Chelsea news: Cesc Fabregas says it’s ‘very unfair’ to make fans scapegoats for racism in football following more allegations
Cesc Fabregas believes it is “really unfair” to point the figure solely at Chelsea fans when it comes to the wider issue of racism in football.The west London side hit out at the behaviour of a minority of supporters for the second time in a week afteranti-Semitic chanting was heard during their Europa League gameagainst Mol Vidi in Budapest.4

Cesc Fabregas believes Chelsea fans are being made scapegoats for racism in football

Just 3 minutes into the game and some @ChelseaFC fans are singing antisemetic chants…its embarrassing. It MUST stop! @kickitout— Charlotte Hodges (@CharHodges88) December 13, 2018

In fact, it was fellow Chelsea supporters using social media who drew attention to a derogatory song aimed at rivals Tottenham which contained the word Yid.The latest shameful scenes come after four Blues fans were accused of hurling racist abuse at Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling.Two men have since come forward but deny using racist language.And while Chelsea midfielder Fabregas was quick to condemn racism, he feels the problem is bigger than just one club.He said: It’s easy to point now at the Chelsea supporters that did that.4

Ive covered Chelsea for a long time and can't remember a game where there wasnt some racist chanting.535,000 Jews in Hungary were sent to gas chambers and this is the sort of behaviour that brought it about.@DanLevene emotionally condemns racist chants from Chelsea fans pic.twitter.com/QrYtVsTIIk— talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) December 14, 2018

“Unfortunately this happens in many places.“It’s true it happened this weekend, we cannot deny that, but to point the finger at one football club because of that I think it’s really unfair.”He continued: There’s an investigation, the club is dealing with this very, very well.“Whatever needs to be done will be done. I’ve no doubt about that.I don’t know who is responsible for these things but, once again, I cannot accept or I cannot agree with this.“This happens to all football clubs.There’s always insults; I’ve had so many of them over the years when you warm up and even jokes. That’s fine for me. When we cross the line with racism, it’s too far, it shouldn’t be allowed.4

Four Chelsea fans have also been accused of racially abusing Raheem Sterling during last weekend’s game against Manchester City

The people that get caught, they will be punished for it and they will be taught a big lesson in their lives. I hope this will help for many other reasons in life.“I don’t want that image anywhere. I repeat: I think it’s really unfair to point the finger at one football club, just because of one, two, three, four people.They don’t deserve to be in the stadium. We all agree about that.4

Colin Wing (circled) says he did not racially abuse Sterling, but has apologised for the words he did use

“If that means or this helps in this situation for this not to happen somewhere else, all over the world, not only in football, any kind of sport or social life.However, Fabregas admitted he has no problem with Chelsea’s problems being used to tackle racism on a wider scale if it prompts change in the long run.UEFA are awaiting the report from match referee Aleksandar Stavrev before deciding whether or not action is required from them. He added: If we have to be taught a lesson at Chelsea to improve whatever happens around the world, then I’m happy.“But to point the finger at one football club because of three or four of these people, I don’t think it’s deserved and I don’t agree with that.The Police are investigating last weekends incident as a possible hate crime.Chelsea issued a strongly-worded statement in response to the last nights events.It read: Antisemitism and any other kind of race-related or religious hatred is abhorrent to this club and the overwhelming majority of our fans.“It has no place at Chelsea or in any of our communities.We have stated this loud and clear on many occasions from the owner, the board, coaches and players.“Any individuals that cant summon the brainpower to comprehend this simple message and are found to have shamed the club by used using anti-Semitic or racist words or actions will face the strongest possible action from the club.Fabregas was unaware of the latest claims involving Chelsea fans and the Spaniard said: First time I hear about this.“All I can say is when I’m in the street, when I’m at Stamford Bridge, all over the world when we’ve travelled with Chelsea they’ve been amazing to me and to the team.This is not the real face of Chelsea. I’m sorry to hear that.“If something happened it will be dealt with. The focus now is on Chelsea for what happened.“Unfortunately if we look around carefully all over the world, all sports, all football clubs, we will find things like that.“The quicker we get rid of these people, the better.”

I think I've just about reached breaking point. Whatever fun is left from the spectacle of football - which still brings me great joy, and is rarely bettered than Liverpool's first goal at Watford - is lost in the maelstrom of hate, negativity and just downright nastiness.
