‘Look daddy there’s some P****’ – Crystal Palace team doctor racially abused by three-year-old outside Selhurst Park
The Crystal Palace team doctor was racially abused just yards away from Selhurst Park on Sunday.Dr Zafar Iqbal was taking his two youngest children to watch the Premier League final day clash with Bournemouth.2

The vile racist abuse is alleged to have taken place just outside Selhurst Park

However, before entering the stadium, the former Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool doctor was left ‘speechless’ after the racial abuse from a three-year-old.Dr Iqbal, who is head of sports medicine for the Eagles, claims the child’s father tried to ‘scold’ him for his remarks following the incident.He tweeted: “Devastated and speechless. Taking my 2 youngest kids to their first ever game at Selhurst park and walking a few hundred yards from the stadium a 3 y old shouted to his dad – “Look daddy there’s some P****”. His dad ‘attempted to scold’ him.“Racism is not just a football problem.”2

He continued: “I didnt know how to react. I couldnt tell off the 3 y old kid. Should I have said something to the dad while my 2 young kids were there?”The game itself was a thrilling affair, with both sides throwing caution to the wind on the final day.But the abuse of Dr Iqbal, a British Muslim Pakistani, will undoubtedly leave a sour taste in the mouths of Eagles supporters. Crystal Palace released a statement regarding the incident, which read: “We utterly deplore the racist comments made to our Club doctor while he was heading to today’s match with his children.“It must have been an awful experience for him and his family and this disgraceful incident shows that the scourge of racism remains in our society.“Crystal Palace Football Club is committed to inclusivity and diversity and we will offer Dr Zaf our full support if he chooses to take the matter further.”
