I think people are fed up with most of the politically correct guff that's taken us over, it's not just sport fans

The government and most politicians should leave it to the West Midlands Police as their current intelligence has been proved to be absolutely spot on.

So, do you think that Maccabi fans should be banned from the game?

Yes is the simple answer and it has nothing to do with religion.

Would that be fair given the Muslim influence in Birmingham?
Would it not be best for the police to be augmented with additional resources? Don't you think there is an anti-Israel element to this ban?

Why?, as the Police's job is to weigh the security risk and then make a rational, reasoned decision, it happens a fair amount when it comes to football matches.

Or any of these?

Or Eintracht Frankfurt vs Napoli at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in Naples, Italy.

I think the Police are looking at a bunch of football-following hooligans and seeing them as just that. I don't think they should be given special treatment because of the country they hail from.

But there's a context. An extant antisemitism context. Had the scene been different, a ban could be justified if additional resources to police the crowds couldn't be found.
