Holgate

People are going over the top with their bias on here.

Holgate pushes Firmino into the stands - should have been booked

Firmino (allegedly) says something racist

No one else seems to hear anything judging by reactions so hopefully it was just Holgate mishearing.

The ref reports it (as he should) and the FA are going to look into it (as they should) . Protocol needs to be followed in this situation to confirm the facts so don't jump the gun on either player. By all means criticise Holgate for the push but lets not accuse him of making something up.

Exactly this.

And if proven thst Firmino did not day anything 're ist Holgate should come out and apologise for wrongly accusing him and dragging his name through the mud.

And just to be on record if Firmino was being racist then we as a club have to seriously consider making a real statement on racism (we did badly in Suarez affair) and sell. We can not be one had saying we are supporting Brewster and then in other hand support a player who made racists comments.

I have seen nothing other than supposed accusation so I fully support Firmino in this and assume his innocence until such time as proven otherwise.

Has anyone got even a shred of evidence of wrongdoing by Firmino?

Welsh Xavi, goofy

Exactly and there was some idiot pool fans who stil supported Suarez after he mad e his racist comment and was banned that he didn't do nothing wrong. Im sure the club learned from that disaster and lets see the outcome but from what i saw and looks like it wasn't a Racist comment/word from Firmino but lets see form the investigation.

Lashing out, calm down dear.

I haven’t made comment on what may or may not have been said.

He’s not lashing out Arouna, he’s just trying to educate you. Which is a bit like trying to eat soup with a fork.

Drink soup you drink it as it’s a liquid.

Nothing, but I have said people should wait for Ref report.

Anyone notice Holgate pushing Matip in the back both hands for the VVD goal? Hendo conceded a pen for laying a finger on some brighton guy?
