## Resource

Rugby club president Alan Stewart is facing major backlash after a drunken speech at a dinner allegedly packed with racist, homophobic, and sexist remarks — so much so that a women’s team coach resigned in protest. The Scottish Rugby Union has banned him from all matches and club roles for a year, ordered mandatory equality training, and upheld findings of misconduct — though no charges were brought against Musselburgh RFC. Stewart can appeal, while Musselburgh has apologized and pledged to support female players through donations and dialogue. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
