FA condone racism at Southend

Or so it would appear anyway.
Southend's supporters give Bradford City's Jamaican goalkeeper a constant torrent of vile racist abuse- for which one man was arrested- and the referee sends him off for waving at them when the away side took the lead.
The FA have refused to listen to any appeal, effectively meaning that they are condoning the racism at Southend United. If the racist filth wind up a player, then the player gets sent off.
Every football club in the country has an element of vermin like this, there's no blame attached to Southend United. But now they've been given free reign to racially abuse any player they want, safe in the knowledge that if their vile abuse works, their team will get a huge advantage.
Still, the FA have a huge history of pandering to these clowns. Look at how Fowler was treated after Everton fans screamed abuse at him for years.
Kick racism out of football my arse.

This is a joke right? And if that's true, it's a load of bollocks...
The City goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was sent off for waving at the vermin racially abusing him, and raising his index finger to indicate what the score was (it was 1-0 at the time).
The scum doing the racial abusing has been nicked for it, too.
Amazingly, we held on for a 1-1 draw, Deano Windass playing a blinder in net.
As you pointed out Kermit, there is no link between these people and the clubs, they are just Vermin who are in an extremely small minority are at every ground. He was eventually dragged out by the stewards complaining he'd "done nothing wrong".
It must be extremely hard to resist reacting (as Ricketts did), but it's the only way of depriving these people - not giving them the reaction they want, and making sure they are punished for their part in it. The problem is, more often than not, what happens at Southend happens as opposed to that at OT, and the victim of the abuse is not protected and then punished for their reaction.
