FA consider Turkey boycott
Turkey defender Alpay was involved in a fracas with one England fan and Uefa is to make a full investigation of the disturbances.
"Safety has to be paramount and we have to take the right decision," FA spokesman Paul Barber told BBC Radio Five Live.
"If we consider that the best option is not to take tickets then that is something we will look at very seriously.
"Clearly taking tickets in the current circumstances is a potential risk in terms of potential violence both inside and outside the stadium."
But the FA is aware that if it decides not to take up its allocation of tickets, then other problems could arise.
"Not taking tickets runs the risk of fans travelling of their own with us not knowing where they are, how they are travelling or even where they are in the ground if they buy off the black market.
"Over the next couple of weeks we will be talking to all the agencies, the police, the Turkish FA, our own security people and working out what is the best possible decision."
Saunder’s warns England fans
The Turkish FA does not have to inform Uefa of the venue for the return match until 60 days before the fixture is due to take place.
But reports in the Istanbul media said the 50,000 capacity Sukru Saracoglu had been earmarked for the game.
"My information is that the game will not be played at Galatasaray’s stadium," said Turkey’s Fifa executive committee member Senes Erzik.
"It needs to have a total renovation and may even be under construction in October."
