Face bovered??? I deal with it by supporting everyone that plays against Englund! Its so good! I love it when you get a pasting. Now this could be solved if we were independent and had our own media but being marginalised and being subject to an alien culture has left us no alternative.

I don't want nuffin cause there aint nuffin 'ere wot I like. 😵

I didn't comment on the OP, I comment to your post. Why ask your questions when you know the answers.

So, the same old fallacy of "b-but everybody does it!" Some people around
here expect better of you, dive.

Will you keep dodging or will you offer your theory about the academically
defined "English disease"? Running away from the history of English
hooliganism, dating back almost 200 years, is only making you look silly,
and you are not a foolish, jingoistic fella --despite loving Farage and Boris.

P.S. I've heard a thread titled "Honest question re. Russians rioting in
France." is in process, just to make you happy.

It's a carry on of young men that used to fight in wars down the past .
It's better to have young bloods expelling their testosterone running up and down streets than Germans trying to wipe out the population of Europe .
That's a simple way to explain it and I know it's wrong but there is a slight bit of truth there .

It's actually plausible. A warrior element historically embedded into the culture.

Yeah, the president of the fans association said they were provoked. I
wonder if that provocation was one of them being knifed, or perhaps a
dozen Russians charged towards them with bats and chains. Or... was
it the way someone stared at them?

Mind you, everybody is provoked among football fans during competitions,
but this inclination to get slammed a ...[text shortened]... h will be
there to clash with the riot police.

I mean, seriously, it's... destined to occur.
Brexit anyone ?

Yeah, can't wait for them to leave. But only if it includes kicking their expats
from my favorite holiday destinations.

It doesn't work that way, dude. But an F for effort. Now go and cry some more about the English hooligans being provoked to demolish parts of a city.

I just came back from a cycle along the Forth and Clyde canal. As I cycled I exchanged smiles with dog walkers, salutations with families out for a Sunday walk. I tipped my hat to ladies and exchanged pleasantries with gentlemen. It was a festival of gentility in stark contrast to those ill bred ruffian churls from South of the border! 😵

Lol, football is sick! seriously, £40 million for a player, £200,000 a week to kick a ball, sickest thing I ever heard except for boxing. Dude its a Scottish tradition to support everyone that plays against Englund, come on, you know that. Its nothing personal just 700 years of history since Bannockburn 😀 The French cannot be trusted!
