Have seen some utterly ridiculous comments about

being divisive. This is a guy who spent years at the trust, volunteers for the family zone, gave up his time for the supporters forum & is an all round throughly decent, approachable person. We need more like him 🤷♂️

✍️ | We are deeply disappointed that one of our members witnessed an awful homophobic slur at the match last night.
This happened just 2 weeks after the LGBTQ+ fixture where a small number of fans told us homophobic abuse doesn’t happen at
#CCFC
matches.
(1/2)
Unfortunately after all the hard work to tackle homophobia in football, a City fan behind me has just screamed “f*ggot” at Kasey Palmer for losing the ball.
Previously I’d have ignored it, but no more!

He made a huge, huge mistake but the national press attention is a bit much. He’s said sorry. His career may well be over before it’s started and now his family get to see this if they haven’t already. It’s just a sad situation all round. I hope he learns and grows from this
📱 The Coventry City defender filmed himself drunkenly boasting about his wealth, disrespecting the club and fans, then revealed a key player was leaving.
