SERBIAN MATCH

Perhaps it's time to get the Serbian "Media" to inform their population that anyone intending to come to England to claim the extensive benifits that are available from the benevolent govenment here , they must realise that Englishmen are both black and white,and that to insult one is to to insult the other!

RACISM IN FOOTBALL

19.06.07, 12:18am

The FA have asked UEFA to investigate the racism by the Sebian team and fans with a matter of urgency.
Well don't hold yur breath waiting for them to act as it will probably come to a decision sometime in the next decade.
If they wanted to take a stand then they would immediatley ban Serbia from the competition and reinstate Italy in their place, and also ban the Serbian football from competing in any competition for 5 years.
The way their team chased down Derbyshire was criminal, and god help him if he had not ran away, and then for no serbain to get a red card for it was amazing to say the least.
This woould send out the message that racism will not be tolerated under any circumstance, so others would think twice about doing it.
