mizer Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Craig Brown last night warned Aberdeen supporters that any hate campaign against new skipper Richard Foster could see them dragged into court. The Dons boss believes the details of proposed new anti-sectarian laws need clarified after his defender, who spent six months on loan at Rangers last season, was barracked during Wednesday night's 2-1 friendly defeat to Bochum in Germany. Two fans have been identified by the club for hurling foulmouthed abuse at the player with shouts of, "f*** o** back to Ibrox, you Hun" being clearly heard before Foster was involved in several ugly spats with the supporters. But Brown believes the police could be watching at Pittodrie after the question over what constitutes a hate-crime becomes an issue weeks before the season begins. The historic bad blood between Rangers and Aberdeen did little to help Foster ease back into action with the Dons boss insisting any ill-feeling is harboured among only a minority of the support. And Brown has urged fans to get behind Foster just as they did for their hero and former Rangers player Sir Alex Ferguson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 My understanding of the word "HUN" is that it is not a sectarian term 1. a member of a warlike Asiatic nomadic people who invaded and ravaged Europe in the 4th -5th centuries. 2. informal , derogatory a German (especially during the First and Second World Wars). (the Hun)Germans collectively. I have Rangers supporting work colleagues that regularily refer to themselves as the Huns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capitalsharpie Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 it would be feckin tragic if the laws that have been toughened to purge a predominately old firm problem were used against us to use as an example. However, the club had better watch and not alienate a support already fed up with the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superstar Tradesman Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Yeah, Pittodrie is the first place the police need to be targeting for the new anti-sectarian laws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bland_flabbis Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Got to admire the creativity of journalists in Scotland. No quotes, presumably nothing to write about, so just make something up that's vaguely topical. They didn't even need to hack into anyone's phone.
