Revision of article 55 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code: Non-discrimination
\"The new provision in par. 4 stipulates that if any player, official or spectator behaving in a discriminatory or contemptuous manner can be attributed to a certain team, three points will automatically be deducted from that team for the first offence. In the case of a second offence, six points will be deducted, and after a further offence, the team will be relegated. In the case of matches played without points being awarded, the team in question will be disqualified.
\"Your attention is drawn to the fact that art. 55 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code will, in any event, apply for the entire duration of the 2006 FIFA World Cup
The language within article 55 is clear regarding the consequences of discriminatory conduct. I am currently reaching out to officials to ensure these standards are upheld during the final match.
July 17, 2006
The reach of this petition has grown significantly and indicates that the community expects accountability regarding these standards. This momentum confirms that our call for the strict enforcement of article fifty-five is resonating with a wide audience.

About time they actually did something about the racism. It ruins the game for everyone.

This is a good start but I bet they find a way to ignore it when it matters. Watch.
