BREAKING: A former Crawley FC player has said allegations that the club's manager John Yems used racist language and forced non-white players to use different changing room are, in his view, true. TomSkyNews reports. Latest: 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube
The allegation that footballers from ethnically diverse backgrounds were segregated from white colleagues at Crawley Town FC would amount to modern day"apartheid", according to one anti-racism campaigner.
"It belongs in the past, not in the present, and not in the future, it's an ultra-low point in the fight against racism and discrimination." Last night Crawley Town held a fans' forum at their ground where supporters were told they could not ask questions about the matter because of the ongoing investigations.
The club was recently brought by American investors who suspended Yems eleven days ago when they discovered what was being alleged.The owners declined an interview request from Sky News but have previously described the allegations as"serious and credible".
