Racism is ok if if the offender apologises, it only effects the intended target, if he doesn't care no one else should, the chairman is to busy so love off.

Not at all, racism isn't OK but alcohol makes people act very differently (as does frustration), it isn't in the place of an individual to complain on someone elses' behalf, I doubt very much Kelly a)heard it and b)gave a jot if he did.
It was a Hull "fan" at an away ground, nothing to do with AP.
It's a complete overreaction to an admittedly horrible incident, but a life ban and a "good kicking" is mob justice.
Maybe we should ban all players, officials etc. that have "previous"?

I never said it was OK, just letting people know the guy is horrified at what he said and is sorry. Part of my family are black and if one of them was on another planet due to drink and called me a white B****** I doubt I would want him to be kicked into a wheelchair.

If he was rubbish would it be less of an issue to you?

Nah, that was lynching black boys for smiling at white women or stealing a bird from the chicken coop.
As ever, it's opinions, my own view is its an overreaction to want the guy banned. Let's hope Kelly has a stormer again today and shuts any abusive fans up.

He was having a stormer last week
Stunned what I'm reading. If kelly played for Cas and was racially abused by a fan, I would want said fan banned. I don't think that's an over reaction.
"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround."
An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.

The 'fan' was clearly drunk but those words must be in his vocabulary to have come out AGAINST OUR BEST PLAYER! Tomorrow I will be wearing my South Sydney Indigenous shirt which bears the symbol of Albert's family, the Dunghutti in support of him as it's more than Hull FC have done to date.
Maybe the club are looking into it. A response would have been good but it's hardly a reason to send your passes back

This. Not sure how you can properly investigate and conclude any review in 5 working days, and it wouldn't be appropriate to share the specific details with other individuals anyway. If reviewed and found guilty there should be serious consequences.

"Guilty" of what, by which court, on what police action and CPS prosecution or magistrates ruling?
