I thought the message was that hurling abuse in the face of a player wasn't acceptable. The 4 Chelsea guys were suspended whilst possible racism was investigated. Not sure if it now has been established. I haven't heard either way.
Abuse was directed at Fellani from a yard away by a fan. Are we now saying it's OK? How will we know if it's racist or not unless someone looks into the matter?
It's all just so unfair. Abuse was directed at Fellani from a yard away by a fan. Are we now saying it's OK? How will we know if it's racist or not unless someone looks into the matter?

It’s about racism. But let’s deflect. Abuse was directed at Fellani from a yard away by a fan. Are we now saying it's OK? How will we know if it's racist or not unless someone looks into the matter?

Forest fans now under investigation for chanting rent boys on Saturday
"Chelsea rent boys" has been chanted at us by every set of opposition fans, home and away, for 20 years. I cannot get overly excited by it. I'm all against ruling out any racist abuse and the kind of specific and targeted homophobic abuse Sol Campbell and Graham LeSaux used to receive. But it's going to be a hard job shutting down chants like "Chelsea rent boys".

Where did the rent boys chants come from ?But it's going to be a hard job shutting down chants like "Chelsea rent boys".
The Sol Campbell abuse he gets from Spurs fans I reckon is as nasty as it gets & it’s never going to stop ?

) .The chant was aimed at them, not the club or the fans. It's just stuck since then.I was at the game on Saturday and it was louder than usual but, as has been said before, it is sung at most games and does not bother me because it's just humour when you know the origin of it.
