Straight after the game, Brooks informed Casilla that there had been an allegation of racist abuse made against him and that he would be reporting the incident to the FA. "Racist abuse is abhorrent and completely unacceptable, at no point should an individual have to experience racist abuse on the football pitch or in any walk of life. "This is not the first time in the last 12 months one of our players has been subjected to racist abuse; last year the club twice reported racist abuse on social media directed towards Lyle Taylor to the police."
