Wrexham fan, 21, is handed a three-year football banning order for 'racist' abuse over shouting 'English b*****ds' at rival Tranmere supporters

A Wrexham fan has been banned from attending matches for three years

This comes after they admitted to calling Tranmere fans 'English b*****ds'

Daniel Thomas Monk, 21, admitted a racially aggravated public order offence in Wrexham Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.

The incident occurred on the day of Wrexham's League Two clash against Tranmere on March 16 - a game which had been deemed 'high risk' by police after 30 hooligans were jailed following high-scale disorder at a game between the two clubs in 2003.

The court heard that Monk approached a group of Tranmere fans being escorted towards the stadium by police and shouted 'dirty Scouse b*****ds'.

He followed that up by returning with a group of men and yelling 'dirty English b*****ds'.

The insults were picked up by body cameras worn by the police, and Monk was arrested at the scene.

Monk has now been banned from matches for three years and been ordered to pay a £768 fine.

Alex McKenzie, who defended Monk in court, said his client is 'genuinely very sorry' for his 'out of character' behaviour.

She also claimed similar insults were hurled by the wider group that Monk was with, and that rival fans made abusive remarks as well.

If that's the way this is going then it's going to get very quiet very fast around the Welsh grounds, for both sides.

Can we now be done for calling ourselves 'sheep lovers'...?

[GrangeEndStar]

Wayne Nash must be rubbing his hands this week. First the Scottish "hate crime" law to suppress free speech and now the opportunity to ban the entire CCS for anti England songs in response to being called sheep shaggers.

I'm tempted to call the "Report It" number that's written on the back of every other seat when those beastly Hull fans racially profile us on the weekend with their despicable racist songs that cause offence to us all.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. WokeEndStar.

Not a fan of those who shout “WOKE” at everything.

But this falls into the woke category. Ridiculous.

We sang the usual “same old English..” etc at Coventry, are they going to ban all 1700 of us?

[snoopystorm]

It’s beyond a joke, maybe we should all start using the text system in the stadium to report all the racial slurs we get week after week

[rumpo kid]

Very worrying that the CPS even took this on. Something is badly wrong in this country.

Exactly, Ned. This story is as 'woke' as it gets and gives the real 'issues' less space to gain the credence they deserve...

Same here Ned.

I got accused of being Woke when I questioned someone's support for our historic culture and we should be proud of it. So I said what about the Slave Trade?

It seems to me you question our history and you are accused of being Woke.

Another incident at Coventry a few seasons ago we had just beat them with a last minute Bothroyd goal. We were all gathering outside the away end when some oldish chap shouted across the car part "Welsh gits". Next thing of of us big ones walked over to him and said" I'm Welsh what do you mean by that". You should have seen the old git backtrack. Now that was funny.

[Underhill1927]

If true this is a sad indictment on today’s society. People too scared to say anything. Really bad.

[Daibush]

How can this be classed as “raciist” abuse ?
The English are not a race of people - they are a nationality - as are we as Welsh.
Any offence committed here has been wrongly described - possibly even by the judiciary.

[Abergavenny]

I am hoping that there is more to it than that. If not we really have got ourselves in this country in to a very sad state of affairs indeed

Sorry sven didn't see this, it's been a long week already haha

Crazy world we live in now that it's a ban for shouting banter.

I guess there won't be fans left the amount that gets shouted at cardiff fans

[Welsh Exile]

I just had to check if this was posted on Monday

As it wasn’t then 3 years and a £700 fine is a bit much, are they saying that the body cams of police officers at games never pick anything else up that can be classed the same ??

It's okay, Kyle; it happens from time to time...!

[Liles93]

Not sure if it's 'woke' so much as pressure from two high profile Hollywood owners taking an overly protective stance for their reputations and collective brand.

Not sure about that; McIlhenny is about to do a drug-induced Olympics with his film team...!
