I find it slightly ironic that England's players are threatening to walk off the pitch if there's any racist chanting from the Bulgarians. This is from a country who have a small minority who have been fined and banned for racist chants in the past. There are also instances where English fans have been openly racist against members of their own team.
I have no time for racism or people not accepting others for any reason of race, gender, sexuality etc and back the English players if they feel they need to walk off the pitch. However, England does need to get its own house in order as well, even if it is only a small number of total boneheads that lower their reputation. I wonder if they'd walk off the pitch if their own fans were being racist?
