Of course you are free to voice your opinions in the chat section of an open forum, but I feel those opinions are deeply ignorant and lacking understanding of the situation. You are confusing taunts from the terraces with racist abuse.
Did you hear the monkey noises coming from the Serbian crowd?, there was real hatred in them, not ribbing. The noises are disparaging of an entire race, calling them animals and not fit to be human beings. This is wrong and should not be allowed to continue and the players ignoring it and keeping quiet is not the solution, although i fear that this is what Uefa/Fifa are hoping will happen.
Danny Rose handled himself in about a restrained manner as could be expected in that situation. All in all England did the right thing and carried on and won the match, good on them.
By your other posts Phil I take it you will be at the match at the weekend, do you think it would be ok to abuse the black players then? No.
The Tyne/Wear derby has one of the most fierce and hostile atmospheres in football, will there be racist abuse? No. It is wrong and what the Serb crowd did was wrong. They should be banned.
I never said you were not allowed to post your views, I think they are wrong though and have said so.
I did not have a go at you either, as you have said it is a forum for discussion.
To Charton, don't apologise for highlighting an important issue.
there will be racisim from fans u will never rule it out its wrong yes very wrong but u will never ever stop it the serbs are known for it fifa will never throw them out ever so we need to ignore it they dont just do it to english teams yet we make a massive thing over it so they have won i go to alot of football and rugby matches prefer rugby but watch my club and and national footbal. sice the jhon terry inccident which i wont get into its a massive thing yet how many times has a black man insulted white people and nothing happens things are said to provoke a reaction or heat of the moment i very much doubt the serbs doing the monkey chants are natzis i could br wrong my veiw on the matter is our footballers should not react to it thats why there pros its my opinion right or wrong it wont change on this matter
