Four Chelsea fans convicted of racist violence in Paris
|
Four Chelsea football fans have been convicted of racist violence and given suspended prison sentences after a black commuter was pushed off a Paris M�tro carriage in Paris while fans chanted: �We�re racist, we�re racist, and that�s the way we like it.�
The incident in February 2015 before a game between Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain was filmed by a British man, Paul Nolan, and the footage was published by the Guardian. It sparked an outcry over racism in sport, with politicians and the then French and British prime ministers condemning the attack.
Only two of the accused attended the criminal trial in Paris for aggravated racist violence. The other two were tried in their absence. All four were ordered to pay the victim �10,000 in total.

While the blokes obviously behaved like complete cunts, it's hardly "racist violence" is it FFS?
Meanwhile elsewhere in the Sultanate of France

He's probably locked up for calling a bus driver a jigaboo.

Whatever happened to freedom of speech eh.
I mean it was bad and I find racism a bit odd in this day and age, but fuck me we'd all be bankrupt if we were fined that much every time we said something nasty to someone.
I never sued the black fella's in Dulwich who called me a honky, I reckon I missed a trick by not being offended and instead laughing. Could have got 6 months off work with stress.

Surely the most appropriate justice would have been to give the 4 Chelsea fans to the cannibal to boil up in his pot

bruuno, perhaps they thought it as good an excuse as any to have a jolly up in Paris?

One of my favourite moments of last season was when Chelsea brought Zouma on at UP (RIP) and a good proportion of the ground chanted 'you wouldn't let him on the train' while he waited on the sidelines.

Punishment does not fit the crime, although they are utter cunts. Amazing to think this has gone on for 2 years and how much it has.

The correct punishment would be to have them introduced on the pitch before Chelsea's next home match. And have them read out a statement from UEFA confirming that due to this incident Chelsea have been banned from the Champions League for the next 3 seasons that they qualify. And then let them return to their seats.

That's 10,000 euros, so it's about, well, 10,000 quid.

Back pages tomorrow: "Why are West Ham fans not held to account for influencing other teams' fans in this way?"

Bet the bloke who filmed them is pleased to see his name in the paper. Has the traumatised black bloke stopped crying and gone back to work yet?
