    Yes, true

    Just as every news story has to mention “ mental health” and contain the word “ amazing” as many times as possible

    They know the player won't retaliate physically and probably see it as easy pickings. Coventry have acted fast but surely they should have given all his details to the police also, so they could take swift action against the offender if proven.

    It looks like Stoke are pushing for more action, good of them and rightly so, in order to bring this disgraceful behaviour to an end.

    I've never heard anyone or read about anyone booing the kick it out campaign and it's been going for much longer

    Although now you mention it didn't someone abuse a Cambridge fan at the away end as caught on a twitter clip. Although nothing seemed to happen afterwards

    Then introduce brainless drunk fans at football matches who take exception to the taking of the knee and this sh*t is going to happen.
    Or brainless drunk fans at football matches that can't respect a minutes silence. UTM
