Our National team went to Spain the other week for a "Friendly" soccer match only to be met with some of the worst scenes of racial abuse in recent years And the other night a black player was subjected to this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/4034423.stm# (video clip) And to complicate matters he had just transferred from that club and they were the visitors **Watch the guy in the dark top/orange scarf(front row)** And the story gets sillier according to some people, the guy was thrown out of the ground without the Police asking what his name was? Means he can be there at the next game doing the same thing Unrelated story was Eric Cantona (playing for Manchester United)in 1995 leaping into the Stand and Kung-fu Kicking a "fan" who did the same thing (he was "red carded" and in a bad mood,walking towards the dressing rooms) He recieved a 9 month ban from Playing Football as a result of this incident http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/january/27/newsid_2506000/2506237.stm There's an Audio clip on ths page under the picture
