Personally I am over the defence of "it is only one or two fans" or a "handful of fans". While we accept this, there will be no improvement. When points are deducted then the silent majority might stand up for their team and do something. As a referee who has been verbally and physically abused, including being verbally abused when I have gone to watch a game, I am over the people with the attitude of I have paid my money so I am entitled to say what I want. In the end it was the amount of abuse that caused me to leave the field and I left at a decent level here in Australia.
