Whatever point you have to make can I am sure be made by not making a racist term yourself, shame on you!
Yes I will be reporting this piece you have written.
Before you have the nerve to reply to me, look up the definition of the term you used.term is usually a racial slur ]
Completely agree.

I meant singing it in the same context as going to Newcastle and singing you’re a small town in Sunderland.

Back to it, I thought we were excellent Tuesday night, played freely and confidently. We just wanted that extra pass all the time, until Rose came on and crashed the bar we looked a bit clueless in front of goal.
Support was fantastic!

As a parent this should be the very first song your child should be taught in their life. Let’s get our priorities in order here

Agreed, a couple of threads should be moved to the political forum

This issue is definitely Stags related.

Shame about the Bagdad, Pakistan and Tommy Robinson chants. These people really should try and spread their minds and horizons beyond South Normanton. The response of "that's just embarrassing" by the West Brom fans, was about as accurate as it gets. The best and worst of Mansfield tonight. Well done boys and well done to the majority of fans. COYS
Totally agree, ashamed to hear this raspberry, no wonder opposing fans think we're thick knuckle draggers
And that there is the very reason why we have 13:00 kick offs because of the small minority of “fans” behaving like that
They are a shambles, a little band of oldish teenagers, joined in their chants by a couple of old men who have never changed.
Engerland, Ingerland, was equally embarrassing....why do they do it?!
The support was fantastic, yet this term removed we have associated with us (particularly when Malvinder Singh Benning has loads of family and friends there supporting him and us in our support) continually shame our club. 'That's just embarrassing'....how apt.
On the playing side, fantastic stuff esp the last 20 minutes, how can they be so different to Sat?
An 18 year old Grimsby fan has been charged with racial abuse following their match on Saturday. He was reported to the authorities by fans of his own club who have supplied the evidence to support the charge.
That's how you stop it.

Looking back it was written in frustration at the behaviour of a few who shame us all but no excuse if you found it crossed the line.
You are right it was a crass comment, and hopefully this public apology will help. I am mortified that I came across in that way, and can say with some degree of certainty this will be my last post on here.
I'm not at all going off in a huff we are Mansfield Town fans with different views on many matters and it is quite a unique place or forum for strong views from either side on many topics , but my race is run on here. I have never wanted to offend anyone so a line is crossed for me.
Up the Stags I hope we can fulfill all our dreams this season!!!

Nice one Big Guy and Chimney... What mr grimsdale wrote may have offended you, but should it have lead to this? I dont consider the term he used racist or offensive. If hed have replaced the word 'white' with 'trailer' would that have still caused such offence?
