Racism in the Gaa

[superscott]

just wondering if any of you have witnessed it at any games?

think it will rear its ugly head soon in the gaa with all the new irish growing up and playing at adult levels.can just imagine some of the big ignorant farmers up here abusing people ,nothing against farmers youghly.

Sean Og O'hAilpin has come in for a bit of it, but very little thankfully.

ah yes,are we talking kilkenny?

 

[TonyCork80]

Probably wouldn't single them out. Most of the shite I heard thrown at the man was from the Blah's to be honest.

 

[superscott]

hope no one up here let the side down,but iam sure some ape let us down

Didn't Sean Og have hastle with some Clare lads in the 90's with racist remarks?

I have heard supporters from Tipp Kilkenny and Waterford shouting racial abuse at Sean Og.

 

[CORKBHOY]

I remember the Echo running a story years ago about Sean Og getting racial abuse from the crowd when playing against Doheny's.

Heard it from Waterford crowd in Thurles re Sean Og, they were pissed alright , but inexcusable. Irish people are very stupid when it comes to things they say , not sure if the fully mean it but still . In my mind everyone is the same , only their behaviour affects me.

Yep Anthony Daly and his mates racially abused him in a championship game in Thurles, late 90's I think.
