Wonder if someone shouting his surname among the foul mouthed abuse has been misinterpreted as racist abuse (unless there was deliberate mispronunciation of his name). Not that abusive language is much better.aylesburyos wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2019 11:04 am It happened at the West Stand North end at the end of the match. I was right by it. Did not hear any racist language but certainly he was abused your'e f***in s*** etc Blackman reacted & stormed over confronting the fans saying I will kill you. I then saw a black lady (maybe his Mum though quite young maybe 40) arguing with O's fans too. Think she came from the Southend end but not sure. Couple of Police at that end but did nothing. Not sure as per that tweet if it carried on when the Southend players came out & carried on prior to leaving on their coach
Looking at their results that could have been Sarfend's fans "Shouting you're f**King s**t" at them.aylesburyos wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2019 11:04 am It happened at the West Stand North end at the end of the match.

That's what I was thinking as well. If this happened then I seriously doubt it came from the regular fans . Probably people who just came along on the night to see Southend in particular .
Stop kidding yourself. We have always had a small core of ageing right wing/BNP hoolies and there is a growing number of little dickheads who are following in their racist footsteps.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2019 1:14 pmThat's what I was thinking as well.
