I know there is already a thread on Sol Campbell, but I think this deserves a separate thread.
I've been looking up these chants that fans sometimes sing - some of them are well and truely sick. Whether it be about someone's mental state, the Munich air crash, Heysel, Hillsbrough etc.
As we are all aware, there was a big thing made recently about one ECFC 'fan' making racist noises at an away game. The club (rightfully) came down hard on this, and it was widely condemned, even by fans from different parts of the country.
This got me thinking - why do we not hear about these chants from the bigger sides as much, when they seem to happen almost every week? Is it covered up by the media because no one dares touch the Prem clubs? Or is it brushed aside by the clubs? If anything anywhere near as bad as the Sol Campbell chant reached the Big Bank, I personally would be outraged, as would I'm sure most of the region.
