incredible scenes. ac milan vs pro patria is called off due to racist chanting from patria ultras. milan black players the target, especially boateng, who in the video, decides enough is enough, picks up the ball and kicks it at the ultras. good on him.

Brilliant to see. Not only for Boateng having the bottle to do that, but the rest of his teammates following suit and Pro Patria players going over to their Ultras to stop the abuse and then joining Milan in walking off the pitch. Rest of the Pro Patria fans applauding rather than whistling was the icing on the cake.
Not going to bother ranting about the racism aspect, since its a pathetic, depolorable act and I don't need to write an essay to spell that out to anyone.

For the club's sake I'd hope that's the case. No idea if they're close to a team in Serie A who are rivals of Milan, but I guess unfortunately with Ultras you can never be completely sure of their intentions, not to tar them all with the same brush but for every fanatic who won't shut up all game you've got the racism/fascism antics that come about from a few groups.
Regardless of the idiots, good to see everyone else be able to see that was the right course of action and a much needed stand against pathetic bigotry.

Good for Boateng. Great show of class in class-less environment. Be interesting to see if they'd all do the same in a Serie A match. Hopefully they're not put in that situation though. Twonks gonna twonk till the end of time.

And which two questions are they? Apologies, I've barely been on here for the last week and I can't be arsed trailing through every page & post, but since you clearly think you know everything Blackburn and all of football in general probably you don't need anyone to answer them.
Edit: I checked a link in my UserCP and your first question was there.

That says it all frankly, and it's 'their' by the way, just a little thing. Anyway, yes you're right; you don't understand. His record, his tactics, his lies, his awful signings, his manipulation of the media to turn it on the fans, his pathetic excuses, his ridiculous deluded comments etc.
Clearly you missed all the "We want Venky's out" chants and banners, just seeing the Kean ones. Like all the other idiots who are happy to criticise the Blackburn fans, maybe you should look at what 'actually' went on and what is still going on as far as Venky's are concerned. We've got local government challenging their ownership & takeover, but that's not covered that much outside of the North West so your ignorance is forgiven. Due to the fact they're in another country and Kean was on the touchline he got more of it and his PR team made sure it was in the press to make him out to be the victim. When they did get stick at a game they went to in Wigan, they didn't turn up for a game until the start of this season when they felt they had to due to their absence being discussed in the meetings the BRFC Action Group set up. Have you heard of them and what they're doing daily to try & help? I suggest you do.
But hey, the Blackburn fans were in the wrong to boo Kean. How dare they boo him & Venky's? How dare we point out we were heading for disaster? Oh look what happened, and we're still not being listened to. I sincerely hope no other fans have to go through what we have the past 2 years. You simply can't understand how it feels to have the love for your club ripped out of you time & time again by inept owners and be criticised endlessly for caring by fans who haven't got the foggiest as to what's actually going on.
