UK Football Association demands action on racism

The UK Football Association is calling for a national inquiry into racism in game after numerous unsavoury incident occurred during this week's clash between Chelsea and Tottenham.'' Tottenham said it will employ lip readers to study crowd footage after Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger alleged he had been subjected to racist abuse. In Sunday's Premier League match between the two clubs, play was halted at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium while announcements reminded fans there is "no place for racism in the game". According to the game's governing body, at least 15 high profile incidents of players facing alleged racism at matches or on social media within the professional English game has been recorded so far this season. The UK government has warned it will help crack down on racism within the game, and warned fans they face possible jail terms if found guilty.
