I'm afraid just chucking us out of the tournament would mean at the next tournament in which we've got a genuine chance of doing quite well the foreign equivalent of our idiots will do everything to provoke more English idiocy.

If the French knew they could round up anyone even vaguely involved and once they were back in England they'd be there forever passportless ......... they'd watch the trouble dissipate as the news percolated into even the thickest British fan's skull.
