Seamus Coleman receives racist abuse on Twitter from Everton 'fans'

[Elong]

Basically I think I've just read that it's Seamus's own fault he's subject to racial abuse from his own "fans" because he makes mistakes. Baffled.

I'm surprised were so surprised.

Or something.

No errors in the world account for the racist abuse he got, that's bollocks in my opinion.

Agree but some of those comments were not even racist, just people calling him ****e, ive read worse on forums.

twitter- twa**er, tomayto-tomarto, just idiots with a smart phone, the world, sad to say, is full of them

and the scary bit is.... they all have exactly the same vote as you ( well some of you, given the voting restrictions for Lunatics etc )

Where did this Cotto character come from? He seems to have registered just to give Coleman stick. Almost every one of his posts is about him.

Very strange.

BTW, if ever a thread needed burning it's this one.

I thought Coleman was good on Saturday. Stupid challenge for the penno and might have done better for the header but the tackle he made just before their 2nd goal was the best I've ever seen. MOTD only showed his two mistakes, he played well other than that. If anyone deserved singling out on Saturday it was Felli. He sulked all 2nd half and looked like he couldn't be hooped.

The term ‘race’ applies to ‘a group of persons related by common descent or heredity. So yes, Dutch, Irish, Scottish etc are all races, and calling someone a ‘Irish prick’ is every bit as racist as calling someone a ‘black prick’ or an ‘African prick’. People can argue against this all they want, but that’s the case at the end of the day.

Some of the comments were out of order, but I’d say it comes with the territory when a ‘celebratory’ opens a Twitter account. But the reason such comments were made is because Coleman is a CRAP DEFENDER, the sooner people realise this the better.

He's the Irish Cafu you just can't see it.
