How low can a support go?


Recommended Posts

Falkirk have apologised to Dean Shiels after the Dunfermline Athletic midfielder had fake eyeballs thrown at him during Tuesday's Championship game.

Bairns players Joe McKee and Kevin O'Hara remain suspended after being found guilty of taunting the midfielder in October over the loss of an eye.

Shiels, 32, was abused by Falkirk fans in the Pars' 2-0 victory on Tuesday.

"Falkirk FC apologises unreservedly for the abhorrent behaviour of a small number of individuals," the club said.

"The club wholeheartedly condemns the abuse witnessed towards Dean Shiels in the strongest terms and will be working closely with Dunfermline Athletic FC to identify those responsible.

"Abuse towards anyone with a disability is simply unacceptable and the fact this took place with a sporting context with rivalries at play is no excuse.

"This needs to stop now. We will look to action against anyone identified from today's game and will not allow this disgraceful behaviour to be repeated."

Falkirk could face fresh disciplinary action, with the Scottish Professional Football League responsible for crowd behaviour. The governing body will review the match delegate's report before considering what action to take.


Cunts should be named and shamed and receive lifetime football banning orders. The police should  be invistigating this too, but won't hold my breath. Too busy charging supporters for singing 'offensive" songs.

Have the D. A players. been charged by the police yet? There is clear video evidence availiable.

Think we need to get our own house in order in terms of songbook before having a go at other clubs. 

 

Songbooks weren't mentioned. Rather than show empathy for Dean or disgust at a disabled person being publicly humiliated you go down the offensive song tangent and try to score points against your own (allegedly) support?
