eSportainment: Abuse Of Chelsea Doctor Should Be Looked Into
Video
footage taken of Manchester United and Arsenal fans earlier this season shows
grossly offensive chanting aimed at the Chelsea club doctor, Eva Carneiro, that
left campaigners “gravely concerned” by the lack of response from football
authorities when it was reported. A similar incident at Manchester City was
also reported by the campaign group Women in Football but no action was
ultimately taken.
In all, the
campaign group has recorded 13 similar incidents this season aimed at female
staff, officials, journalists and cheerleaders.
In the footage from Old
Trafford, obtained by the BBC, the crowd chants: “Get your tits out for the
lads,” while an individual shouts: “Show us where you piss from, you slag, show
us your minge,” to laughter.
At Stamford
Bridge, a handful of away supporters chant: “Have you ever had a Gooner up your
arse?” at Carneiro.
