One of the news articles is that the club is investigating homophobic chanting and gonna ban anyone identified singing it at yesterday’s match.
What has football become. A few poxy chants. Fuck me. Pathetic

The ‘proud terriers’ have apologised on every single Town fans behalf. So that’s okay.

Well tbf it was rainbow weekend. And homophobic chanting from the riverside lower could be heard on several occasions throughout the game.
'Going down on your boyfriend' 'Town full of faggots' etc. I imagine the FA will give us a big fine and have a field day with yesterday's game. Still waiting for them to charge Wagner or write to him to explain his post match comments etc etc.

I no the chants ain’t in particularly good taste but it was hardly constant or hateful was it. I just think it’s embarrasing you can potentially give someone a ban for something like that.

Its on at all clubs to promote it being o.k. to be Gay etc in Football. Our captain wore a rainbow armband. These fans who sang this were an embarrassment. www.skysports.com/football/news/11740/11569698/huddersfield-to-investigate-alleged-homophobic-chanting-during-brighton-match

Depends if you class homophobia the same as racism, sexism etc. I doubt anyone would start a racist chant and think it was acceptable. And just because its not hateful and just done for a laugh does that make it anymore acceptable? I suppose it's a good/bold stance to take if we want to progress like we have done with racism and sexism and it not be acceptable part of society to make a laugh and a joke out of someone for being gay.

No one will get banned or i’ll have about 3 blocks to myself if they do.
If they can’t identify who threw stuff at James McClean I doubt they’ll identify anyone for this.

No call for it. No difference between that and racist chanting. The culprits do not represent the football club and should be sanctioned accordingly.

Brighton being investigated for anti royalist chanting ?
“Going down with the Palace” implies they are part of some kind of anti estashbilshment terrorist cell that is going to overthrow the royal family....off with their heads.
Since when has chanting effectively, “You’re gonna get some sexual action with your partner” ever been “phobic”?! Sounds more like a chant of appreciation and encouragement to me.

Who cares, some on here might say they do for show, i dont indulge in homophobic chanting and i never would, but i really couldnt give a damn and neither could most others if they`re honest.

Why does that particular "community" need a weekend? Its society going over the top to show how politically correct we all are. When is straight weekend out of interest?

One chant in 90 minutes and the PC brigade are up in arms. I maybe should get out more, but I’ve never heard that before and to be honest I thought it was quite amusing. Nothing personal, nothing nasty, just an instant response-in-kind to the “down with the Palace” chant. If anybody gets banned for that it’s an absolute joke.

Since when were rainbows gay anyway?
Who decided to associate the two?
When I think of rainbows I think of little Oirish leprechauns so I do
Does this mean that the little fellas are gay as well?
No doubt some fucktard somewhere will have me down as a racist homophobe for saying that

I think of Zippy, George, Bungle, Geoffrey, not to mention Rod, Jane and Freddy. Nothing remotely camp about that show.

No doubt some fucktard somewhere will have me down as a racist homophobe for saying that “A leprechaun is a type of fairy of the Aos Sí in Irish folklore” I think the first 7 words of that answers your question....

I sit in the south stand and this was completely tounge in cheek, if town want to be pathetic and ban everyone who chanted something along the lines of “you’re going down on your boyfriend” in retaliation to “your going down with the palace” then more fool them.

This country has gone mad, I neither support rainbow weekend or disagree with it, Frankly I couldn't care less, However I do object to the fact that it has to be a spectacle in the first place same as the pride weekends do heterosexual people have straight weekends and matches to celebrate heterosexuals no we don't same as MOBO awards is that not disgriminating against white musicians. We are supposed to live in a country of free speech but we are far from it, You should be allowed to say and do what you want without having to pussy foot around people just because they might take offence, Same goes for managers not slating a shite referring performance, why should they be punished for stating a point of view. Madness

The only time you hear them chants are against Brighton, no other time, leading me to think it's all in jest but I guess it's the same as racist chanting, no one would do that to be fair.
One thing I dislike about the match day down at Town since Hoyle has taken over us the sanitisation of what is a working class red blooded male pursuit, it's all too family orientated these days. Not saying we should be racist chanting or being homophobic but the way things are going they don't even want us swearing these days, which is bloody ridiculous.

If the gays want to be accepted they should stop shoving it in our faces willy nilly. 95 percent of the population dont have a issue. By having such weekends they are causing a issue. Let it go, we know your gay, we dont care, your the same as us. They want equality, then stop dividing us by parading about in knickers. Lgbt festivals are a utter disgrace, vile, crude and unneeded.

That maybe the case but I'll guarantee if we made flags for heterosexuals and had a parade for it and celebrated a whole match weekend in its cause LGBTG would be out in force claiming they feel victimised
