English soccer fans warned to stay away from Euro 2012 "because you could end up coming back in a coffin".

Sol Campbell, the former England international, has warned England fans to stay away from Euro 2012 "because you could end up coming back in a coffin".

He said Uefa was wrong to choose Poland and Ukraine to host the tournament because it put supporters in danger of racism and violence.

The former Arsenal and Tottenham defender told BBC Panorama: "Stay at home, watch it on TV. Don't even risk it ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin."

 His warning came as the family of two black England players said they would not go to Euro 2012. Full story...
