England fans extend Poland stay

Perryman also insists fans will not be overly hit in the pocket by the 20-hour delay in the fixture because of the cheap nature of the Polish economy.

The game was postponed on Wednesday because of a waterlogged pitch and Poland was keen for the game to be rescheduled in November but England wanted to play the match as quickly as possible.

Perryman, from the London England Fans' group, said: "I expect there will be between half and two thirds of the England fans who travelled out for the game to be there this afternoon.

"A lot of fans I've spoken to have booked to come out on Monday and go back on Thursday anyway while a lot have Polish relatives over here.

"But in any case it will not cost the fans a lot of money for the extra day because Poland is a cheap place to get to, to stay at and to eat in - maybe an extra £150."

The game was eventually called off an hour after the scheduled 8pm kick-off time with sections of the pitch flooded.
