Ashley Williams unconcerned by racist chants in Bulgaria

Williams unconcerned by racist chants

Wales defender Ashley Williams has revealed that he is not concerned by possible racist chanting during their Euro 2012 qualifier against Bulgaria in Sofia on Tuesday.

The Bulgarian Football Federation are currently being investigated by UEFA after their fans allegedly racially abused England players during their qualifier in September.

"I haven't given it a minute's thought, it's not something I'm worried about," said Williams.

"We've worked hard in the UK to kick it out and I haven't received anything [racist chanting] really in the last few years.

Bulgaria seems to be a country that it's still there knocking about, a bit of racism, so hopefully they can kick it out as well."

Wales can not qualify for next year's finals, but they can still finish third in Group G if results go their way on Tuesday.
