Do we need to call out members of our fan base. I have seen some quite horrific things both on Facebook, gaschat, twitter etc recently from Rovers fans. That comment by Del Wiltshire whoever he is yesterday was enough for me and people justifying criminal offences
Anything that is racist, homophobic, sexist etc needs to be called out on. Let's stamp it out together and create a fanbase we can all be proud of again. UTG!

What does this entail? You suggest calling and stamping, and I'm happy to call 'wally' and stamp, my feet, I suppose, but your campaign may need more purpose than this.

I agree, culling this sort of online behaviour is something which fans can easily get involved with - it only takes a few seconds to report perpetrators on Facebook, Twitter etc. The same with forums, and, whilst the social media giants don't always act as swiftly as we would like, I think it's fair to say that the forums are well served with moderators who look at anything that's reported. Small steps can gradually make a big difference! |

There is a forum user of that name, so is that person racist? |

As he allegedly kicked and stamped her on the floor, the attempt at humour in the thread title could be changed too?

Blimey this is the woke brigade at its worse. On whose authority do the people on this board have to "control" peoples behaviour. I have supported Rovers since 68 and watching them now, even in the crap hole of the Mem is 100 times safer and better than it was at any time in our past. The suggestion that anyone who swears should be reported, well you will be very busy come the first home games. As for social media, you can chose to read it or not.

You didn't actually mention anything specific, so I've no idea what you are talking about. But in the last few days the bar for what constitutes 'vile' on here does appear to have been lowered, considerably, so I'll reserve outrage for the minute. |

Shoveler has denied being germanygas, and I think we should accept that he`s being truthful. Of course, it`s entirely possible that Shoveler is germanygas without even realising it, in which case he isn`t a liar, but he does have a serious personality disorder.

According to GGMI, germanygas is a multiple account holding Gaschat guerrilla and supporter of GGMI. Why he would associate this unsavoury character with a friendly internet duck, I cannot say.
