Poland and Ukraine wait on Uefa report 9:27pm on 25 Sep 2008 Poland can and will deliver a tournament that will make them and football proud. It is exactly the kind of event that they deserve and need after 50 years of forced repression to lift the profile of the country on an international stage, beyond what we already know about them being hard workers. They are a feircely proud nation and I am proud to count a number of them as my close friends.

Look at the reports that come out daily about our own Olympics and the potential shambles that it could turn into with world events, money running short, big companies folding or pulling out etc, but do we ever actually think that we will fail to deliver a great games, of course not, we, being equally proud Brits that waited over 50 years for the games, believe that we'll deliver a brilliant games that the world will all remember. Let's give the Poles the benefit of the doubt, they have 4 years and the planning is there, even if there is some concern at FIFA.

Chris, London

p.s. host some games in Krakow, they are mad for footy there!
