Football Unites, Racism Divides believes that football, as the world’s most popular game, can help to bring together people from different backgrounds to play, watch and enjoy the game, and to break down barriers created by ignorance or prejudice.
Our aim is to ensure that everyone who plays or watches football can do so in a safe environment, without the fear of racial abuse and harassment, in either a verbal or a physical form. We want to increase the participation of people from ethnic minorities in football, as either players, spectators or employees.
Should racist chanters be ejected from football matches?
