The actions of this moron on Saturday is unacceptable and a life ban and criminal prosecution is needed. However the actions on Saturday in no way excuse Dunfermline’s racist vermin either and it’s ridiculous to try to link the two. Ah, racist top trumps. A few of our fans are total scum who gave out racist abuse. A few equals less than 0.5% of our fanbase if we base it on season ticket holders alone. They deserve life time bans. So it isn't in the slightest bit sad to say our support is racist. Our support quite clearly isn't racist unless you think that <0.5% is somehow a majority. It would be like saying your support is racist when in actual fact it was a few folk who shouted the racist stuff. Your support quite clearly isn't racist either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stenhousemuir and Falkirk fans were sitting together. Why was this incident not being talked about in hospitality or in the wee bar after the game? Did no-one there actually hear this? I mean, look at the indignation, and quite rightly too, being shown here tonight. Yeah, I know what you're saying. I'm curious to see where this goes. Sounds like the only way this can be progressed is by someone from the crowd coming forward. Is that likely if, as you say, it wasn't brought up after the game amongst fabs? I don't know. I didn't think they'd find the eyeball throwers either mind you and they did, so we'll see. Hopefully there's witnesses willing to confirm or deny the complaint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your support quite clearly isn't racist either.Unfortunately, whether we like it or not Dunfermline or Falkirk, as soon as this stuff gets into the media we are all implicated as racists. It’s time these people were dealt with less leniently and shamed publicly by the same media.I’ve been following the club for over 30 years and the overwhelming vast majority are passionate for our club to succeed. Rarely have I experienced anything significantly untoward. Yet the occasional moron destroys our public reputation.

I have heard nothing at games, or read anything online, that would warrant that sort of public statement. An absolute disgrace. I'm properly seething about this. More I think about that statement more annoyed I get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe either support is racist but is merely let down by a minority of c***s who let down everyone by association. How you can say it's ridiculous to link the two is beyond me. As for the idiots saying "I didn't hear anything" as if that's in some way relevant, dear me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your point is the Dunfermline support *is* racist but the Falkirk support is *not* racist? If not, I have no idea what you are talking about, so please explain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMbairn Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I don't think it helps anyone in our fight to survive. This incident is clearly unacceptable. The boards statement worryingly insinuates this is a pattern of ongoing abuse when it should be focusing on one knuckle dragging arsehole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughsie Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) Have the club contacted the police about the abuse players and staff have been receiving? Edit to add: I’m talking about the second part of the statement here, not Dennon Lewis. Edited November 26, 2018 by Hughsie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Absolutely pish poor behaviour and let’s hope someone comes forward with the names of whoever was invoked and they get the banning they deserve.There’s so much to have a go at Dennon Lewis about. He’s one of the worst footballers I’ve ever seen and his performance on Saturday was absolutely pathetic. Absolutely no need to bring his skin colour into it.As for that statement GTF. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is sort of relevant as the club is asking fans in that area to finger the culprits. If several boys who has tickets for the main stand at different areas of it heard nothing it makes it less likely that there will be anyone coming forward. Don't think anyone is saying it can't have happened because they didn't hear it. There'll be a lot more to come out here I think. I don't understand why it hasn't been reported to the police either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite clearly what's being insinuated both on here and other social media. Myself/my mates Bob and Fred(who'd obviously hear every word said in a full stand) didn't hear a peep so it can't have happened.
