General Football 2013

Legia Warsaw were slapped with a €30,000 fine after their fans were found guilty of racism in a previous round of Champions League qualifiers.

The club were also ordered to close the Ultras stand of the stadium for their home leg decider against Romanian side Steaua Bucharest.

The Legia fans were incensed and provided a incredible pyro show before the game to portray their anger at UEFA.

It didn’t intimidate the opposition however, as they went on to score two goals in the opening 10 minutes to effectively end the tie.

As cool as the tifo and pyro show is, racism is very much not cool.

The word UEFA is seen, before turning into a huge wall of fire. The huge banner in the middle reads ‘Ultra Extreme Fanatical Atmosphere’.

Anyone read about this?

Isn't Ngoo on loan there?

I thought the FA had clarified a couple of seasons ago that teams have to stop kicking out balls when players are 'injured' and it was the referees responsibility to stop play if he thinks its necessary?

Must admit I have some sympathy for Yeovil based on what I've read, seems suspicious to me and I'd say that heir is an argument that Birmingham were the ones being unsporting.

What would you think if it had been Liverpool in that situation? What would you expect our players to do?

I think it depends on the circumstances I think it's difficult to say outside the context of the incident and match.

I don't see the point in complaining to the FA about it being unsporting as there is nothing they can do.

As for what we'd do, we were in a similar situation in the last minute of the 2006 FA Cup final and we returned the ball to West Ham, and it was from their poor clearance that Gerrard scored the equalizer.
