They were bailed on a £2,000 surety to appear in January.  If they don't, which they probably won't, they lose the money and will have a warrant out for their arrest which means they can't get back into the UK. Magistrates aren't always daft.

That's a pretty handy way of cutting Legia off in the future too, should they ever draw an English club.

Indeed. Them or Poland play here again, Border Force will have the airports covered.

After all the fuss and drama and it's terrible that they weren't allowed in, take a guess how many of them were outside the ground?

700. Every Legia fan who turned up could have got in with room to spare.

I must have missed this, I remember saying that there didn't look to be anywhere near 3000 in that car park.

So am I missing something here, why didn't they just distribute the tickets they did have to those there? And if they didn't ever have any intentions of going inside, why come to the ground rather than staying where they were?

Strange situation, strange people.

Nice beer though. I sampled an imported 'Lech' lager last night and was very impressed with both it's flavour and it's general refreshing qualities.

The whole thing is very strange.  If it appears that Legia refused to distribute the tickets or returned them they should get a lengthy ban.

Legia Warsaw fined €100k and BANNED from selling tickets to its away supporters for five UEFA matches after fan trouble in Birmingham.

Legia also ordered to contact Aston Villa to pay for damages caused by fans.

Five games would potentially include the final. If we meet them there we'll surely get double the allocation we otherwise would have.
