What chant would that be Ferocious?

Glad most recognise it's a minority that Wakefield are trying to deal with.
Different security team this year and tighter controls on tickets etc.

It's difficult to identify before it happens but we should be dealing with them after the fact, and as I understand it, the club have tried hard to do that.

I don't like getting a fine but it will make the rest of the supporters more likely to point out the issues

Quote: Terrace singer "What chant would that be Ferocious?'"

You saying you don't know? Disgusting chants about the VP fire tragedy. Man U perenially face the same sort of thing about the Munich tragedy. There are some real sickos about and always have been but ATEOTD nothing much has been done to stop that sort of disgusting behaviour, except some fine words.

This is sort of easy, but clubs (not just RL) back away from it. Advertise a (potentially) lifetime ban from all sports stadia for such behaviour. It would need the support of the courts as well, but following up with judiciary element and that could stamp out a lot of the unsavoury behaviour we sometimes see at sports events.

Just a thought.

If you think the police or judicial system, which the government is systematically dismantling, would even think about going to the extreme expense of positively identifying (say) 50 people in a crowd, then in each case building 50 prosecution cases that they felt could be proved beyond reasonable doubt, and then running 50 trials through the courts, all for singing songs (however vile) for which at best a slap on the wrist would be administered, you're dreaming. It's the sort of offence that a once-a-blue-moon occasional example is made but that's about it.

As for banning the 50 from grounds, dream on. The chances of your average turnstile operator positively ID-ing one of the 50 let alone refusing entry are about as close to zero as makes no difference.

Occasionally a sporting body might order a club to play behind closed doors for extreme racist chanting, but I can't imagine that ever happening in RL, and it doesn't identify let alone punish a single individual.
