Wanderers race warning


24/10/2003

BOLTON Wanderers fans have been warned they could be banned from the team's Reebok stadium for life if they are caught using racist language.
The warning, from manager, Sam Allardyce, was made in the eve of their home game against Birmingham City.
A new group Bolton Against Racism handed out anti-racist leaflets and stickers. They asked fans to sign a petition condemning racist in football.
Said Mr Allardyce: "Racism has no part in today's game, and it is really disturbing when you hear racist chants being aimed at players. No fan should ever use racist language either in a football stadium or in the wider world. We all have our part to play in promoting greater understanding."
