Yep well done PV, don't put up with it.
I suppose there's a few ways you could see it mate.
1. He gets abused so has every right to take the team off.
2. He gets sent off for assaulting another player but uses racism as the reason.

We'll probably get the kitchen sink thrown at us over this.
And that's what they don't like at UEFA/FIFA HQ. By us bringing this to the worlds attention and not shaking hands it shows them up for what they are. They hate us even more.
