Quote: RainbowWarrior "As a gay, disabled "grown man" I personally do care what is said both on and off the pitch, be it by players, fans or the mascot.
Society has moved on from the 80's where the "N" word was regularly thrown about, and whilst I'm not suggesting that word was said, other words can be just as harmful to minorities such as myself.

"Grown men" should be grown up enough to understand that.

Absolutely true. And you, me, anyone else should not be made to feel uncomfortable at a rugby game. Do you not think a large fine and some educational work we around language would be more productive all round though? I’m sure that would have resulted in an honest apology after realising what’s been said too?
