I've been on this board for many years but tend to just read posts but if anyone wishes to report racism or homophobia THEY experienced IF they were at the ground.
The person who contacted me from Kick It Out is Samantha@kickitout.org
Personally I've heard the songs many times but thought I had gone back in time years on Saturday. I don't want to hear it from anyone and there is no justification.
"We're Racist and we don't care" and "Town full of Q..." was what I heard. I was one of 2,000 Albion fans and they were already well on the case before I sent my little bit at lunchtime today.
So help them make a difference and give them evidence to investigate Burnley.

PS I live in Manchester and have a few friends who are Burnley fans and educated... just to buck the stereotype.

When another black players gets abuse, will they think, I've got to report this. Or will they look at what has happened to Gaetan Bong and think I can do without all the aggro.
Racism then goes unquestioned and unchallenged.
Regardless of what you think actually happened at West Brom, there is a wider issue here. 'So What' is just shrugging your shoulders and saying it's ok cos it doesn't affect me.

So Burnley fans defend their racism, it gets better and better.
Statistically there are a significant number of people in Burnley who have racist views. See BNP council seats, for evidence of this.
Statistically quite a number of people in Spain have less than liberal views on race.
Speaking purely statistically, if you grew up in Burnley, in a Spanish family, there is a stronger possibility that you might hold such views, than your average man in the street.

Such insinuations really don't help.

If you want to be horrified (no exaggeration) read the @lancashiretelegraph article. It makes the Argus comments look like innocent toddlers.

Andy Naylor is being attacked as well.

Any chance of quoting one post that calls Burnley fans thick and has a basic grammatical error?
Painful slog? It wasn't compulsory
Slight edit for you at the top.

It's a shame there isn't a 'spot the brain cell' test before being allowed a Twitter account.

You’d laugh if it wasn’t so tragic.
We need a huge investment in education, it’s really holding the country back.
