City condemn racist abuse of Rico Lewis by Sevilla fans | Paltry €5k fined issued by UEFA (p7)

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

I’ve travelled around Spain and its islands extensively. It is a very racist country. No way of dressing that up
Much if that tbf is its proximity to Africa and the ‘cuyacos’. Rightly or wrong, they feel they are being invaded

Thanks Suella. They arent being invaded btw

It can't be difficult to weed out the culprits. It was the smallest turn out of away fans that I can remember. CTID

Latin fascism is alive in Spain still it seems. Franco stuff. Strange.

See Atletico doing Roman salutes when they were here as well. But fascism, in different flavours, on the rise all over Europe.

I'm sure City are doing all they can to support the lad, there really is no fucking place for it. Good riddance to 'em.

Have you ever noticed it's always the kids they racially abuse too?

Not exclusively, of course, but you seem to get far more stories where young England players have been abused than established internationals.

The moment I saw the ref telling him to walk around the stadium I knew Sevilla fans were going to throw racist remarks at the boy. Typical!

The same ref who let 2 of their players walk off from more or less the same place as Rico without having to go the long way round. Given he went off with an injury that was just fucking weird

Maybe the established internationals have learned to tune it out? Because this isn’t something new.

I’m sure UEFA will hand out a €12.00 fine - cos they take this stuff so seriously.

Looked weird too with them all bunched up at the front. I just assumed it was for warmth.

It’s not up to us to condemn it, it’s up to Sevilla to.

Which they have done....

I remember their fans being terrible for racism a few years ago when we played them over there. Weirdos

When you have the fat racist Tebas as the head of La Liga you realise you got no chance.
