Four Chelsea football supporters, including a former policeman, have gone on trial in Paris for racist violence over allegations they pushed a black man who tried to board a metro train.
The fans, who were in the French capital for a match between their team and Paris Saint Germain in February 2015, were among supporters who chanted: 'We are racist, we are racist and that's the way we like it'.
They deny their acts were racist in nature, but could face prison terms if convicted.
Joshua Parsons, 22, a former pupil of the elite Millfield school in England, now working in the building trade, and James Fairbairn, 25, a civil engineer, were the only two among the four to appear in court.
