Leinster Racist Fans ?
Wasps Fans Forum DrunkenWaspafans.com has a thread accusing Leinster Fans in The IPA Green Terrace of making monkey chants whenever Christian Wade touched the ball.
I was in the terrace and I am genuinely upset by that anti Irish rhetoric. They was no racist chanting just as there never is at Leinster games
Maybe others who were there would post on the Wasps site expressing our outrage at such lies
Why am I not surprised ?

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
This was already discussed tbh. He's probably just a troll.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
A very similar post appeared after the Munster-quins game too. Munster fans falling about the place drunk while making monkey chants at black players. it was followed by the usual racist slurs. Ignore it, don't open a tread about it.

And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!

Hold on! We don't ignore it until we prove it false. Once we do, we nail the troll who perpetrated it. Then we ignore it....! To be fair, the match thread fairly well did that already.blockhead wrote:A very similar post appeared after the Munster-quins game too.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
How would ya do that A-boy? How could you possibly prove that a poster is lying? Shouldn't the burden of proof be on the accuser? I will ignore all such claims until there is proof or reasonable evidence to back it up.artaneboy wrote:Hold on! We don't ignore it until we prove it false.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
I feel disgusted by some of the comments on that thread.

I hear the 2013/14 supporters gear is pretty snazzy.

The odds are good but the goods are odd.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
The posters who believe this to be true have been called out on the site, by fellow Wasps fans, as clearly having misheard/making up absoloute BS. Their fans are doing a good job of self-policing. Don't see the need to get involved.
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
Leinster should be a team of white Leinster-born devout Irish Catholics. Foreigners are not welcome at our house. Immigration is a problem. We don't accept people from outside the 12 counties. Nor do we tolerate Protestants, Jews or people of another faiths. Boggers not from Offaly or Laois should go home. We don't like Asians, Africans, people of mixed race and those of Latino descent. Homosexuals are also forbidden. Nor anyone who looks weird. We also don't tolerate anyone who doesn't have a southside or quasi southside accent.
My two favourite players, by the way, are Isa Nacewa from Navan and Mike Ross from Malahide.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
Up here in Ulster we went through a bout of that, in a London Irish match Delon Armitage said Matt McCullough made racist remarks, went to a hearing and Matt was cleared, their coach made similar claims about the fans, never was substantiated either, then Aled Brew made similar claims about fans when we shouted "dodgy, dodgy kicker" at him after he sliced a kick, work out yourself what he thought we said, they had complained to league and put in press but when confronted by Ulster backed down.
If it's just on a forum then it's probably a troll, if it goes to press Leinster need to confront the issue to either clear the supporters or if true ban them from ticket purchase. In future, pretty near impossible to do but at least make the gesture.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
Is calling Delon Armitage "a focking w&%ker of the highest order " racist? If so, I may have a problem.

Re: Leinster Racist Fans ?
Didn't happen that way though did it. Even Nick Kennedy himself testified that it wasnt a gouge.tackle-bag wrote:London Irish, taking time out of their busy schedule of making up claims of gouging against Shane Jennings.
