A twist in the road to Euro 2008

February 26, 2008

The overlord organisation Uefa has warned Spain they could be thrown out of this years European championships.

This could mean that Northern Ireland, who finished third in Spain’s group would be handed a place at the finals.

If the Spanish government tries to interfere in the election process of the Spanish FA then Uefa will put their foot down and all hell will break loose.

“Uefa and Fifa deal with these sort of issues very seriously. These are no empty threats - we will back them up,” said Uefa spokesman William Gaillard.

“It is similar to 1992 when Yugoslavia was suspended and Denmark, who finished second in the group, came in,” added Gaillard.
