There were horrible scenes in England's U21 1-0 win against Serbia U21. According to Jordan Henderson, players were racially abused and attacked with missiles. Despite the fact that England have now qualified for Euro 2013, it has been overlooked by the disgraceful actions by Serbia. I think that the Serbian U21 national team should be banned from all competitive competitions for a certain period of time and the players that racially abused others should be fined.

Racism needs to stop now. Its all well and good giving players bans, but do they really care? For example when Luis Suarez racially abused Patrice Evra in October 2011 he received an eight match ban. And everyone was thinking ' surely this means that no-one would ever be racist again would they? Everyone wants to play every Premier league game.' But then two months later John Terry decides to racially abuse Anton Ferdinand. This shows that players don't care if they get match bans or if they get fined three weeks wages. So the FA needs to think about punishing them in a more severe way because what they are doing now is just useless.
