Would love to know an exact breakdown of those numbers and what exactly the offences were. Can imagine a few were directed towards our League Cup Final opponents and I've seen that type of chanting drop quite a bit except for during one chant.

At least it shows we're taking action. Would much rather the club focussed on taking action against these people then people who 'persistently stand' during matches.

It's a point I was going to raise but didn't want to be writing a mini essay in my initial response. 

Obviously there is no love loss between us and our North London friends and we do have one or two chants that are now seen as antisemitic and by extension racist. I know there was a big crack down on these chants by the club in recent years, especially when the two side meet and it may be a factor in our higher arrest numbers. 

 
just sent him one of these tweet things, let's see if he blocks me as well.

He's just not a very well person, pretending to be well, i doubt he has got over his sex addiction, he is completely un- self aware, Now saying about how gazza is now on BT, and has multiple arrests, serial wife beater, plays the flute!

Well stan the fact is

1. your not a national icon loved by millions.

2. gazza knows he is unwell, but doesn't  go around pretending that he's squeaky clean, and start handing moral judgement  from on high, or try to be arbiter of everyone's moral conduct.

3. Gazza talks boll ocks, but mainly to himself when he is sh*tfaced on a park bench, you do it completely sober with no help from the sauce. to millions of people every week.

4. jesus loves you stan, but every one else thinks your a qunt!

Good point. Someone,people, famous connected to football, paid for Gazza to have treatment (can't remember who). Collymore has the funds for decent therapy.

There are people with real mental health issues who have neither the funds for therapy, nor the publicity to raise awareness they need help.

Poor Frank Bruno has been really unwell and to the best of my knowledge has kept to himself other than one documentary by his daughter.

Ruby Wax is another. I can't work out if she really wants to help people or she's using depression almost as a badge of honour to keep herself in the public eye.

 
He's destroying his career tweet by tweet, he's basically having a breakdown.

Superb.

If only you could convey that in 240 characters and tell him.

 
You can't use those police stats. As a foriegners who has traveled England pretty extensively let me assure you that not only is the police presence vastly higher in London, they are also far more likely to arrest and charge you over racial incidents or other civil right mandates. As a global tourist hub, London's Metro police services will have a mandate that's much stricter than most of Britain. So does that poll actually show which clubs have the most supporters engaging in racial abuse or just which clubs are in regions that police it more strictly with better police services? Not having looked at the poll myself I would wager a tenner that every single London club regularly in the BPL is sitting I the top half and likely crowding out the very top of that racism table. If so, ask again, are London folKS just racist as hell or is it just that you are far more likely to get caught engaging in such behaviour there? Plus I don't like this stuff because it the issue tribal when it should be uniting all football fans against racism regardless of club allegiance. All clubs are against it, it's only a tiny minority from each, so attacking each other for brig more or less racist kind of takes our eyes away from the actual issue, removing it completely.

 
I also enjoy the way Collymoore is destroying his own odious career. There's a definite irony to it for me. The phrase "live by the sword and die by he sword" comes to mind. Want to make your career off poisonous inflammatory statements then don't be surprised when said statements become the cause for the death of your career.
