Racism in football is thankfully dying out, mainly in part to the Kick It Out campaign that has raised awareness about the issue since it was formed in 1993.
Andy,
thanks for the comment. Am interested to know at what level racism is in football where you are.
Grell,
Thanks so much for posting this information.
This is an unfortunate issue that continues. Hopefully, we are witnessing a decline in this terrible practice.
Andy
