Erm racism isn’t a joke but white crackers can’t seem to help themselves. The mayonnaise is heavy at the end of the day if your team lost. Focus that energy on the manager not black players uneducated white racist bigots. CRAZY CRACKERS YOU KNOW YOURSELF

Like that will make a difference ...... Waste of time

Quite a powerful date. This day in 1943 the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising started. This indescribable terrifying event was also a result of racial abuse. Never again!

Will anybody notice ?

24 hours? Meaningless and effortless “protest”, much like the fines given to clubs with racist fans. Make it 24 days and it’s worth taking notice. Talking of: should not your own (and other media’s coverage) of this story include “short” or “24-hours” in the headline?

That’s an incitement to racism surely!

No one will notice. They don't interact anyway.

Will you boycott social media to protest racist abuse?

From parks to Premier League: the shocking scale of racism in English footballA special investigation into the racism crisis uncovers anger, despair and a warning that there will be ‘an explosion’ unless the problem is tackled There are 3 count them 3 Labour antiSemite candidates running for office in Devon. Less than 100 years ago there was a Holocaust which wiped out over 50 million European Jews. Stop diverting attention from the real issue here... What will take for this cancer to be finally addressed, the physical attack of a player? This is a real risk at grass roots level. I remember as a child the level of racism that black footballers had to endure. Regis, Cunningham, Anderson et al frequently had practically the whole ground making monkey chants and throwing bananas. I thought these days were past but clearly not.
