Dear Swans,
I’m a Wolves fan – I’m coming in peace and hoping you can help me out…
I’m a senior Lecturer at Birmingham City University, writing academic papers as part of my PhD portfolio (Koln University). My research has a focus on the language used by football fans at games – for some people it’s ‘banter’ and for others, it has become a ‘hate crime’. It is a complex, emotive issue and one in which Wolverhampton Wanderers have recently incurred a £100,000 fine from the FA, due to chants aimed at Chelsea fans during the Wolves vs Chelsea game earlier this year.
I want to find out what you think of the language used – I want you to be honest.
The questionnaire is entirely voluntary and completely anonymous. I will only use the data I obtain for academic papers and once complete I will share the data with you on this forum. I have ethical approval granted from Koln University.
I will be comparing your answers with those from supporters of Arsenal, Watford, Plymouth, Ipswich Chelsea, Brighton, Bolton, Cardiff and Newcastle.
The questionnaire should only take you a couple of minutes and I would like to thank you in advance. Here is the link:

Kind regards,

The abuse is almost always English unfortunately in my experience. When insulted some men laugh it off and some men do not. I doubt you were brave enough to to call them pathetic which you have don on a Welsh forum based in Wales.
The darts player Gerwyn Price is insulted continuously in the darts by drunks. I sympathise with him.
It should not happen in this day and age Sky sport turned the volume down so as the British public could not see how their underclasses behave. Sky sports went in hard on the Bulgarian FA officials who gave an apology. No action on the darts Gerwyn call himself "G" should not have a feisty attitude. He told the crowd of 4000 they were 'pathetic'. Brave man and patriot. |
If the abuse is almost always from English what does that tell you?
Are black people only accused of being monkeys by one particular nation?
Sky should not accept the sheep chants against Gerwyn price, (and only him) fair point, but it's comparable at all. | | | |
