    And just how would they go about that then?

    It’s a social media issue and any football organizations have no powers whatsoever over Facebook, Twitter etc.

    I dont know but i wouldn't keep playing whilst no names are abusing me.... and if its a big enough name to make other's follow.... then im sure once were picking the English team from non league n sunday football. Things would change....
    Saying its not footballs job is passing the buck. Racist vile comments need to stop.

    social media couldn't give a monkeys weather they play or not in fact the bosses wouldn't even know who they are.

    True. The only way you might get them to sit up is if all the players and fans canceled their social media accounts but that hasn’t got a cat in hells chance of happening.
    Theirs plenty of people shouting what should be done but ask them to cancel their Facebook and Twitter accounts and they’ll just bow their heads and turn a deaf ear. Sadly that’s the way it is most people will vote for anything so long as it doesn’t effect them directly.
