No Washington Redskins at Wembley Stadium. Their name is offensive and a slur.
This coming season the Washington Redskins American football team will be playing at Wembley Stadium. Their name and logo is currently surrounded by controversy as it described in the dictionary and widely regarded as a racial slur.
There is no place for racism in sports in the UK, of any kind.
