Erin McClean has taken to social media to thank the public for their support after her husband James was allegedly subjected to sectarian abuse.
James took to social media to share the alleged abuse as he took aim at Sunderland and FA.
In a lengthy statement, McClean said: “Considering every single year we have an FA representative come into each club to discuss the same old crap they spew to us about discrimination, every single year I challenge them on the abuse, every single year they do nothing
“This clip is one of yesterday, which can be heard clearly of one particular chant, as well as other chants of ‘f**k the pope and IRA, being sung... as well as numerous individual chants of ‘fenian b*****d, fenian c**t, you dirty Irish c**t’ (while displaying a tribute before the game honouring Niall Quinn who is the same nationality as myself).
“I should not have to report every single incident when clearly they can all hear what I hear and they should be doing their job by taking action. “I would be lying if I was to say I expect anything to be done about this by the FA, EFL (history shows this), but here is ANOTHER CHANCE…"
And Erin McClean has thanked the public for support.
She said on social media: "I try to avoid getting into it too much anymore because it takes too much energy and tbh it’s been quite pointless in the past. But the support hasn’t gone unnoticed and definitely outshines the negativity for me. So thank you."
