Well that’s your opinion. My opinion is they shouldn’t. Haven’t you ever heard of people having a different opinion ?. |  |

Yes, which is why I posted mine in response to yours. I didn’t try to shut down yours. What would you do if you were Captain and your players suffered monkey chants ? |  | |  |

This ^ They should have one chance, if they don't sort it ban them from further competitions. That might get their authorities to pull their racist fingers from their racist @rses. |  | |  |

| Wales prepared to walk off the pitch on 22:24 - Oct 7 with 654 views | majorraglan | The bottom line is that FIFA or UEFA should deal with the problem, shut the ground down, make them play behind closed doors and prevent games being televised in the country. The loss of advertising and commercial income for the particular association would soon drive the message home. |  | |  |

I’d say also deduct points in multiples of 3 for every incident. If you get 6 eg you miss a qualifying tournament. |  | |  |

| Wales prepared to walk off the pitch on 19:10 - Oct 7 by ReslovenSwan1 | Why? There are already protocols in place. The FAW should take their own recording team and report any incidences as evidence. Swansea city in my view does not appear to criticise the on going abuse of Welsh families with the so called odious sheep banter. I do not accept being racially abused by anyone anywhere. (while being conscious of my own personal safety). Outside football there have been at least two cases which have seen convictions. |
You think that sheep noises are racist and should be punished but that if a player is racially abused they should just get on with it? That doesn't match up. Regardless of my thoughts on sheep noises, if any player gets genuinely racist abuse the whole team should leave the pitch in support. At any ground, I don't care if we're 5 nil up, if any fan shouts racism at our players I hope the whole team walks off in protest. We can talk about it until the cows come home but the times always come when it needs actions not words. |  |

In my view and under any logical assessment they are the same and should be treated in the same way. I personally believe in strict protocols. If Czech fans behave in a racist manner persistently the protocol kick in with announcements and warnings. This could lead to empty stadium games and fines. I would like to see the stadium emptied and restarted empty if need be after a 2 hour delay. If this means playing late into the night then so be it. If the fans refuse to leave the game is given to the abused team 3-0 and abandoned. This should be applied at the Swansea.com stadium as well and at Luton. At Luton the abuse was from one individual and persistent. He would easily be identified. The match is stopped the perpetrator identified and arrested. |  |

Comparing sheep noises directed at the Welsh and racist abuse towards people of colour doemonstrates why this problem isn't going to go away for a long time. |  | |  |

| Wales prepared to walk off the pitch on 10:05 - Oct 8 with 525 views | KeithHaynes | The issue now is if Wales ‘don't’ walk off the pitch ... 8th Oct 2021 09:00Swansea City led the way last season with a social media lockdown in response to numerous players at the club being abused and victimised by cowardly posts on all mediums of the Internet. The story went worldwide, bar of course certain media who chose not to report it, and now Robert Page is stating his Wales side will walk off the pitch if the same treatment occurs tonight in Prague. 1 |  |

We have fans of colour so God help them they get it in stereo . Nobody is forcing anyone to love other skin colours simply not act out of pure hate that is meant to intimidate |  |

Just in case its passed over your head but ,and correct me if I'm wrong ,its been left to the "authorities " and nothing tangible has happened, so you're you happy to continue leaving it to those whose responsibility is to deal with it but have shown on too many occasions they can't or won't. |  |
