Football fan arrested for alleged racist abuse during League One fixture between Bradford City and Luton Town as clubs decide to hide affected player's identity
A man has been arrested for alleged racist abuse during a League One fixture between Bradford City and Luton Town that took place on Saturday afternoon. The incident occurred in the first half of the match - as one of Bradford's players was allegedly targeted with racist comments that came from the away end. A club statement from Bradford City read: 'Bradford City AFC is aware of an allegation of racist abuse from an individual in the away section towards one of our players during today's Sky Bet League One game against Luton Town. 'An arrest has been made by West Yorkshire Police, with the individual in question swiftly removed from the University of Bradford Stadium. We will fully cooperate with all ongoing police investigations. 'Bradford City AFC strongly condemns racism and discrimination in all forms. We have a zero tolerance policy to such, unacceptable behaviour. 'The club will be making no further comment at this time.' A statement from Luton Town read: 'We regret to report that we have been made aware of an allegation of racist abuse directed towards a Bradford City player during our game at Valley Parade on Saturday afternoon. 'West Yorkshire Police have confirmed that an individual in the away section was arrested. 'As a club we condemn racism and discrimination in all forms. This behaviour has no place in society and it has absolutely no place at Luton Town. Ever. 'We stand by any player who suffers at the hands of such abuse. It needs to stop. 'As a club we will now fully support the ongoing police investigation.' It comes a day after Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo reported racist abuse from a fan during Bournemouth's Premier League fixture against Liverpool on Friday. The incident occurred as he was preparing to take a throw-in before he appeared to be heckled by a Liverpool fan just 28 minutes into the affair at Anfield. Semenyo brought the incident to the attention of referee Anthony Taylor, and the match was promptly paused temporarily. It has been alleged that the person who directed the abuse at Semenyo was a Liverpool fan sitting in a wheelchair in the bottom row of Anfield's Main Stand. A supporter was then escorted out of the stands by police while at half-time, an anti-discrimination message was read out to the crowd inside Anfield. During the game, Daily Mail Sport's Football Editor, Ian Ladyman, reported from the crowd: 'Two or three minutes before the stoppage I did see Semenyo turn to look at a guy seated in a wheelchair at the front of the Main Stand who was saying something to him quite forcibly. 'The look on the Bournemouth player's face said all you needed to know.' The Premier League released on official statement during the game, taking to their Match Centre account on X. It read: 'Tonight's match between Liverpool Football Club and AFC Bournemouth was temporarily paused during the first half after a report of discriminatory abuse from the crowd, directed at Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo. This is in line with the Premier League's on-field anti-discrimination protocol. 'The incident at Anfield will now be fully investigated. We offer our full support to the player and both clubs. Racism has no place in our game, or anywhere in society. 'We will continue to work with stakeholders and authorities to ensure our stadiums are an inclusive and welcoming environment for all. Last night at Anfield will stay with me forever - not because of one person's words, but because of how the entire football family stood together. To my @afcbournemouth teammates who supported me in that moment, to the @LiverpoolFC players and fans who showed their true… — Antoine Semenyo (@semenyo924) August 16, 2025 Semenyo took to social media following the incident, as he wrote in a statement on X: 'Last night at Anfield will stay with me forever - not because of one person's words, but because of how the entire football family stood together. 'To my @afcbournemouth teammates who supported me in that moment, to the @LiverpoolFC players and fans who showed their true character, to the @premierleague officials who handled it professionally - thank you. Football showed its best side when it mattered most. 'Scoring those two goals felt like speaking the only language that truly matters on the pitch. This is why I play - for moments like these, for my teammates, for everyone who believes in what this beautiful game can be. 'The overwhelming messages of support from across the football world remind me why I love this sport. We keep moving forward, together.' The 25-year-old also shared three images with powerful statements.

First Match of the Day episode without Lineker aired as Mark Chapman kicks off new season joined by ex-England stars
A NEW-look Match of the Day aired for the first time since Gary Lineker's BBC exit last night — with Mark Chapman in the hot seat to kick off the new season. Chapman, 51 was joined by ex-England strikers Alan Shearer and Wayne Rooney as they analysed games including Man City's trip to Wolves and Aston Villa hosting Newcastle. 4 4 Fan favourite 'Chappers' was chosen as a 'safe pair of hands' to front the long-running show's first post- Lineker episode, TV insiders said. He will share hosting duties with Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates as BBC bosses fill the void left by Lineker after 26 years in the famous studio. Ex Man Utd and Everton player Rooney, 39 - a hugely popular guest pundit last season - signed an £800,000 BBC deal and appeared comfortable alongside Shearer, 55, and Chappers. A TV source said: 'They wanted things off to a smooth start and Chappers is seen as both popular and a safe pair of hands. 'Shearer also provided stability while Wayne has been a real hit with viewers so far and will appear regularly. 'It was quite surprising to have an all-male panel in this day and age, but Kelly and Gabby will both be fronting the show soon.' We told in May how Lineker, 64, was leaving the BBC by mutual agreement after 26 years after an anti-semitism row. The star - who had been due to front the Beeb's 2026 World Cup coverage - is moving to ITV Saturday prime time show, The Box. His new show will see 12 celebs put in boxes and given daring challenges, and is touted as the successor to Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway. It has been described as a cross between I'm A Celebrity and SAS: Who Dares Wins.
