Club statement: Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw

Manchester City were appalled to learn that Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw was subjected to racist and misogynistic abuse following Sunday’s fixture.

What on earth is wrong with people? Not very nice for her, sounds like it was something on line.

The idiots that have posted this are not blues… they are pathetic and I hope they get prosecuted and have to accountability and responsibility for their actions

 

[super_city_si]

Social Media has given all the misogynists and racists (basically cunts) a voice without fear of exposing their identity. They should be found and prosecuted.

Hope these keyboard warriors get a knock on whoever's door that happens to shelter whichever basement they live in.

 

[lancs blue]

This is an unfortunate but sadly predictable side effect of the wider TV audience for women's football. I doubt it was fans of either team that were responsible for this shit, more likely some **** watching at home deciding to share his pathetic inadequacies on social media.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Good on her for not wanting to give the scum the attention they crave when they do this shit. I firmly believe the vast majority do this simply to get a bit of attention. Report them and don't give them the attention they want.

 

[cleavers]

I've no idea why any blue would give her abuse for her performance on Sunday, so very much doubt it was any blue.

 

[Mon Autre]

Don't think it really matters who the perpetrator supports. They might follow City, they might follow someone else. Whatever the case, I think their actions were driven mostly by racism and misogyny and I just really hope she's OK. Whoever they are I hope they're brought to account but I very much doubt anything will happen.

They used to be called trolls

Bunny is missing from tonight's panel.
Hope it has nothing to do with these racist remarks.

Sadly it looks like that is the reason.

Probably on the BBC HYS section, you can say whatever the fuck you want about City and our players on there.

Always loads of men claiming that women shouldn't play football on those pages, you'd think the irony of them typing messages on the internet about it would dawn on them at some point.

I got a post deleted for implying, only implying mind, that they were Neanderthal men, that's the woke BBC for you.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

It’ll almost certainly be on Instagram.

As if the players read BBC HYS.

No ,they’ve always been called racists and always should be.

Did you complain about that?

They just say it broke the coc, I posted it up in the media thread at the time, tossers mate

Not sure why it's seems so hard but I hope they track down whoever was behind this and show us who they are really are.

This kind of stuff is happening way too regularly. I thought it was a good move from Bunny to not make the content of the abuse public and give it anymore oxygen, but it's gutting to see her need to tale time put to deal with it.

I just hope the club are giving her the correct support and everything she needs.
