I’ve been going to Hillsborough for over 40 years and I’ve never thought we’re a racist group of supporters and i personally think saying that we’ve got a massive problem is simply wrong. I’ve always felt we’ve backed every player of whatever colour or race and supported them while they wear the shirt., and also respected other players of colours that have represented their clubs, I highlight Dion Dublins reception for his last game as a pro. Every club has its undesirables and football does strange things to certain individuals, not always good.
The behaviour often crosses the line like it did last Saturday which was absolutely deplorable but I refuse to accept that we’re a racist bunch of supporters and we have a problem, as far as football supporters go I think we’re a pretty decent bunch and it annoys me that just a handful of ill educated individuals tars us all with the same brush.
Sorry if I’ve upset a few of you but I’m proud of my club and 99% of us are decent folk
