Chops subjected to racial abuse?

Last updated : 17 October 2009 By Michael Morris

There are allegations that Michael Chopra was racially abused. Chops hails from Indian descent and there are claims that names were called against him. Strike partner Jay Bothroyd has heard about the allegations.

"I wasn't there but I spoke to Chops and he said one of their boys made a racist comment to him." said Bothroyd.

"That is obviously not acceptable in this game and it's something I think the referee might have to deal with.

"We were wearing T-shirts today that said 'Kick Racism Out Of Football' and then something like that happens.

"It's not a good example to set for football in general.

"If you call someone a racist name people are going to react and that's happened at the end."
