"Night of Shame" Empty "Night of Shame"

Post by Lolly Mon Jul 12, 2021 3:19 pm

The Football Association are facing UEFA charges after a night of shame that saw hundreds of ticketless thugs smash their way into Wembley for the European Championship final.

European football’s governing body are investigating and could decide to throw the book at the FA following lawless scenes at the national stadium that may have ramifications for the 2030 UK and Ireland World Cup bid.

The Metropolitan Police are also facing serious questions with numbers inadequate and stewards – many of whom on less than £10 an hour - left powerless to prevent thugs breaking down a door to pour into the concourses and seats, while others violently tailgated those with tickets after evading woefully inadequate security checkpoints.

Why were people allowed to gather from 11am. Many would have been drunk by kick off. I wonder how much the FA will be fined this time.

Why not the Italian FA as it was considered to be their home game?
