen again. It was wrong. But forgive us for being sceptical of the Bohs hysteria on this. You only have to go into the jokes section on gypoweb to see a range of Racist Homophobic Sexist jokes. Some of which are by Bohs fans you personally and other Bohs posters here know. So lets see the letters to SARI and the media on this. All racism is wrong not just when its done by people you dont like. You must show consistency even when it doesnt suit to show that you really are serious about it
My you are the paranoid one, could it not be that my interest in seeing this game and it importance brought me to it, i sat in the away section (hardly the actions of a Rovers fan?) Had a rotten experience with sectarian abuse and.....actually why am i explaining this to you? At this hour!
Everythings been said already, u should be able to see the point ive tried to make to you and if you cant well than im done anyway, run away with it!
On a jokes section?? Clearly anybody that posts in a thread tilted jokes is a dirty racist anti homo, they include the foreign fans on their and the one or two gay people. There is a thread on here full of jokes, i believe you could find some ones that you dont like there as well.
If you dont think that a joke that calls Lenny Henry a spade is racist you need to have a look at yourself.
Where did i say that? You rovers fans love to twist things, nice to see you all end the boycott! I wouldn't take what i read in a joke section seriously, i don't even know who Lenny Henry is. Granted though, some jokes which are in bad taste are not be to laughed at.
and the Rovers fans have rounded their initial estimate down from a dozen to four or five.
Listening to the video it is CLEARLY more than that. I would say 20 would be a fair estimate.
Either way, its unacceptable and deserves a fine from the powers that be. It also warrants a response from the club and a commitment to ridding the club support of this element. Neither of which has been forthcoming to date. If i see that statement from the club i will say fair play and let it lie.
And if it was any other clubs fans i would feel the same and would be as vocal. But its Rovers and the sad fact is its not the first time a section of their support (somewhere between 3-20) has racially abused Joey Ndo..
That's enough of that I think. A suprisingly good run before we descended into unsubstantiated allegations and nonsense. I choose to take that as a positive. :)
