Due to the rise in incidents of personal abuse towards staff and players in recent weeks, we would like to take this opportunity to remind supporters that this type of conduct will not be tolerated.

Having had time to further investigate the incident that took place at Cove Rangers on Saturday, involving one of our own fans, we are unwilling to accept the level of personal abuse aimed at our management team and players. 

As a club we are proud of the passion that is shown by our loyal fans, both home and away. However, we have to remind individuals not to overstep the mark. At the end of the day, our players and staff are all human and at their place of work. They don’t deserve to have foul and abusive language and personal insults aimed at them, it doesn’t help anyone. 

As a club we cannot allow these incidents to continue, if they do we will be forced to take further action. We have identified the individual involved on Saturday and will be speaking with them in due course. 

Can we ask that people please treat our staff, players and volunteers with respect and be kind.
