Former Crawley Town FC manager John Yems has been banned from English soccer until June of 2024 for his racist behavior.
An independent commission banned Yems earlier this month after he was found to have credibly committed at least a dozen instances of racist conduct towards players he coached. The investigation into Yems’ conduct began in May after he was suspended in late April following “serious and credible” accusations of racist behavior.
The first documented instance of Yems’ behavior is from a Nigerian player. The player said Yems would ask him if he would eat “jerk chicken” in an apparent assumption that the player was of Caribbean descent. The player also recalled an instance “when he was playing darts in the canteen with Player 2, another Black player, when Mr. Yems asked what they were doing playing darts when people like them normally blow sharp objects through their mouths” before making a reference to Zulu warriors.
An Iraqi Muslim who played for Yems said that Yems would joke about him being a “terrorist.” Per the report, he said Yems would ask “of he slept with an AK47, and told that he could not have a GPS vest ‘because you people blow up stuff in vests.’” The player said that Yems would also repeatedly ask if he carried a bomb in his bag.was immediately a source of scrutiny
