If a fan is found to be chanting racial abuse or is making racist gestures they will be banned for life. Why should players not be subjected to the same rules?
One was the alleged use of a single word allegedly spoken in the heat of the moment on the pitch, in a particularly nasty game where players are already winding each other up and adrenalin is running high, and which, if indeed spoken, the player would have regretted immediately.

A false accusation of racism is as bad if not worse than being racist and I believe you should be banned for that alone.
The only evidence I have seen is inconclusive. Terry certainly appears to have used the words "black ****", but his defence is that he was asking if Ferdinand believed that he used those words. JT has been at the forefront of anti racism campaigns in football and though that does not mean he is not racist it goes a long way towards his defence.
If he is found guilty then he should be sacked from playing for England. I would hope that all players in the EPL would refuse to play with or against him if that is the case.
What about it being caught on TV for all to see on YouTube, it's obvious you are a closet racist.

If the police have enough evidence to start a trial then its well deserved and hardly just a scurrilous accusation, since it was witnessed by anyone with a TV or Computer. Hope he get banned from football WHEN he is found guilty.
Oh, so we might as well do away with the court system then! If the CPS say there is a case to answer then you must be guilty!

I agree that he is "a prize twunt" etc, but it can not be right that someone can make a scurrilous accusation and that it is acted upon.
If this continues then the known "mind game" players will start to make all sorts of accusations to cause maximum mayhem within other teams.
Personally, I don't think it's a scurrilous accusation.
