Updates on Poland 2012

[superbanane.livejournal.com]

I was looking for some news concerning Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine because I wanted to see what's going on there and I must say, I'm kinda worried now. The situation seems quite difficult to handle for the government, just have a look at what the papers say :

Daily Mail:

The Polish prime minister says his country may not be able to co-host the 2012 European Championship unless authorities and football clubs ensure the safety of supporters in stadiums.
Donald Tusk met football authorities and club owners on Wednesday to pressure them into using strong measures to exclude hooligans from stadiums.
Following the meeting, Tusk says stadium security needs to be a priority following the unrest last week in the Polish Cup.
Tusk convened the meeting following Legia Warsaw's win over Lech Poznan that caused at least £8,000 (40,000 zlotys) in damage to the Bydgoszcz stadium. Police have arrested 26 hooligans so far over the incident.
Poland is co-hosting Euro 2012 with Ukraine.

I wanted to know if there are some Poles on ontd_fb who could talk about what's going on with hooliganism, and if it is a real threat as regards Poland co-hosting Euro 2012 next summer. I didn't find more about what Donal Tusk said so I wondered if you guys could enlighten us on this crappy situation. Seriously I hope they find a way to solve this issue, it would totally suck if Poland had to give up on hosting Euro 2012 (even though I know it's unlikely but...oh well ! idk :/)
