ENGLAND captain John Terry is to be quizzed by cops over an alleged racist outburst at fellow soccer star Anton Ferdinand.
Chelsea defender Terry, 30, could be charged with racial harassment.
It carries a penalty of up to seven years' jail.
Police are launching a full criminal inquiry after detectives examined video taken at a Premier League game between London sides Chelsea and Ferdinand's club Queens Park Rangers on Sunday October 23.
Terry will be interviewed under caution over allegations he called Ferdinand, left, a "f****** black ****".

he will get more time than most killers probably
What did Ferdinand say to provoke it?
Oh silly me....
seven years’ jail...wow
Police seems a bit much just for a word.
What’s funny is that from the quote he is in trouble for ...
“”f****** black ****”
... “black” is the only word they can show.
Just wait until they discover he said ****** ****** right after that. I hope I don’t get in trouble spelling that out.
The EU has lost its mind, 7 years for calling someone a name, LESS than 4 years for disembowelling a man.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!?!?
You spelled it wrong. It’s * before * except after *.
Typical tabloid hysteria.
Its only seven years if you are someone who commits a campaign of long term racial harassment which includes violent physical threats or actual violence.
This act by Terry will get him no more than a caution by the police if he is found to have committed it (which he did, its clear on the tape)
Nothing.
John Terry is a scumbag.
Thank you for clearly and concisely explaining the situation.
The madness thats is England. He was charged today. This is what happens when you do not have a US style Constitution and an independent judiciary which is pledged to uphold it. Imagine if the leftists had the force of criminal law behind them to quash their opponents with claims of racism and “homophobia”.
