Well I was in the North stand as usual today and did not see or hear of trouble.

Seems some did though from a few posts I have read on here and the Fax site. I think antagonising or assaulting away fans is stupid not to mention wrong. I am not talking about having light hearted banter of course but the to read that we have fellow Leythers racially abusing players too is not good reading.

After the behaviour of a couple of idiotic Haven fans last week it surprises me this has not been sorted at our own place.Had it have happened near me I would definately have expressed my dissapproval. Let us stamp this out now. It is shamefull.

Quite right!! There is no place for that kind of behaviour - especially at a club like ours, who have welcomed, and taken to our hearts so many players of different creed, colour, or country of origin!!

Read the quote in my signature - something that says it all!!

If anyone witnessed any of these alledged incidents they are duty bound to report what they have seen/heard to the club. If it is true that stewards turned a blind eye to this type of behaviour, then that also needs investigating!

Where is Dave when you want him, he was very scathing about Haven stewards last week and commended himself and his fellows for the good job they do. It seems not all are toeing the party line.
Glass houses?

If racism is thriving on the Leigh terraces then it needs sorting while it is happening, not after it has been reported.

Unfortunately the LSV stewards are not trained, equiped or have the numbers to evict several fans at one time. What I would suggest is they are given flip cameras to record any bad behavour and pass it on. The other thing is that the lads are from Leigh and are probably known to the idiots doing the wrongs so the stewards are already on a looser. Don't like hearing crap like this about our club, we are Leythers not scumbags. Root them out and ban them for life. Two bits of bad news today this and the result. Good job I've spent the day at beachside bar in Alcuida.
Come On You Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeigh.

You don't need to evict them all at once, pull out the one or two making the most noise and chuck them out. Repeat until the lesson is learned.

So who holds off the idiots mates when the you are evicting said idiot? Our stewards are not upto this job and should have the police to back them up when needed. In todays enviroment scum who do these things have very little respect for the police so do you think they will heed a steward? Film them and ban them.

one or two muppets making racist comment is hardly thriving racism.
all team have their idiots following them, its up to the fans who witnessed it to name and shame them.

I didn't see or hear anything untoward, but I sincerely hope that it's a one-off - this club is far better than that.

Tell me - how DO you deal with it? What can you do? If you start walking up to them and try to eject them what happens if they try and resist? What happens if you send a few coppers in there? It could escalate. I think clubs bury their head in the sand hoping it will go away. Fax had a similar problem last year with bottle throwers. I don't think the club did anything to stamp it out - it just disappeared this year (not sure if other fans put a stop to it).

There isn't an easy solution without giving these pricks the attention they crave.

Get whoever is responsible identified, get them watched on the CCTV and take criminal proceedings if necessary.

I was in the North Stand adjacent to the West and heard nothing, however to our fellow Leythers any sort of this behaviour is wholly unacceptable .

We stood behind the sticks in the North stand and there were was an elderly bloke slagging the team off from the off till the end, in the end we all told him if hedidnt want to to support "his" team or go home, he was disgraceful, we dont need speccies like him
