UEFA take the ****!

UEFA, in their wisdom, have decided to fine Ferencvaros a paltry amount for their racist behaviour. Just imagine if the shoe was on the other foot. They would have thrown the book and entire library at us, had we been accused of this. Yes, being accused is enough if you're Millwall. No need to worry about little things like "guilt"!

So the Hungarians go unpunished for the stabbings! What a surprise!

The Hungarian champions have only been fined 38,500 euros (26,600 pounds), which is chicken feed in fairness.

A disciplinary hearing of the ruling body was told that Ferencvaros supporters directed monkey chants towards Millwall's players and that Millwall fans had been subjected to aggressive behaviour inside the ground, UEFA said on its official website.

The fine also took into account the fact that Ferencvaros had five players yellow-carded in the match and that their fans set off flares, which is against UEFA rules.

Friday's hearing did not deal with the stabbings of four English fans that took place in Budapest city centre before the first round, second leg match which Ferencvaros won 3-1 to advance 4-2 on aggregate.
