Emmerde le front national! Point still stands! 😉 I'm getting a bit long in the tooth for the la jeunesse bit now mind! 😆
not quite like this but no far aff it! 😆
Few hundred nobheads making s lot of noise but too fat to back it up, whilst one Frenchie walks right up to the Russians and tells them to **** off.
Even our hooligans are shit, I hope we ate knocked out soon if only to avoid any more embarrassment.
Don't forget these are the reserves. All the proper hooligans are on banning orders.
Good to see the English mimicking ancient Celtic traditions by going into battle "moonclad" More woad for the skin and lime for the hair needed though.
A cursory scan of a few well known websites and Facebook pages this morning tells me a few things.
1. Unlike Marseille, there are a considerable number of genuine English and Welsh hooligans now present. They are not interested in fighting the police, or the French or anyone except the Russians. The trigger for their arrival was the attacks on families and shirters in Marseille.
2. The French police very successfully it would seem prevented a clash at the train station yesterday afternoon by kettling the English hooligans whilst moving on the Russian group. I imagine this was on the advice of their British counterparts who are extremely good at fan management these days.
3. The problems in Lille last night stemmed from how the English and Welsh fans have decided to work. Rather than spreading out across the bars they are all sticking together. large groups of young men get bouncier than little groups.
4. The Russian ultras were conspicuous by their abscence yesterday, I suspect they haven't gone home yet.
In that context I'd say that the French police did a pretty good job yesterday! With the potential for very serious disorder, 36 arrests is nothing and I reckon a number of those were preventative rather than responsive. If the English, Welsh and Russian hooligans do meet I think there could be fatalities as the talk is all of revenge. 🙁
Who are we going to blame today?
What is a "shirter" ? (not a soccer fan)

I did wonder if that would happen[url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/i-see-the-england-fans-are-doing-us-proud-again/page/8#post-7766514 ] a couple of days ago:[/url]
Anyway, one thing that concerns me with the 2 groups of fans set to be near each other again, well done UEFA btw, is that those English hooligans who are subject to banning orders etc, may make a concerted effort to get round these and get out to France. Probably under some misguided notion of 'defending their honour' or some such nonsense.
I was hoping with Russians being deported, and actively monitored by the French, such as their coach being stopped etc, they wouldn't bother. Looks like they've chanced it anyway.

A shirter is a football supporter who wears the team's replica shirt etc. people in team colours are not usually part of hooligan firms and are considered to be off limits to violence.
Ah thanks - more verbaging of nouns then !
Has anyone taken anyone else's end yet?

Bloody hell, it's the early 80's all over again . We were always warned about the 'casuals' if going into town on Saturdays.

Given the Russian's fashion sense, I'd put us in the mid-90s.
Casuals, casuals, get tae ****!

Someone who actually goes to watch the games, a genuine fan.
A "Commodore" on the other hand?
Bloody hell, I'd better stop wearing that Pringle sweater I got from Tkmaxx last year around town or on my holidays.

Bum bags are soo 2016, dahlings.

Nah, it was in Lille.
Not a football fan myself, but the Welsh press are having a field day selling the idea of Welsh Fans being a gang of well-meaning scamps happy to have a kick about with locals, people and fans of other nations (kicking footballs, not heads) etc whilst every other nation has it's own little brigade of holligans.
I can't help but think they're setting us up for a fall after the game today.

scenes like that make you want to vote for bremain...
The picking on kids should see them booted out the competition alone. Really pathetic.
Remember it's what they do in the stadium and not on the streets.
So let the street fighting begin...
Thing is anyone can buy a football top from abother country and then smash things up.
UEFA/FIFA need to get tougher.

What they need to be do is make Associations responsible for behavior outside of stadiums, currently that's not the case.

I guess it's money making machine and they don't want to spend £££££££'s on security.
"Thing is anyone can buy a football top from another country and then smash things up."
I might buy an Iceland top then run amok in the local high street.

Very good.
Three Russians jailed for 1-2 years for their role in the Marseille violence.

Blimey that was a bit quick! Don't you need a jury to send someone down for 2 years? Or at least some court time?
IIRC people were getting sent down for those sort of stretches within days of the London riots.
Flagrant délit - comparution immediate - prison ferme. 8) Keeping it simple if people want to Google the system.
Having seen Un Prophet I don't fancy French prisons down Marseille way!
Les Beaumettes probably. 8)

I am quietly confident they will be back on Russian soil within a few months.
