"The FA are investigating me after Saturday's game, for what exactly? "Yet week in week out for the past seven years I get constant sectarian abuse, death threats, objects being thrown, chanting which is heard loud and clear every week which my family, wife and kids have to listen to. "They turn a blind eye and not a single word or condemnation of any sort.

He said: "Whilst, I do not believe it is appropriate for me to apologise to those fans who abused me, I do want to whole-heartedly apologise to the vast majority of Stoke City fans who although they may have different views to myself are decent and respectful. "I sincerely apologise for any offence that I caused them with my comments and posting on Instagram."
