PipoIsABairn Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Interesting that it was supposed to be fans who couldn't stand that were in the main stand. Last season at EEP there was a heavy set older lad with a walking stick behind me who, several times, shouted racist abuse at Pars players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May then have been a spoken, as opposed to shouted, comment that was heard and reported by one individual. Would also explain why there aren't a lot of folk claiming that they heard it. If that's the case then the seat that the offender was sitting on and subsequently his or her name should be fairly easily identified. Might be difficult to prove under those circumstances though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope that the club would’ve been able to deal with that far more discretely if that was the case. If it’s one individual commenting to another who then passed that on to the club, the person should have pointed the person out with the individual being banned. I don’t see how that would have escalated to the very public fall out we’re seeing now. The club’s statement insinuates fairly strongly that it’s a group of individuals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be completely surprised if the club haven't fucked up their statement mind you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dennon didn't actually hear it for himself and is going by someone's say so it looks to me like the club have jumped the gun. Just a thought! No doubt I'll be the new Alf Garnett for this post. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believe The Hype Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Surely whoever reported it, Lewis or not, can point out where and when they heard/seen this take place and the club should be able to find out who it was was pretty easily given the size of the stand, the number of fans in that stand and the fact it was narrowed down to a Falkirk fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't actually mention it at all in your posts - no doubt hoping that your hypocrisy would disappear and allow you to yammer about what's coming to those whose fanbases aren't massive racists. Fooling absolutely no-one then. Stone throwing in glass houses missus. Best you be careful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, when winter conditions cause difficulties, distress and even death for the elderly, it tends not to do so on racist terms, therefore your post is and of itself, deepy offensive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdiBairn Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) Rumours circulating that the individual(s) involved has been identified and police are now investigating. I hope he feels the full weight of the law and should certainly never be welcome back at a Falkirk game. Hopefully it will also shut up some of the conspiracy theorists.

Hiya Calum! Hiya Pal! Its entirely plausible for Dennon to have heard it but not reported it.
