A youth player has told the investigation his own team-mates abused him and rubbed bananas into his clothes.
Club staff conduct also being looked into.
Don’t suppose anyone has some info on this? Is it related to the bullying claims from previously?

For the FA to be involved, it’s clearly serious.

Because it's happened before a young kid didn't make grade and club staff inc Bellamy was accused of bullying ect.... the kid in this story is under 14 and no longer at club...Also look at the website of this publication and it reveals nothing other than what the headline states and where else is this story being highlighted...? It apparently happened in December and according to this story it involved his team mates and club being investigated for not going enough to investigate incident... so suspect part of same story involving Bellamy and others last year. Anyway it will come out in wash if it is being investigated now.

Concerning that stories like this don’t seem to go away either. At a time we should be proud of the kids coming out of the academy, stories like this will put future talent off signing for us

This is going back 3 yrs now call me a cinic but at 1st its bullying and it's to do with under 13 players involved..... now the most popular cry today is racism so let's try racist
card, This story as strikingly similarities to others that were investigated in fact the parents dont agree with the club about things.... upto now as anything been proved in any of previous cases? Unfortunately club as nowhere to go as football gone into hysterical outrage at mere mention of racism, the club will be dragged through the mud to please the organisations that benefit from such cases..... who would be a coach at an academy in these circumstances to frightened to reject a youngster because may get accused of something by parents who are angry their kid wont become a rich footballer? What musnt forget the academy as changed staff several times so not same people involved...anyway this will probably go way of other investigations nothing proved and club told to bolster their safekeeping and racism protocols at academy.

No you are not a cynic, you are a realist. Are we expected to believe that at a club with many black players in it from first team down to kids level, that someone rubbed bananas in a black kids clothes. And if it did happen it would have been the action of one spiteful kid who probably wouldnt have dreamt of doing it years ago but now due to the hysteria surrounding racism in the game, saw it as a way of getting to the black lad.

Haha, felt the time was right mate. Never been the one to comment a lot, but there’s always some interesting stuff on here. This was literally the first story that grabbed my attention. Don’t worry, I’ll be on a lot more in the future
Either that or I’m some crazy Antifa-supporting, Swansea fan. Eh Sven?

they are separate incidents...involving different boys, coaches, age groups...
significant concerns relating to an unacceptable coaching environment.... and a lack of effective safeguarding is what the club said the investigation showed... not sure if you would consider that proof but its certainly an admission from the club thats things were not right...
