And again, both sets of fans have being doing this to the teams for years. Neutral venue with no fans is the only way to stop any issues. Your lot are used to holding games with no fans in attendance #crowdbanter 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G_Man1985 4,330 Report post Posted November 26, 2018 P. Pérez “Who’s going to guarantee our safety if we were to win in their stadium? We saw the fans before the match, imagine if we were to win. I have a wife and 3 kids, I can’t play football like this. My daughter was crying when she saw me and hugged me”https://t.co/RLqOJWjXIbPretty sad stuff 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was mentioned on Sunday night that Dec 8 in Abu Dhabi was being strongly rumoured even before the game was called off again so you may well be right. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HibeeJibee 7,824 Report post Posted November 27, 2018 41 minutes ago, Barry Ferguson's Hat said: Yemen, apparently. Better send for... Back in 1934 the North American qualifying for the World Cup got left so late that Mexico and USA both had to travel to Italy and held their playoff in Rome on the Thursday night before the tournament began on the Sunday with a full raft of knockout R1 ties. Mexico lost the playoff and went home immediately, USA were thrashed by Italy in R1 and so weren't far behind them. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will just be full of tourists. There won’t be nearly the same amount of trouble as there would be back in Argentina. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
