West Ham's Obinna refutes racism reports

West Ham forward Victor Obinna last night revealed none of his relatives were even in the country – let alone at Upton Park – on Saturday.

Reports emerged yesterday Obinna and Frederic Piquionne’s families suffered racial abuse during the Hammers’ 4-2 defeat by Manchester United, with guests of the two strikers allegedly involved in a confrontation with a small group of fans.
