Do you actually read other posts on a thread?
It's a silly question, because if you did read other posts you would find the answer.

Okay.
Let me just get my loud hailer and call them all into a meeting to discuss it.
While we are waiting maybe you can tell us what all the gays and transgenders are thinking about at your end.

I did read your responses and they're constantly half answered responses hence why I put a 'yes or no?' in my question.
It seems you fail to have the will to accept you're wrong. Every answer comes with a justifiable reason why your fans have made it harder for black players to report racial abuse. You're comparing what you did on Saturday to booing a ref!?
You've stated that the abuse on saturday wasn't worth it but you'll fight it? Erh? Why don't you just accept your fans were wrong and you hope you'll not do it again? Why turn this into some sort of race war?
What's with the 'we were wrong but we didn't do anything wrong' excuses mixed with pretending you don't understand why people all over the country are offended by your fans behaviour on Saturday? What about accusing the Albion fans of being racist? How does that work when your fans are so enraged by 'one of your own' being accused of racism?
Again its a fan group at your club you dont need a loud hailer you have a contact there. Albion have just announced their partnership with gay pride this year which is the biggest pride event in the UK and I can safely say they think you are homophobics.

All the ones I've asked just talked about how horrible it was growing up in Burnley. Brighton gave them a new lease of life and an opportunity to come out. By the looks of things, it does seem there's a fair few of your fans who have a phobia of homosexuality. I wonder why? Hhhhhmmmmmm.

We'll fight being called racists.
Understand it, cry about it or get mad about it.
Goodnight cocker.

Erh? but your fans are claiming we were being racist on Saturday?
Are you saying we should fight that (somehow) or are your fans just going to boo each other at your next match considering your hatred for accusing others of racial abuse?
Good night Mr Confusing. x

Not seen such Bravery!
I've obviously lost myself down this rabbit hole, but why is it claimed that we were racist ?

You're right, it isn't. However that doesn't mean you don't have a problem.You don't want to be labelled as racists and yet there has been no condemnation of your minority that booed a black player who had made a complaint of racism. Your minority self destructed on Saturday and you are better off without them. As an aside I very much doubt that Jay Rodriguez wants Burnley fans making an issue out of this when it had already been settled.
What exactly distinguishes a raving homophobic from your average run-of-the-mill homophobic?
To be honest, I am beginning to despair about some of your posts and defences of the booing of Gaetan Bong.
For the record, I don't actually think the booing in itself is a racist act. However you don't seem to be grasping the fact that it is intimidation. It is like saying ''How dare you as a black man call out a white man in (what you perceive to be your country) for making a racist comment or slur.
You are trying to intimidate Gaetan and anyone else who may wish to bring a similar charge in the future. If I am honest it takes you back to 1900s Southern States of the US where any black man or woman dared to speak out would be met by Public Hangings in order to dissuade anyone else ''stepping out of line''(so to speak).
You just don't seem to be grasping THIS particular point and for me that is sad because although your posts are full of ''shit '' they are fairly articulate and that suggests to me that even articulate human beings are not actually grasping the severity of booing Gaetan at the weekend.
Is that this Mr Confusing? Or another Mr Confusing?

Still going with a few then?
Let's face it, it's not the first time this has come up with Burnley, with the Andre Grey / Bradford incident referenced in a number of places. Nor is it the only place that black players are booed. There are well known right wing ultra groups across Europe. Cologne and Lazio spring to mind as do much of the Balkans and Eastern Europe / Russia. The difference is they are quite open, almost proud of it. Yet here we have a thread full of Burnley fans spinning like tops because, deep down, they know it's wrong. I'm actually not sure what's preferable.
As Chris Hughton rightly said it's shameful.

Without the raving you could imply they are rational.

Again your logic fails, you are defending the indefensible clearly not all fans joined in, just call out the ones that did. Simples.

If the culture of your club means that everyone has to conform to a nasty bigoted ‘normality’ for 90 minutes then perhaps there is something seriously wrong. Have a word with yourself and use you last sentence as a guide. BTW I was there and spent a nice few days in Burnley and met some really nice people, drank in your pubs and enjoyed myself, no problems.

So, Chris Hughton criticised the booing for the message it sends
The FA criticise the booing for the message it sends
Kick it Out criticise the booing for the message it sends.
But its ok, the people who did boo have told us why it was absolute fine.
As long as they are happy.
