Smokey, anybody only has to look at this very page of the thread, to see you are talking nonsense.

I can only ask again, are you aware of the term 'transference'

When was the last time we had something like this though, with videos all over the web and lynch mobs out for blood?
Whether Child reported it or not this was going to happen.

Wigan v Leeds in the Challenge Cup Final 2011.

Both League Express and League Weekly this week stated that the complaint would have had to have come from James Child. Yes I imagine some individuals will be involved in both. But how many incidents have you heard of referred to the Compliance Department??? Papers aren't always correct you know. Say for arguments sake Child hasn't reported it, but several dozen people complain to the RFL about it with the incident on video being banded about......do you think they'd ignore it and say sorry can't do anything as the ref didn't hear it?

And fully justified too. There was absolutely no doubt over what happened on that occasion.

You can't really argue with this, can you?

According to this document it is standard practice, when incidents have not been acted upon during the match or picked up on by officials during the match or via TV footage by the match review panel. The Compliance team will refer the incident on to the tribunal if appropriate. So far as I can gather from reading the operational rules and the guidance on homophobic language, the Compliance team simply oversees the whole disciplinary process, which makes sense given its name. Anyone can report homophobic (or racist/sexist/etc) language to the Compliance team although there are procedures open to follow as an alternative for fans (reporting to the stewards, direct to the club, etc). Upon receiving a report an investigation will be undertaken and an appropriate course of action taken, which may or may not include sanctions. If the guilty party is a player and that course of action is to take the case to the disciplinary panel then if they are found guilty they can receive a Grade E to F ban (5 to 8 matches). There is a specific sanction band for homophobic/racist/sexist/etc language and behaviour.

Seems clear it didn't have to be Child who reported it
