Black community fear racism at Russian 2018 World Cup
THE BLACK community have voiced concerns about travelling to Russia to watch the 2018 World Cup fearing that racism will be rife.
Following news that England had lost out on its bid to host the 2018 games, members of the black community instantly frowned upon the chosen country.
Choice FM radio host, Martin Jay told his Twitter followers that he would instead watch the game from the comfort of his home as opposed to travelling to the Eastern European country.
Jay said: "Wow Russia hosts 2018 World Cup ! That's a TV watch for me then !!!”
While Facebook user Alexander Clarke jokingly added: “i wont be russian to go there!! lol”
Despite winning backing from Prince William, former England captain David Beckham and Prime Minister, David Cameron, England were unsuccessful in securing the much-coveted bid.
In a major embarrassment, England apparently did not even make it through to the second round of the voting in Switzerland, which was won overall by Russia.
