    Belize football team bus held up by armed gang in Haiti

    FIFA should be putting a statement out.

    Ban games there if they are not going to be protected

    I have heard of making a home game a fortress...but this seems to be a bit extreme....

    A lot of countries in that region are very unstable and have serious social problems.
    I'm not talking about people letting their dogs run around off lead in a park or too many security lights causing light pollution either

    Should have been played at a neutral venue perhaps in Mexico or Texas
    Belize is one of the few generally law abiding nations in the region and still has strong links with the UK after it became independent from the UK in the early 1980's. Our military still trains there to get ready for jungle warfare so none of the neighbouring countries try it on
