Euro 2012: Union chief fears racism in Poland and Ukraine

Europe`s leading players are at risk of being racially abused at this summer`s European Championship, the head of the worldwide union for footballers says, according to BBC Sport. Theo van Seggelen...
Europe`s leading players are at risk of being racially abused at this summer`s European Championship, the head of the worldwide union for footballers says, according to BBC Sport.
SeggelenTheo van Seggelen, secretary-general of FIFPro,  also fears visiting fans will face problems with Polish and Ukrainian supporters away from stadiums.
He said some fixtures will be played "in the middle of nowhere" and that Ukraine was not a suitable host nation.
"Ukraine will be very difficult for fans," Van Seggelen told BBC Sport.
"I think that this tournament will not be remembered for the atmosphere - that for me is 100% sure. Ukraine is not the ideal place to play this kind of event."
FIFPro`s own research into racism, violence and match-fixing in eastern Europe, published in February this year, revealed that just over 10% of professional players surveyed had been victims of violence, with over half of all those incidents blamed on supporters.
And, with 9.6% of players in the region claiming in the report they have been racially abused, Van Seggelen fears that teams playing at Euro 2012 may be subjected to similar abuse from Ukrainian and Polish supporters.
"We have to hope [the eastern European fans responsible for racism and violence] are not the same people who are watching the games in Poland and Ukraine [at Euro 2012] because then we have a real problem.
"I`m sure that the fans from the European countries who have qualified... will not be any problem. Four years ago in Switzerland and Austria it was fantastic.
"If the majority of fans are coming from these two countries [Poland and Ukraine], then I`m not 100% convinced that we will not have accidents, even in the stadiums."
"I think that Uefa is capable, with the support of the government, of preventing these kind of events. But I have more fear for what happens outside the stadium, especially for the fans, especially in Ukraine."
Both countries have invested heavily in infrastructure projects and new stadiums - Poland alone is understood to have spent around 20bn euros (around £18bn).
But criticism over preparations for the tournament still remain. Last week Uefa president Michel Platini hit out at hoteliers in Ukraine, describing many of them as "bandits and crooks" for setting exorbitant prices for accommodation.
The Ukrainian government has promised to address the issue within 30 days as it makes final preparations for the biggest sporting event to be held in the country since it gained independence following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991.
But for Van Seggelen other issues persist.
"There are some problems, especially in Ukraine, with the transportation," he said. "There are also problems with the language. These people do not speak other languages."
The draw for the tournament has also ensured that some of the giants of European football will meet during the group stage of the tournament.
But Van Seggelen is dismayed at some of the locations for the eight host cities - including the choice of Ukraine`s second largest city, Kharkiv, for the Group B match between Netherlands and Germany.
The old rivals are due to meet at the 38,500-capacity Metalist stadium on 13 June.
"At FIFPro we have some doubts about the choices of the locations in Poland and Ukraine," he added. "Holland against Germany is played in the smallest stadium in Ukraine, somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
"Football is about fans, and I don`t want to be too critical, but how is it possible that these kinds of games, which are highlights of the tournament, are played in these stadiums in the middle of nowhere?"

For Fan's Information: Euro-2012 Banned List

banned-listThree weeks before European Championship's start, the organizers published the regulations about banned objects and rules of conduct at the Euro-2012 stadiums. Everyone who is coming to Ukraine and Poland to watch the European football championship will find these regulations useful to know.
First of all, the organizers prohibit bringing objects that contradict stadiums' safety rules. These are explosives, firearms and cold steel, particulate pollutants, inflammable or toxic substances, pyrotechnic products, and all other objects that may be used as a weapon.
Umbrellas, bottles and other glassware, metal or plastic packing, alcoholic drinks, stimulators, narcotic or psychotropic substances also ended up in the banned list. Moreover, aficionados carrying materials that contain racist, xenophobic, political or religious propaganda won't be allowed at the Euro-2012 stadium.
According to the regulations published by Championship's organizers, it's forbidden to bring to the stadiums professional photo and audio equipment, laser pointers, bulky bags and rucksacks. Special attention is paid to banners that fans often bring with in order to support their favorite team.
Thus, Euro-2012 fans are allowed bringing flags and banners, which size exceeds 2x1,5 meters only with direct permission from the UEFA. At that, the official fan groups, which are going to use such banners, must inform UEFA representatives about this at least one day before the match. Otherwise the banners will be confiscated by stadium's guards. Smaller banners are freely allowed, provided that they are made from non-inflammable material and correspond to the national regulative norms and standards.
Furthermore, the Euro-2012 organizers forbid brining helmets, stools, folding-chairs, boxes and other large objects that exceed the size of 25x25x25 cm and can't be put under viewer's seat.
The ban also applies to mechanical and electrical acoustic devices, such as loudspeakers, horns, klaxons and famous vuvuzelas - long pipes that became the symbol of the World Cup 2010 in the South Africa. Moreover, advertising and commercial products are not allowed as well.
By the way, although smoking is officially prohibited at the Euro-2012 stadiums, fans are freely allowed to carry standard pocket lighters through.
Regulations also detail children's access to the stadiums. Children under 14 years are allowed to attend the Championship's matches only if accompanied by adults.
At the same time, the organizers note that the published banned list is not exhaustive. They stress that, if the guard should have doubts regarding some object carried by an aficionado to the stadium, arena's security service officer will decide whether to let it through or not.

Olsen leaves three spaces in Denmark party

olsenMorten Olsen has confirmed 20 of the Denmark players he will take to UEFA EURO 2012, with three further call-ups to be announced by 24 May at the latest.
Perhaps the most surprising inclusion is Évian Thonon Gaillard FC midfielder Thomas Kahlenberg, who has not been involved with the national team since autumn 2010. "He has played many games recently, and we have seen them all," said Olsen. "He may not be a fast player, but he is a fast-thinking player, and he can be a good asset at the tournament."
In addition to the 20 definite names, Manchester United FC goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim defender Jannik Vestergaard and FC Groningen forward Nicklas Pedersen have also been invited to join Denmark's training camp. The hopeful trio, though, are not assured of making up the remainder of the final squad next week. "I am at least going to watch the games this coming weekend before I decide," said Olsen.
Denmark face Brazil on 26 May and Australia on 2 June in their two pre-finals friendlies. Seven days later they meet the Netherlands in their opening Group B match in Kharkiv before switching to Lviv to play Portugal and Germany.
