Adebayo Akinfenwa speaks out over vile fan abuse at Wycombe v MK Dons clash and tells authorities to ‘stamp it out’
ADEBAYO AKINFENWA has torn into moronic fans who aimed vile abuse at him during Wycombe’s clash with MK Dons.
The Wycombe striker furiously confronted a group of away supporters after being subjected to abusive chants at Adams Park on Saturday.
And speaking after seeing his side slip to a 1-0 defeat, he called on authorities to do more to stamp out the abuse.
: “I can take jokes, I’m all for the entertainment.
“But there are kids here - where has this come from? The reason I went up there… was for those that can’t put this on their shoulders.
“What I want to happen now is for this to get nipped in the bud.
“It’s not a trend, it’s not funny. The chants they’re saying - there’s no bants to it.
“Some people will be like ‘oh it’s a joke’ - if you know me, you know I can take a joke. That’s not a joke.
