Chelsea plan to send anti-Semitic fans on educational courses

Fans found to have been involved in abuse at Stamford Bridge may have to attend learning sessions or risk losing their season ticket

Chelsea are planning to deal with cases of anti-Semitism among the club's fans by sending them on educational courses, chairman Bruce Buck has said.

Blues owner Roman Abramovich, who is Jewish, is at the forefront of an initiative that aims to eradicate instances of anti-Semitism among supporters.
