Turkey-Switzerland

Well I won't go as far as to say the Swiss started cos I didn't see the film before it started, but from what I saw on the news this morning the kick by Huggel which started the tunnel fracas was most certainly NOT in self defence. The guy he kicked was a coach, wasn't even looking and it was certainly pre-meditated - you could see him looking and creeping up on him and then kicking him right in the back / legs.

Sepp Blatter says he is speaking as FIFA president and not as a Swiss, but his suggestion is very much that Turkey will get all the s**t.

Personally I think there's a danger Switzerland could be expelled, replaced by Turkey. And if they were both expelled - what then ?

Incidentally Turkey not qualifying is way bigger than it even at first seems. Playing in Germany would almost be like playing at home for them.
