Ferdinand: 'UEFA are not serious at all on racism'
England players have responded negatively to UEFA's punishment of the Serbian FA over racist chants from its fans:
Uefa are not serious at all on racism. Fines do not work at all. They have zero impact on federations/clubs/fans/players. #fact
From @rioferdy5 on Twitter:Uefa need to talk to this generation.....they don't seem to be up to date on this issue?? Harsh punishments needed as a deterrent #simple
From @rioferdy5 on Twitter:I see UEFA have made a mockery once again of racism in football,absolute joke, bet it would’ve been different if it was the other way round!
From @Johnruddy86 on Twitter:
