Trust me, what I experienced was grossly offensive. It was a tirade of abusive comments about different ethnic groups made by two senior members in a public area heard by up to twenty other members. One of those involved was actually employed by the club. When one of the culprits was quietly...
Many of the members are very nice, supportive people who deserve better from their management committee. However, they don't want controversy and prefer a quiet life. So how can the management committee of the club be held to account?
I thought I could trust the management committee of the club to hear my complaint about obscene racist comments fairly. Sadly, they dismissed my complaint and criticised me for making the complaint.
Nothing to fear from me. I have experienced some particularly unpleasant racist comments that resulted in me leaving the club because the club's management failed to deal with the culprits and criticised me for complaining. I am interested to know if this is common in other clubs.
