RANGERS star Vaclav Cerny has blasted his own FA for allowing the Czech Republic's home game to be completely taken over by visiting Ukrainian fans.
Cerny produced a fine performance in the 3-2 Nations League win over Ukraine with a couple of assists in Prague.
But the Czech supporters stayed away after their side were thrashed 4-1 in Georgia in their last match and the vast majority of the crowd was made up by Ukrainian fans.
And that infuriated the Ibrox winger.

He said: "How can we allow our ground to be like that?
"We can't allow tickets to be sold like this. I'd rather play in an empty stadium.
"I am a Czech patriot and the game was played in Prague. Everyone saw how bad it looked - it was terrible.
"I know the mood before the match was not ideal after what happened in Georgia, but we wanted to show our fans what we could do. It was a shame so little of them turned out to watch us.
"I am well aware it has been difficult for our fans, but we cannot allow this to happen again. It just looked wrong for our home game.
"I am just really angry about it.
"This wouldn't happen in any other country in the world. Czech football has got to be better than this."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
