That wasn't banter cmonstanley, the best of it is the tannoy announced about the stop racism that it wont be tollerated & it wasn't followed up upon till it was brought to their attention, also the sick death chant thing wasn't banter either - banter is football humour - trust me there was no humour in that!!
All i can say is im glad yesterday wasn't my 1st visit to a stanley match or i would of been a bit put off indeed, i know the stanley support until recently has been impeccable with humour & the best support i've seen - thats what makes me go, without need to resort to the offensive or bad taste! Im even more glad my kids were not with me i think they would of been rather upset certainly during that player being knocked out but even more so the thought & suggestion of death!!
Swearing is part of the game & is expected certainly when tentions are high - the ref is usually a banker LOL, the T&C ing maybe too far tho near little ears!
