Exactly and thanks to social media we'll all be tarred with the same brush! Why do the press love putting out negative stories all the time? It's so [beep]ing depressing!

'A small section of home fans are understood to have made monkey noises and racist comments throughout the home side's 29-17 win.....Despite stewards being aware of the abuse during the first half it continued during the second period.' - The Times suggests it was more than 'a moment of madness.' |

But that's not what the witnesses who have come forward are claiming! what happened and what the press say happened - two different things.

There seem to be conflicting stories floating about whether the incident was made known to stewards at the time or not. IF a steward(s) was aware of the incident and didn't act then that is a serious issue that needs to be raised. I have found myself wondering on a few occasions, particularly this season, if Safestyle are up to the job. There was the streaker who was completely ignored by stewards, and an incident in the enclosure earlier on in the season where stewards were made aware of abusive behaviour and no real action was taken. At least when that idiot ran on the pitch in the La Rochelle match he was pursued by stewards.

I was at the game , had 3 kids with me. I heard no racist noises but a bit of bad language (nothing too shocking)
Especially considering the pressure on the game and the amount of drink taken, by any means) a few people were dropping the odd f bombs. While not pleasant these things do happen and I explained to the kids that people say stupid things in the heat of the game All clubs have fans who misbehave at times but as a rule our fans are excellent , noisy and passionate but not yobs. I agree with every one else here any one making racist or indeed overly abusive comments should be slung out and banned But hand on heart it is not a major problem at PYS (or on here for that matter) I have no issues taking the kids to the games and will continue to do so

Shame the Western Mail aren't as quick to moderate the comments on their stories on their website as quick as they were to put the story up about this incident.
There's some pretty disgusting comments on there around the Folau story, some of them have been there for 16/17 hours.

I guess that as expected, it was a load of nonsense.

Perhaps we should now put this issue to one side and hope it doesn't rear its ugly head again.

The club were always unlikely to renounce publicly the results because it just puts them back in the news with negative connotations (again).
I do know some of the pitch invaders have had bans.

How do they exactly enforce a ban? Whats to stop that persons friend buying 2 x tickets under his own name, address etc and just walking in again?
