WAGs' wings ... private jet
ENGLAND WAGs plan to hire a private jet to whisk them to and from Euro 2012 amid fears for their safety.
The players’ wives and girlfriends are spooked by the threat of violence and racism from thuggish fans in Ukraine and Poland.
It comes after families of black England stars Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain said they would not go to the championship finals in case they are targeted.
A group of WAGs decided the safest way to see the team in action is to fly in for the games and then jet home again without staying overnight.
The plane will cost the girls tens of thousands of pounds. A source close to the women said: “The idea is that they’ll club together and pool the cost.
“There have been a lot of scare stories and the players don’t want their WAGs to be put in any jeopardy.”
