Pretty much every goal we concede is a weak one.

Imho, by making this public  the trolls know they have got to their target and upset them, which is exactly what they want.
Unless online abuse is a threat of violence, I really do think the best way to deal with it is to accept there's a few sad cnuts out there, ignore it and move on.
 
 

So far all I've seen is one tweet, and somebody already mentioned it here, it was some random troll account with a footballer avatar with v13 or something at the end of his name, so clearly gets banned a lot. And he used a racial slur against Tammy Abraham, that seems to be the tweet that's surfacing around. Why even pay that so much attention? Tammy wouldn't have been none the wiser of some random loser on the internet trying to get attention, but now he's going to think there are actually a lot of our fans that hate him because he's black and that he's missed a penalty. 

I really can't buy into this media hysteria, if it were chants that would be something else entirely, but this is just one idiot (or maybe several) that have said some racist comments, we don't know who they are, what they are or if they're even Chelsea supporters. Now we've got headlnes everywhere, KickItOut taking action and Macus Rashford giving Tammy support, which is nice yes, but I really think it would be better in this case to just not give this person attention. 

That's not to say ignore racism, but I hope people can agree with me on this case that we just ignore trolls like this, it's really counter productive.

Maybe I'm being ignorant here, but it looks like they only look for stuff like this when it's our team, because racism and Chelsea is a narrative now. There aren't even any sources just one former striker who said "why is Tammy getting racist abuse", so on Twitter? I'm sure if you go on Twitter you can find racist abuse against anybody from any team. 

To me it seems like the media are making a mountain out of a molehill, a few stupid trolls are not the fanbase. 

I''m a white man in England .
If you read what in said a previous post my comments about South Africa had nothing to do with immigration. It was calling  out the racist violence and murder of white people in that country and a political party that wants to rid South Africa of white people, either by force or by genocide. Yes, the South African whites treatment of blacks was appalling, but two wrongs don't make a right. I was against apartheid and the old regime, but I'm equally against what's happening there now. 
My original  points were about showing it's not just some white people being nasty and racist.There are vile, nasty, racist black people around the world doing terrible things and that black people are not the poor, innocent victims the biased, left wing media portray them to be.
As for me being racist. I could give a rats ass what you and others on here think about me.  I know how I have always treated people. 
 
Oh, and by the way. My family has mixed race people in it. So you can jolly well go and f**k yourself!
 
 

I have a family member in Sweden and says there some very bad things happening in some places due to aspects of immigration. He says you ignore them yet have to be very careful not to mention it in 'polite circles,' it is career threatening.

"people with privilege" This is typical clown world SJW talk, mate you're not a victim just because you're black. You have been taught to see the world as white people as the oppressors and your just this lowly black man trying to get by.
People of all sorts of different backgrounds, white, black, brown, asian whatever grow up with challenges in their life independent of their race. Britain is one of the most open and tolerant Societies in the world you cannot argue that, otherwise your ancestors would of not moved to it. 
Basically your equation is white man shout at black man = racist, no matter the circumstance it is always racist in your book. Do you see yourself as that weak and sensitive?

i am a black chelsea supporter, and it is a difficult subject to get into really. 
It feels like a bit of a PR exercise in my opinion. The 5 other fans that received a 1-2 year suspension, have been punished for acting like fans do all over the country. Im not saying its right or wrong to aggresively shout at a player like that, but it is no more than what goes on in every game up and down the country. 
With regards to the alleged racism. While i do find it slightly strange that he would call him a manc c**t anyway, (would anyone up north refer to barkley as Cockney just because he plays for a london club?),  The guy has been cleared by police, in what was a high profile investigation, how the club can then come to a different conclusion sits uneasily with me, as it did with JT. 
I get @Brutos point, racist language doesnt necessarily need to be used in racist behaviour, but there is no way of knowing whether the aggression shown towards sterling was racially aggrevated. That is hardest thing about stopping racism. As a society we can do our best to stop racist language, and discrimination, but we cant punish peoples thoughts, and we cant attach racism to every white guy that is aggresive towards a black guy. 
The club have used this opportunity to make example, its good PR for the club, and we are trying to stop racism in club. The only person who knows whether they are right or wrong though, is the man involved. 

What we're witnessing here is very sad. There are people such as Brutos who can't see (or refuse to see) that when a white man sacks a black football manager (for example) it may not have anything to do with race, it may just be (for example) that the team's results aren't any good. Similarly, they can't see that when a white fan screams at a black player, it may not have anything to do with race, and it may just be because passions run high and the player in question plays for a rival or has just kicked one of our players up in the air. In other words, you can sack a white manager or scream at a white player but you can't do the same to a black person (if you're white) or else you're a racist, and if you oppose this view you must be a racist yourself or an apologist for racism or simply in denial, as Brutos has claimed.
 
Sadly this is the world we live in. Victimhood is rife and so is stupidity.
 
 

I agree and that's why I made the point. There is a certain irony in someone pleading guilty to something they did not do and being treated more kindly as a result. Although, on closer examination our legal system encourages such things because those who plead guilty get lighter sanctions. 

SJW propaganda, nothing to concern yourself with.
