Main stand racism = swept under the carpet
Young fans abuse = ban

RIP Barrow AFC

1 person being racist in the stand once. Reckon that is an isolated incident.

Young fans at the partition looking for trouble every home game. Throwing smoke bombs and a FIREWORK. The club have to take action

So you’re allowing racism in the ground as long as it’s only the odd person now and again. Wow.

You need to go find yourself a new club that is not on.

And what was the outcome of the Main Stand Racism that the Colchester manager reported.

Let's be 100% clear.
NO ONE WAS RACIST IN THE MAIN STAND.
I wasent going to post on here for a long time as the bell ends have appeared once again. But this needs clearing up right now.....It never happened !!!!!

[HenneysKnee]

Haven’t we been here once before? Some people felt the comment made wasn’t racist, it was just banter etc etc; plenty others could see why the Colchester manager thought it was
And whichever side of that argument you sit on, you can guarantee if it was a young lad he’d have been vilified on here and from the club themselves

TBH….as much as I would back the club over most things, they’ve actually caused this racism incident to rumble on when a simple statement off them reporting back on the outcome would’ve put it to bed once and for all. For those of you still wanting to believe it happened - it really did not. This should’ve been done & dusted when the police closed their investigation, NOT because of a lack of evidence but because it never happened.

Regarding being searched, it happens all over, I personally don’t have a problem with it….because I have nothing to hide. If you want club success you have to accept the changes that brings along.

Great post RE the incident that never happened and regarding being searched I couldn’t agree more and 99% of those that attend Holker street week in week out I’m certain would too

Thank god only a minority of our fan base read this forum, I`ve asked many supporters over the years if they read the forum and the same answer is NO, might have looked but it`s the same people slagging the Club off time after time and it`s not getting any better, will say again it will drive away the board.

If only a minority of fans read this forum, I am sure the board will realise that and not be driven away!

Yes they were.
Racial Stereotyping.

So if that were the case why have the police not taken it further? Why have the club not banned the gentleman? If you are so sure it was racist, have you asked the police why they haven’t taken action against him?

Anyway, I (and others) know the outcome was correct, the only disappointing thing was no statement was made from the club or police, if that had been me I wouldn’t have been happy till both had issued a full statement saying exactly what the outcome of the investigations had been.

Thats the last I’ll post on this as it’ll just rumble on & on.

Has anyone applauding the club actually SEEN any abuse from the banned individuals?

If they (the banned) are the people that posted abusive tweets as the awards were announced on Twitter then yes, I have seen them.

I saw the tweet and replies regarding the awards night directed at AH (the club had to delete the post), constructive criticism is one thing, this was far from it, just plane nasty from individuals hiding behind a phone screen. The BoD get constructive criticism at every qna and give clear detailed responses.
