Venables fury over Boateng’s allegations against Barmby

TERRY VENABLES is calling for Middlesbrough to launch an inquiry into the conduct of midfielder George Boateng.

The Dutchman found himself embroiled in controversy yesterday after accusing Nicky Barmby of making racist remarks to him during the 2-2 draw against Leeds.

Barmby, flanked by Leeds’ boss Venables, called a news conference at the club’s training ground to deny the allegations.
