May result in them being thrown out of the next World Cup. I think with Turkey, they have had enough chances. It is harsh to punish the team - however it is the only way. The English have been threatened with it on so many occasions, and where as I will openly admit there has been some problems with fans, I beleive it has improved greatly over the last few tournaments. Turkey just seem to be getting worse and worse and something needs to be done.

I'm not sure how true this is, but I heard that as the Swiss players ran off the filed and into the tunnel that one of there players kicked an assistant coach of Turkey and than the bust-up was fully on....Don't know what to believe, and hopefully an investigation will sort things out and the guilty will be punished.

Fifa president Sepp Blatter says it will hold an investigation into the violence at the end of the World Cup tie between Turkey and Switzerland.
The Swiss qualified on the away goals rule but the end of the game was marred as players clashed in the tunnel.

Blatter says the inquiry will be finished by 9 December, when the draw for the finals takes place in Leipzig.

He warned: "I can tell you this, not as a Swiss but as president of Fifa, that we will act and we will act tough."


Yep looks like its all on, i wonder what the punishment will be if Turkey is found to be at fault.

He has too take serious action, because if it had been Scotland, England, Ireland or Wales there would be serious repercussions. Blatter has too make an example out of Turkey.

Turkey were definately knotheads, but the report is a Swiss player kicked an assistant coach for Turkey in the tunnel which ignited the hand bags.....I think that why he's making it crystal clear that something will be done, because he is from Switzerland himself, thus indicating favorites will not be played.

I expect to see both nations get 'called on the carpet', with Turkey getting the bigger punishement...

But I still think we need to see what and who caused yesterdays trouble before deciding it was all Turkey's fault (which in fact, it still could turn out to be).....
