Racism rife in English football

Racism is widespread in English football, with police having to deal with hundreds of incidents from the top of the game right down to grassroots level, an investigation has revealed.

It also showed Chelsea supporters have been involved in the most number of reported racist incidents as they travelled to and from matches on trains.

It follows the high-profile case of a black man who was prevented from boarding a train in Paris by Chelsea fans as they sang a racist song, with five of them due in court this week.
