Arsenal are playing a major role in trying to ensure Euro 2012 passes off peacefully by providing stewarding expertise to the Polish football authorities.

After an outbreak of trouble in the country, the Polish government has passed a succession of new laws aimed at trying to restore order in stadia.

However, they admit to worries about the potential for violence during next summer's European Championships, when the eyes of the world will be on the former communist state, who are co-hosting the competition with Ukraine.

Parliamentary under-secretary for state Tomasz Polgrabski is not convinced the problem will ever completely be combated, if only because he feels pan-European action is required for an issue that affects the entire continent.

Improvements can be made though, one of which has involved Arsenal providing stewarding expertise.

"Our FA has signed a contract with Arsenal," confirmed Polgrabski.

"Our staff went to Arsenal to learn how to teach the stewards. Now we have a programme to implement and are producing better stewards who are well qualified and are capable of dealing with matters as they arise."

Our stewards are pretty good tbh. I have come across some vile ones at certain away grounds in comparison.

He wouldn't have put up with a dodgy defence and impotent strikeforce either.

Adolf = Wenger's replacement? :unsure:

Don't be silly. Everyone knows Hitler was a Spud. He was conflicted about it.
