  1. With regard to not doing enough to stamp it out, that is sometimes easier said than done when it is one individual shouting something. I know one of the people who heard it on Saturday, but on a packed terrace they were unable to identify exactly who the perpetrator was. I guess that those stood immediately around him/her would have known, but maybe they were mates who shared the same mindset? With group racist chanting (which we obviously don't want) it is easier to identify those involved via cc tv at a later date, and take action. Hopefully stewards will be told to be more aware, and there may be more self-policing from fans, as a lot of decent people are angry that this has reared it's head yet again.
  2. The abuse came from individual people, and was reported by Rovers fans. I think FA punishments are given for larger scale obscene chanting, which is reported by the referee, or another FA official at the game - not even sure they ever actually punished a club for racial chanting, they are an impotent authority at times. There is no place for it on the terraces, or elsewhere, and I hope that the culprits are identified and suitably punished.
  3. I wouldn't devalue the word "victim" by attributing it to something as trivial as being on the wrong end of an admin error. I'm not aware that anybody was harmed or killed because a couple of loan signings were ineligible to play.
  4. Of course we have an unsavoury element within our support, same as 99% of clubs, anybody who denies it is in cloud cuckoo land.
  5. The admin error was by Stoke, nothing we could do about it.
  6. Yeah - as long as there's a (tent) roof over my head, I'll be there!
  7. No idea where we go from here - maybe put up another tent and refurb Santa's Grotto?
  8. I think that KITR may have alluded to the supposed cash issues in the past?
  9. Unfortunately we all have 'em - although very much in the minority, they've usually got the loudest mouths.
  10. I heard it was Cannon & Ball - apparently they've diversified.
  11. I do look at Companies House info and am registered to be notified of any changes, but I didn't find the things which Port Said Red mentioned specifically, that's why I asked for a pointer! I have seen the charge taken out by Dwayne Sports, but it seems I have to take out a different registration to see the more detailed stuff - thanks to Port Said Red for the sensible, informative response!
  12. Being a total idiot with financial dealings, a couple of basic questions if you would be so kind as to enlighten me. How do you find out that they have not filed the info with HMRC? Where is the info regarding Dwane Sports having a parent company, and where can you see the info about their bank borrowings and spending? Not doubting you at all, I'd just like to know how to keep track of these things myself! Cheers.
  13. More likely to put a "wanted" ad on Freegle.
  14. If you can't laugh at yourself, then how can you laugh at anybody else? Life's too short not to see the funny side at your own expense sometimes.
  15. It's his Testamonial Year this season - made a good contribution to football in Bristol.
  16. Higgs does still attend home games, often seen him bulldozing his way into the post-match traffic queues outside The Mem.
  17. It's more likely that the passengers on the mini buses will have metal bars!
  18. Hope you've got enough oxygen up there on the moral high ground.
  19. They've written the article based on a Tweet from a bloke who is a total joke, and knows **** all about what's going on. Millwall game will probably be carnage all round whatever happens, quite a few travelling down for a Saturday night in Bristol I believe.
  20. Those scrotes would probably run from Bouncer the dog.
  21. There were a couple of groups of Stone Island clad oiks about before and after the game. I reckon they were giving it one last big 'un before going into hiding. They would crap themselves if they came within 20 feet of any real Millwall fans in a couple of weeks time.
  22. No - usually a Saturday for the lower divisions, horse punching is against the law on Sundays.
