Terrible decision by UEFA to play it there in the first place

It’s an indictment of the selection. If player safety cannot be ensured, there should be no question of selecting such a host.

This is an absolute farce.
What happens if Armenia qualify for Euro 2020?

Exactly I'd imagine Baku is a lovely city and their stadium is an amazing stadium but if as you say a players safety can't be assured then it shouldn't have been considered. What if two Armenian teams (I know very unlikely) had of made the final? What if Armenia qualify for Euro 2020? (again I know very unlikely)- They'll have to be placed which assures them they won't play in Baku. Which I'm not 100% sure can be done. Edited by lassassinblanc - 21 May 2019 at 1:11pm |

Remember in 1998-1999 when we had games against Yugoslavia shifted around due to the geo political situation. Unless Yugoslavia had been barred from competing in the Euro 2000 qualifiers, that was the only sensible thing that could have been done. But in this instance, a venue was selected, when there are others to choose from, where the geo political sitiation is fraught, and is now impacting what happens on the pitch.

I wonder if Mickhi making a political point here - no way anything would have happened to him, the Azeri's would have had him guarded to within an inch of his life. You can be sure UEFA had them well waned too

Quite possible he's making a political stance as unlike British-Armenian fans, he was told he'd be granted a visa for the game. However, it's a decision he shouldn't have to take and shows the utter stupidity & greed from UEFA to stage the game there considering the travel difficulties for fans.
How they've secured 3 group games and a 1/4 final in the Euros is a disgrace.

Sadly the case. Just look at Russia and Qatar. Russia obviously did a good job but no doubt some serious payments were made. Qatar should never have got it and it should have been a joint bid with a number of countries in the region.

Chelsea fans not happy with the club.
"We are extremely disappointed that Chelsea FC have been unable or unwilling to help Chelsea supporters overcome the travel, expense and logistics in order for them to support the team in a European final," the statement read. "The lack of a statement from Chelsea FC is also disappointing.

Nearly as pathetic as the champions of the premiership not been able to sell out their home games all season ? Mind you maybe a lot of the fans are not deluded and don’t want to be seen as propping up a horrible human rights abusive regime

It's in f**king Baku. It's a disaster to get to, it's a weeknight, any number of the fans will already have been all over Europe following them in the Europa League, it necessitates another three days off work; I can see why they can't sell 6,000 tickets for it. Baku was literally a provincial Soviet backwater until about 30 years ago.

Lamps will be managing the blues next season(1/4).It's too early for the geezer. They should give it to El Loco(22/1) with fat Frank as his assistant/chief spymaster.
