Race is completely different to sexual preference... to be honest it's more offensive that you throw the two together as if abusing someone because of their origins is the same as taking the mickey out of somebody's personal life.

We've all said the abuse is wrong, but it is commonplace at all grounds, and for the RFL to single out Cas is both too easy and convenient

Quote: danny boy1 "It's an absolute disgrace that the club have to suffer for what a handful of mindless morons chant at a game, how on earth could they have stopped it? The club do tell supporters not to swear or abuse anyone, but unless they make supporters wear gags at every game, there's little that can be done.

I don't like to hear abusive chanting at games, but it goes on at every ground I've ever been to whether it's because a player is fat, thin, ginger, has big ears or a big nose or maybe has one eye, but why is it just because a player is gay, it's suddenly blown out of all proportion and a national media story.

I've also been told that such chants have been an issue at other grounds, but rather unsuprisingly nothing has come of them.

I hope you are happy Mr Thomas, you've certainly made a name for yourself in rugby league, but for all the wrong reasons and certainly not on the field of play, where you should have been doing your talking!!!!'"


what on earth are your two pathetic brain cells doing telling you to say that?!

I was applauding in agreement that the fine is ridiculous; in acknowledgement of the fact that chants aimed at players (whether right or wrong and simply from a small minority) are part and parcel of just about any spectator sport; that the club have been made an example of due to being one the RFL would rather see out of Super League; and that the club are fully justified in making an appeal.

It in no way means that I condone homophobic or racist chanting, which is unacceptable, in the same way as fattist and questioning of parentage remarks are. Incidentally the latter occur week in week out and nothing is ever said about them. As usual it's one rule for one, and a different rule for another.

Surely that's more the intention than the consequence Stu. We, and the RL world in general are being primed for our exclusion from SL....bit like the Tories bigging up the national deficit to soften everybody up for draconian budgeting.

Gotta love the knee jerk flavour of the month decision by the RFL. A complete over reaction on every level.

The fact is, whilst the chanting is pretty unacceptable, I've yet to attend a live sporting event with impeccable behaviour by every supporter or those chanting en mass. Quite how the club is expected to negate any chanting after it has taken place is baffling.

No doubt the ridiculous amounts of Sport England money thrown at the RFL to encourage some futile equality and diversity policy will have a major bearing on this God like decision.
