Ferdinand Says Football Clubs Should Be BANNED For Racism
Posted by E.L.E.X on April 25 2019 under Sports
Football teams including Chelsea and Montenegro should be banned from competitions over racist abuse, says Les Ferdinand.
The former Newcastle and England striker wants football’s authorities to go a step further than Raheem Sterling’s call for nine-point deductions for incidents of racist abuse and adopt a similar approach taken to stop hooliganism in the 1980s.
“What did they do to English teams? They banned them for five years,” Ferdinand told Sky Sports News.
“Kick them out of the competition, you’ll soon solve the problem.”
England’s players were subjected to monkey chants and other racist abuse during last month’s European Qualifier in Podgorica which UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin labelled as a “disaster”.
Montenegro were subsequently charged by UEFA with racist behaviour following the game and face a partial stadium closure.
Sterling, who has backed a manifesto calling for change in how football’s authorities deal with racism and discrimination, was allegedly racially abused by a Chelsea supporter last December.
