Sherlock played senior football for Dublin for 15 seasons and during that time, received his own share of racist abuse.
The GAA must “take seriously” the racist abuse of Wexford hurling captain Lee Chin over the weekend, former Dublin player Jason Sherlock has said.
“So, first and foremost my thoughts are with Lee and his family because, ultimately, when you’re the recipient of racist abuse, it’s probably the impact it has on your family and friends that’s more important.“But at the same time, it’s a horrible experience to go through. “When I played no-one knew what was right or wrong but the players you could see knew this was wrong and it was out of order.”
