Uefa president Michel Platini considering appeal to increase paltry racism fine on Serbian FA Uefa was struck by the level of criticism the sanctions received in England, and at the reaction of the FA, whose general secretary Alex Horne said an opportunity to send a strong message had been missed. With Platini considering a rare appeal against a decision of the independent disciplinary body, the regulations used to govern the sort of disorder and abuse heard in Serbia will now be reviewed. There is a view within Uefa that the current regulations do not offer the disciplinary body enough scope to take stronger action. In particular the use of fines against associations is seen as of limited use in regulating supporter behaviour. The current regulations allow for five-match bans for players guilty of racist conduct, but clubs or officials are only fined. Fines for clubs or associations whose supporters use racial abuse are specified at just 20,000, well below the level for breaches of marketing regulations. Caulker's club coach, Andre Villas-Boas, said yesterday that Uefa should take stronger action. "Words are not really enough," he said. I keep ­saying the same - actions are decisive. I am not sure if Uefa once again sets a good example. We believe that twice this season on Uefa fixtures. First on the under-21 game and another one on the Lazio game [in the Europa League]. So we are waiting for a little bit more, that's how we feel about the situation. Villas Boas said he would respect a black player who left the field because of racist abuse. It is a difficult situation to address. As a manager you try to calm them and support them. It is a personal decision. If it is difficult for them to be on the pitch at that time we certainly as managers have to respect. Villas Boas said Caulker was disappointed at his two-match ban. He is disappointed. It is a waiting game now what the FA decides. He is disappointed with the situation but we have to wait and see.
