Reading striker Jason Roberts says that he will not support the 'Kick It Out' campaign by wearing a T-shirt this weekend because the campaign have not done enough to stamp out racism.

Reading striker Jason Roberts has revealed that will not wear a 'Kick It Out' T-shirt ahead of the Royals' Premier League clash with Liverpool.

The campaign, that aims to stamp out racism, begins its annual week of action today but the 34-year-old believes that the group have not done enough following the separate cases of Luis Suarez and John Terry last season.

"I won't wear one," Roberts told BBC Sport. "I find it hard to wear a T-shirt after what happened last year."

With regards to Terry's case, the Chelsea captain has today accepted his four-match ban for racially abusing Queens Park Rangers defender Anton Ferdinand.
