ON hearing of MP Ann Winterton's tasteless remarks, I was reminded of the behaviour of certain Bolton Wanderers "supporters" at the Man City game.
In the 73rd minute Macken was substituted for the Chinese player Sun Jihai and a certain minority in the Wanderers section started to chant with reference to cockles and drowning.
I, and many other normal fans, found it to be tasteless and cowardly.
The perpetrators should be warned that they are not wanted as supporters and can be ejected, in the same way as Ann Winterton should be.
