Euro 2012 Fans Will Go Home In Coffins - Star Warns

ENGLAND legend Sol Campbell has urged fans not to go to Euro 2012 in Ukraine and Poland unless they want to return in a coffin. The ex-Arsenal and Spurs star warned they face threats of racism and violence. Campbell, who won 73 caps for the Three Lions and played in a record six tournaments, said: �Stay at home, watch it on TV. Don�t risk it because you could end up coming back in a coffin.� He blasted European football�s governing body UEFA for letting this summer�s championships take place in the host countries. Campbell, 37, told BBC1�s Panorama: �They were wrong, because what they should say is that if you want this tournament you sort your problems out. �Until we see a massive improvement, you are never going to get the tournament.� Tonight�s programme shows fans in Poland and Ukraine giving Nazi salutes, taunting black players and joining in anti-Semitic chants. The fear of �possible racist attacks� has led to the families of black England stars Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain scrapping plans to attend the tournament. But UEFA defended its decision, saying the event gave the hosts a chance �to confront societal issues�.
