Inflatable bananas, racist fans

A mere slap on the wrist as the club was fined €50,000 for fans who rained racial abuse, waved inflatable bananas, and displayed offensive banners against former players Mario Balotelli and Sulley Muntari.

Balotelli himself got docked €10,000 for some perceived offensive gesture (raising a finger to the lips, wtf). Go figure. Got to love that balance of justice though, eh? He should have walked off the pitch with his team following him. I heard that gesture got plenty of accolades a month ago.
