Bournemouth condemn disgusting racial abuse aimed at Junior Stanislas and his family on Twitter after he struck the winner in the Cherries' Championship win at Stoke

Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake has condemned the racial abuse suffered by Junior Stanislas following Saturday's win at Stoke, calling it 'disgusting and completely intolerable'.

Stanislas was subjected to racist slurs and insults about his family by an individual on Twitter after scoring the Cherries' winning goal in the 1-0 Sky Bet Championship victory at the bet365 Stadium.

Blake vowed to do all the club can in identifying the person concerned and wants the 'strongest possible action' taken against them.
