Four football fans, said to be Chelsea supporters, were ordered off a train on Sunday night following claims they were making racist chants.
The group were evicted from a Euston to Manchester service following the Capital One Cup Final at 10.30pm.
Transport police were called to the service and boarded at Stoke following complaints from other passengers where they threw the supporters off.
quote:
One witness told Sportsmail: 'It was horrendous. They were Chelsea fans and they were being nasty and offensive. One passenger, a black man, moved carriages because he was disgusted with them.
'One girl was crying. The police got on and marched them off the train.'
quote:
Referring the latest allegations, a British Transport Police spokesman said: 'Shortly after 10.30pm on Sunday, 1 March, officers were called to meet a Euston-to-Manchester Piccadilly train at Stoke, following reports of racist and abusive behaviour by a number of passengers, said to be football fans.
'Colleagues from Staffordshire Police also attended. Officers asked four men to leave the train at Stoke. We have spoken to two witnesses, and investigations continue.

Why weren't they arrested and/or charged on the spot? I know its supposedly illegal in France, but not UK i'm guessing? Lack of evidence?

That can't happen in Europe. I was told they are a beacon of tolerance while we rednecks in the state treat our minorities like chattel. Rabble, rabble, rabble.....

Why would an American be calling for the arrest of people making racist chants on a train?

When's the last time you've heard racist chants on a train in America?

Of course, racism manifest itself in totally different ways in different places but I would agree that racist chanting on the train and barring entry seems a particularly English tradition.

I could be misinterpreting what he was saying, but in general, I find it weird when Americans think it's acceptable or even laudable for European countries to arrest people for saying stuff that's offensive. For example, when Man U fans sang about the Hillsborough disaster, fans were arrested, etc.
Edit: Obviously blocking people on a train is a crime.
