A certain section of Stoke City fans came under fire over a chant making fun of Aaron Ramsey’s most serious injury on Sunday.
Ramsey spent over 10 months sidelined after Ryan Shawcross destroyed his leg with a ferocious foul on the halfway line back in 2010.
The Welsh midfielder suffered a double leg fracture thanks to the challenge, but it seems that Stoke fans still hold a grudge against him for how he treated Shawcross after the incident.
Shawcross tried to apologise to Ramsey and penned the Arsenal midfielder a letter but Ramsey has reportedly refused to speak to the defender since the foul.
As some form of retaliation or, what some Twitter users argued was “quality b*ntz”, Stoke fans roared a new chant aimed at Ramsey during the Premier League clash on Sunday. “He walks with a limp” has not been received well by the football community as you can see from the following tweets.

Sounds like Stoke fans had their brains broken same day as Shawcross decimated Ramsey's leg. #SFCvAFC

Ramsey getting hammered by the Stoke fans & booing him. It's his prerogative not to accept Shawcross's apology. To boo Ramsey is ridiculous

HATE these Stoke fans! The audacity of that 'walks with a limp' chant! Ramsey should score and then limp as a celebration! Scumbags.
