Liverpool 'to take action against fan who labelled praying Muslims a disgrace'

Liverpool reportedly intend to take action against a supporter who labelled two Muslim men praying at Anfield a "disgrace".

Stephen Dodd is believed to have posted a picture to Twitter of Asif Bodi and Abubakar Bhula on their knees in a stairwell at the Merseyside ground.

The tweet, which was posted after the Reds' goalless draw with Blackburn Rovers in the FA Cup quarter-finals last month, was reported to police, but the authorities decided that it was not deemed a criminal offence.

According to the Daily Mail, the police returned the matter to Liverpool Football Club and the top-flight outfit has vowed to take 'appropriate action' against the supporter, who could potentially face a stadium ban.
