The Utah Royals supporters group, The Court, has come under fire for a statement the group’s twitter account posted ahead of Saturday’s match at Rio Tinto Stadium against the Portland Thorns.
“There is nothing we won’t do in support of our team, our players and coaches,” the post read in part. “This also means that we want away teams to feel as uncomfortable as possible. Traveling supporters take away from what we hope to achieve within the confines of our fortress. We do not welcome them or their supporters into our home.”
@sltrib @sltribsports Did you happen to see this statement from the Utah Royals supporters group?
