Cowards and Bullies (19/02/15)

Supporters: The fans could be heard chanting ‘We're racist, we're racist, and that's the way we like it, we like it, we like it' - although it is not clear which men in this still image were actually singing the song

The incident in Paris the other day in which a gang of Chelsea supporters pushed a black man off an underground train (twice) was the kind of vile, bullying behaviour that any football club can do without.

Especially as these young men then further disgraced themselves by chanting:

"We're racist, we're racist and that's the way we like it'. 

Cowards and bullies the lot of them and if the French police catch up with them before they leave Paris, they'll be spending time in a French jail. 

To Chelsea's credit the club issued the following statement supporting criminal action against those involved and also signalled its willingness to ban anyone who can identified as as season-ticket holder or Chelsea club member 

"Such behaviour is abhorrent and has no place in football or society", said a Chelsea spokesperson. "We will support any criminal action against those involved, and should evidence point to involvement of Chelsea season-ticket holders or members the club will take the strongest possible action against them, including banning orders." 

Good for them and with the aid of photographs such as the one above, and the help of the police, with a bit of luck these clowns will be taught a lesson they won't forget in a hurry.
