I thought that was about Platini this is about an actual act of violence. But let the Mods decide if it should be merged.
This is totally different to Wazzas thread. Simms, it's the Daily Mail, so highly likely to be a load of old carp.
It's the daily mail of course you should take it with a pinch of salt, but the BBC confirms some elements of it http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18363736
There will be racism, there will be scrapping...the only thing more certain than that is that whatever does happen will be exaggerated and twisted to sound far more dramatized than what actually occurs.
Apparently the word is that a group of Stoke fans were targeted by some Polish hooligans. How true this is I dont know.
Rubbish, it was awful, you could hear the neanderthals elevate their monkey chants as Vorm stepped forward to practice. ****ing third world *****.
I heard it and I agree...what I am saying is that all through the tournament there will be incidents that will be blown out of proportion as well as the ones that we see.
That sort just wouldn't happen at an England game anymore. Can you imagine the outrage if it did and the footage found it's way to the mainstream media?
