Что во вторник писалось про Зенит на бибисях Unfortunately the club also have a hard core of racists among their supporters. Zenit are the only club in Russia never to have signed a black player, and their fans were accused of racist taunts during the Uefa Cup win over Marseille earlier this season.
Marseille defender Ronald Zubar said: "They threw a banana at us and made monkey sounds."
Manager Dick Advocaat has even admitted that the fans' attitude has affected his transfer policy.
"The problem is our fans," he says. "I would be happy to sign anyone but the fans don't like black players.
"I don't understand how they could pay so much attention to skin colour. For me, there's no difference between white, black or red.
"But the fans are the most important thing Zenit have. That's why, in future, I have to ask them outright how they'll react if we sign a dark-skinned player.
"If the fans don't agree with me, I won't do it. I won't buy a player who won't be accepted by the fans."
