As Neil suggested in the Chelsea v Barca thread, it looks like the F.A. are going to great lengths to keep this under wraps...

I heard of this too when it happened but I was afraid to post anything in case of incriminations.

This rumour has been flying around since the Spurs Chelsa game, it was queried by the THST with the club who issued an official letter denying there was anything said.

"I am happy to, unequivocally, tell you that there was absolutely nothing said on the pitch of a racist nature. We certainly would not cover up any racist incident. It was a nasty, unsupported rumour which started doing the rounds in the press, who themselves now admit it was wrong information.Having spoken to at least two of the players involved I am quite clear that this is total nonsense and I should be grateful if you could pass this on to whoever is still minded to believe there is any truth in it."

Didn't Ferdinand say in his book that one of the England squad was a known rascist?
