The men pictured above are wanted by Hampshire police after being suspected of racial and homophobic chanting which was directed at Portsmouth’s Sol Campbell.

Officers are asking the public to help trace the men.

Supt Neil Sherrington from Hampshire police said: “As part of our investigation into indecent chanting at Fratton Park, we have identified 16 people we would like to speak to.

“Our inquiry is aimed at identifying and putting before the court those individuals who engaged in unacceptable behaviour at this public event.

 

“Their abuse caused distress to some supporters and was targeted at an individual.

“We want to send a clear message that abuse of this kind will not be tolerated and that we are taking robust action.

“I’d urge anyone who recognises these people to contact us as soon as possible.”

 I have no problem with banter between fans and players but the minute it becomes personal then I think that is wrong and disgusting.
