England fans attacked

[Grosso]

Ok, either way. The English are just defending themselves and in some cases their families.

maybe, and perhaps all sides of the media have gotten it wrong deliberately or otherwise

Some are coming round but like with all things in the media. England fans defending themselves, doesn't sell newspapers. Especially not the ones who are trying to talk up how wonderful the EU is.

Russian thugs sells newspapers

France does have a problem with Racism at the moment.

I think having the tournament there probably hasn't been a great idea.

Where would you suggest?

That was embarrassing GIAE, best to do a bit more research before posting any more drivel

What part are you disagreeing with? I am getting first hand information, are you?

Maybe you can re post your statement regarding the French police and the video link again

Clearly the English causing all the trouble with 6 jailed, no Russian arrests at this time, oh hang on forgot, the French hate the English

What's with the UK press now labeling the English hooligans as fans and the Russians as thugs, that's a quick turn around from what they were labeling them last week in the press

[Bomber]

I think Boris the Bullet dodger has something to do with all this....

What video of the French police?

6 jailed just means they caught them and actually make my point. We've all seen the videos of the Russians involved in the trouble but not one arrested. Already been caught and tried and found guilty. It's very fair this French judicial system.

Yes, the media have now seen the videos as well and seen that the English are not the aggressors. Probably helped when Jamie Vardy's missus comes out and tells her story.

how do you know they were Russians?

The Russian sports minister has said they were Russian,

Russia handed a suspended disqualification from the tournament for the actions of their fans.

No you're right. uefa has given them not even a slap on the wrist, I should be happy.

Quite right England have got nothing, you should be able to defend yourself.

[Pie and Bovril]

So UEFA have admitted it was the Russians. Honestly, GIAE needs a medal for his patience dealing with the 10 year olds on this forum.

Only relates to trouble inside the stadium, you will still get your arses kicked outside of it

Maybe you could link us to some of this defending, I'm only seeing vision of England running away, leaving their so called mates lieing in pools of blood on the deck

If what I am hearing is true, next few days could be interesting. Certain groups feel the Russians are taking the piss by picking on scarfers and have headed over.

England and Wales are apparently looking after each other.

All this Russian and English behavior is pretty much passion according to most on here.

Do you not think that some of these problems have occurred due to cultural sensitivities?

ie the French probably didn't like the idea of hordes of Englishmen coming into their city and claiming that they were taking over. The Russians also were very angry at the booing of their national anthem by the English supporters.

This was pre meditated, it was too organised to not have been. The firing of the flare as the signal to attack. No way was that down to the boo'ing of the anthem.

I know the french police are bad, that's been proved this week but surely they don't attack people or stand by and watch them getting attacked because they don't like people drinking and having a good time.

[Kosta Utd]

As usual a large number of brave French attack a small number of peaceful Englishmen, then run away at the first sign of fighting back. Then the Old Bill arrive and teargas the rest. I'll lay a bet the cheese eaters don't turn up when there's 50,000+ there for the Russia match.

u dont eat cheese?

[Kosta Utd]

Seems like as always, the rest of the Europe wants to have a pop at England and we don't back down. Following England is like following Millwall.

true, neither win anything

There was talk on social media of some England fans seeking revenge on their Russian counterparts.
One Twitter user boasted today the 'English cavalry is comi'
and we're looking for a "tear up" in Lens on Wednesday.

Another tweeter said: "You don't press on the English without expecting some fight back.
"We can take the fight to their level after boasting of a fight with four Russians while travelling through France following Saturday's game

Don't think he will make it by Wednesday

[God is an Englishman]

he looks greek to me the way he's attached to that donkey

You'd complain as well if you're lot were being targeted and then blamed for defending themselves. Oh wait, you're lot aren't there.

[Kosta Utd]

the russians wouldnt be fighting their orthodox brothers in the first place, just as much as the Greeks wouldnt be taunting them to begin with

plenty of evidence to suggest the poms are provoking the russians, who dont seem to like eating cabernet

By reports from UK this morning, the English supporters started the trouble overnight. Sadly a minority ruin again for the majority.
