Rangers Idiots Cause Backlash For English Fans!

UEFA general secretary David Taylor is confident there will be no repeat of the rioting which marred the UEFA Cup final when the Champions League reaches its climax on Wednesday.

But Russian police have been warned they will act "very heavily" if any trouble starts.

Chelsea and Manchester United fans are set to descend on Moscow for the first all-English final in the competition and Scotsman Taylor predicts tough policing will quell the threat of huge public disorder.

Taylor: "We are never complacent but certainly we are confident there will not be the same vast numbers (of fans) that there were in Manchester.

"We also believe the style of crowd management with the Russian authorities and the police will be somewhat different to the English police management.

"We've had lots and lots of meetings with the (Russian) security authorities and they have been very helpful, even allowing fans to use Red Square itself as the venue for their Champions League festival area.

"It shows they are going to be very welcoming but I'm sure also there will be some very tough policing if there is any sign of disorder."
