The violent cocaine-fuelled ultras threatening to tarnish Euro 2024 A new breed of football hooligans who are fuelled by cocaine and a bloodthirsty desire for their team to win are plaguing the beautiful game. The balaclava-clad gangs are prowling the streets by stadiums waiting to attack anyone unprovoked. This Eddie McKay and his son, who travelled to Milan to watch their team Newcastle United play their first Champions League match.

And now that the proposal has been formally approved by the UEFA Executive Committee, Southgate’s headache over…

Euro 2024 could be the last time we see these six stars at a major tournament Euro 2024 could well be the final swansong for a number of big name players this summer. The sight of football icons such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Luka Modric playing on the major international stage for potentially one last time will be a sight to savour for football fans. But whilst it would be wrong to write off some of the finest talents the European game has ever seen, it’s safe to say a number of high-profile stars will not make it to the…

Would this incredible starting XI of Euro 2024 absentees actually win the whole thing? Euro 2024 will see some of the continent’s finest stars battle it out for European Championship glory, but for a number of high-profile players, they will be forced to watch from home like the rest of us.

Scratch beneath the surface though and you can sense that something big is coming to the Bavarian capital. Steve Clarke’s side kick off Euro 2024 with a game against the hosts on 14 June and as…

Uefa wants only captains to speak to refs at Euros Uefa has told teams at Euro 2024 that only captains will be allowed to approach referees to speak about decisions taken during games and other players doing so risk being booked.
