Ferdinand hits out at England fans

England are facing the possibility of playing a game in front of an empty stadium because of the behaviour of fans who chanted disgraceful songs about the Manchester United defender and his brother.

“You expect+accept banter from fans on the terraces as its part of what makes the game great,but racism is not banter,& from ya own fans. WOW,” Ferdinand tweeted.

“Always a small minority who ruin it for others. Let’s not jump to conclusions + assume though as it might just have been banter. We’ll see after the investigation.”
