Former Blues football hooligan Barrington Patterson says England should have walked off the pitch after black players were subjected to disgusting racist abuse in Bulgaria.
The ex-kickboxer, who now devotes himself to charity work and helping the homeless, spoke out on Twitter following last night's Euro 2020 qualifier.
The game was temporarily suspended twice in the first half after Raheem Sterling and Aston Villa's Tyrone Mings were targeted with sick racist abuse by home fans.
Pictures inside the ground showed a section of Bulgarian fans, dressed fully in black, doing Nazi salutes.
The Manchester City star was booed with both Sterling and Mings subjected to disgusting monkey noises.
England won the game 6-0 with Sterling scoring twice.
Angry Barrington - known to all as One Eyed Baz - tweeted his disgust at the abuse and said: "It needs stamping out wherever, at home and away. I would have liked to see England team walk off in defiance.
"No matter what team you support racism needs kicking out of the game.
"If you go to any game and chant monkey n***** whatever then shame on you. You are teaching the next generation of youth that this is acceptable, rant over have a blessed day."
Mings had made a complaint to the assistant referee and England captain Harry Kane with about 30 minutes played in Sofia.
Kane then went to Croatian referee Ivan Bebek with play stopped for five minutes as an announcement went out around the ground.
The stadium announcer told home fans the game would be suspended again or even completely abandoned if the chanting continued.
Just before half-time, the game was halted again, this time for around two minutes.
Bulgarian captain Ivelin Popov could be seen arguing with home supporters at the break, pleading with them to stop the monkey chants and abuse.
Uefa have a three-step protocol for dealing with racism at matches.

At half-time, ITV pundits Ian Wright, Lee Dixon and Roy Keane condemned the sick abuse.
Former Arsenal star Dixon said: “It’s got to be stamped out and you’ve got to be firm."
“That was horrible,” added Roy Keane.
Chris Kamara wrote on social media: "Please don’t let the racists win.
"Do not call this game off."
European football's governing body Uefa is expected to conduct a review.
