Racist Chelsea fans stop black man boarding train

A video has emerged of a group of UK football fans stopping a black man boarding a train on the Paris Metro.

The footage obtained by the Guardian shows the Chelsea fans chanting as several of them block the train doors, pushing the man back on to the platform.

"We're racist, we're racist and that's the way we like it," they sing in the video filmed yesterday.

They leer at the man, appearing to threaten him, as he tries to ignore their taunts and push past.

Several other passengers are seen hurrying away from the commotion. Not one dares to defend the victim to his unruly accosters.

Chelsea fans were in the French capital on Tuesday local time as their club drew 1-1 with PSG in the Champions League.

It is understood the clip was filmed at the Richelieu-Drouot station prior to the game and the incident is being investigated by the FC.
