[Football] Brentford (and Arsenal) supporters take a bow

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Worth making a special point regardless of whether mentioned in another thread. Arsenal's young England player, Bakayo Saka got a standing ovation from all four stands when he came on as a sub. Two fingers to the racists who trolled him after the world cup exit.

There was also a big Bee’s Fans Against Racism banner

You missed out Spuds fans who did the same foe him last weekend.

My old boss, who was the reason I left my job, is an Arsenal supporter and would instantly turn on the black players after a poor result. Some of the language he used was beyond disgusting. It's a shame I can't name and shame the fat, useless, racist prick on here or name the company so everyone could take it turns shitting through their letterbox.

So happy Saka came out to that response, he must've been dreading it after the last couple of months. Awful thing to go through.

I wonder if it will stretch to homophobia They like a bit of the gay chanting shite there.

Hmmm l fear that if people did start ******** through his letterbox, then that would reduce them to his level.

But yes, l take your point otherwise.

Sounds like quite a bit of whistling and booing?!

Worst ground for homohobia back in the 1990s in my experience definitely. Hopefully they're a bit more enlightened these days.

There was some booing but quickly drowned out by standing ovation, a few boos with his 1st few touches too although very few but still audible!

 

[Doc Lynam]

Wonder if Saka would have got a similar reception in Burnley

Wonder if Saka would have got a similar reception in Burnley ��

Or the NSC Bear pit ?

Good to see the reaction from the vast majority of fans

The majority of fans are decent people, sadly it's the minority almost everywhere that ruin it.

Saw a Twitter feed showing Leeds fans in Manchester singing " Rashford and Sancho let England down "... Pricks.

Wasn’t the booing just for an opposition player coming on, standard football fan’s reaction (for some) rather than something more sinister?

I bet the Leeds fans are all happy bunnies tonight.
