Gary Neville says football's racism problem extends to UK politics – video


After allegations of racist chants marred Chelsea‘s 2-0 away win over Tottenham Hotspur, former England player Gary Neville has called on the Premier League to ‘stand up’ to football’s racism problem. Speaking on Sky Sports, Neville said racism in football was mirrored in UK politics. ’We’ve just had a general election in this country where both main parties and the leaders of both main parties are accused, constantly over the last month, of fuelling racism and accepting racism within their parties. We’re not talking about it at a micro level, we are talking about it at … the highest level in the country.’ Neville went on to say that the PFA (Professional Footballers’ Association) must ‘stop pointing the finger at the Bulgaria FA and Spanish FA’.
