2 June 2023
Prospect has condemned the abuse faced by referee Anthony Taylor following the UEFA Europa League final.
Mike Clancy, General Secretary of Prospect, said:
“The abuse Anthony Taylor and his family received traveling back from Budapest following the UEFA Europa League final was utterly disgraceful.
“No-one should face threats or abuse for doing their job, nor should they have to fear for the safety of their family. Our members working as top-level sporting officials are no different.”
