Completely Unacceptable

4 Oct 2023 | 2 comments

A fantastic Blues performance at St. Andrew’s was tarnished by a reported incident of racial abuse during the match against Huddersfield Town last night. Incredibly, the abuse was directed at Juninho Bacuna by a Blues fan located in Arthur’s Area in the Main Stand.

The incident has rightly been widely condemned and, it appears, is now being investigated by West Midlands Police.

Tom Wagner has issued a statement on behalf of the club which can be read in full here.

Blues Trust also utterly condemns the actions of the individual concerned and supports the proposed action by the club if the person in question is identified. The Trust also sends its full support to Juninho at what has to be a very difficult time for him and his family.

We as fans can also play our part to by reporting any such incidents. Kick it out (https://www.kickitout.org/home) have a website and App that allows easy reporting of such situations.

Together we can all play a part in ending discrimination in football.
