Zero tolerance on abusive chants

Last updated : 19 February 2006 By Editor

Tottenham and the Premier League have devised a scheme asking supporters at White Hart Lane to send a text to report fans taking part in abusive songs and chants.

The government has backed the initiative’s introduction within football. Sports minister Richard Caborn said: "I compliment Spurs on such a positive step. It is a significant message to fans to be supportive, not abusive."
