Here's what I don't understand... The guy in the video clearly pushes to board the packed train in quite an aggressive way and then gets pushed back. He also claimed to not understand what was being chanted at the time. So how could he then go on to say (something like) "what was I supposed to go home and tell my kids, daddy wasn't allowed on the train because he is black?" I'm not saying any of it is acceptable, but the whole thing seems like it has been twisted to me. I'm inclined to agree slightly, had a white Parisian tried to get on the train I believe the Chelsea "fans" would of pushed him off , because he's black it's been made a big deal. Obviously the chanting is inexcusable.

Think the two Chelsea fan incidents have got a bit blown out of proportion due to the big Premier League tv deal that was announced a week or so ago
Fits the media agenda quite well to focus on the money and the darker side of football that still exists. Authorities in London and Paris more than capable of tracking those involved down without the media's help
Lets not kid ourselves its just Chelsea fans that are still a bit knuckle dragging in outlook. Film away fans from any team on a big away day, ourselves included, and you will film the odd yob or racist incident
Fortunately with CCTV, better reporting methods and improved policing and stewarding these types of fans are disappearing from grounds, but still turn up in situations away from grounds
