England fans attacked in Marseille

As per usual the press including Sky news got it wrong this morning. I woke to find Sky Sports News ticka tape "2 england fans arrested as trouble flares .............". Then the reporter going on about how England fans were in the thick of it again.

 

The actual truth is , , England fans were been stoned and bottled and attacked all night by locals. Some England fans were jumped going back to hotels while the french Police stood back and actually laughed when England fans questioned why they were doing nothing.

Eventually when more and more locals appeared and it got worse did the Police intervened and tear gas was used to disperse the "FRENCH" youths who were growing in numbers not England fans.At one point there must have been around 200-300 of them not the 50 as reported. There was the usual scum press mixing in with England fans and actually starting up chants.

 

Then ,10 minutes later Sky Sports changed it to 1 England fan 1 local arrested. So when they were unsure why didn't they originally put "2 people were arrested after clashes ...." ?. Because they assumed straight away he's be a shithouse English fan.

 

And how do I know ?, 2 of my m8's were caught up in it and their far from hooligans. They said the french were there all night goading trying to kick off while the Police let it happen

Reminds me of an old joke that still makes me laugh.

Bloke walks through a park in Manchester and see's an American pit bull attacking a young child as he was strolling through the park. Quick as a flash with total disregard for his own safety he pounced into action dragging the angry dog off the child killing it with his bare hands in the process. A local newspaper reporter happened to be walking by and approached asking if he could use this as a story to show his heroics. The reporter starts with the headline Local Hero saves young child from devil dog.....Reporter then ask's the hero what area he is from to which he answers Liverpool mate. Reporter says that's fine and jots down a few bits and trots off. Paper comes out the next day and emblazoned across the front page Scouse Bstard savages family pet !!

To be fair there is a good point in there somewhere and being even fairer I have witnessed an incident where the media totally misreported it and went as far as tell actual full on lies....so it does happen lol.....England fans are a victim of their own "success" as a hard core firm who are ALL looking for a row...I know that is simply not true but as with even ordinary football clubs the world over it is the few who create the "name" and the mud then sticks.....The press expect the fans to kick off.

I see those fans are having more bother from the local police tonight.  They were just having a drink and singing about the IRA and downing German bombers and a wee bit of the old national anthem (To be honest I see no issue with the latter). Anyway the lads are enjoying some more tear gas today by the sounds of things. Source

Then while ITN are doing a live news feed a Russian nobhead starts singing "wushain hoowigans" waving a can. I've been aboard with England , in my yoof and later on in life. There's always one fookin dixk who decides to throw a bottle then all hell breaks loose.

Bulgaria was the worst place I went, walking to CSKA's ground at night through what they nicknamed "The killing fields" big bushes with Bulgarians hidden in them tooled up. 

 

 

Try running full pelt in the dark through woods pissed , it's a whole new way of moving

It's all their fault gvnor onest.

 

 

 

and your point been ?

It's bullshit.

 

Time to admit Theres a decent sized hooligan element in the angerland support who cause it wherever they go and the "those other bad boys started it" and "we where provoked" just doesn't wash in the real world.

Thought best to keep to the same thread don't want to clutter up the boards. Seems they have been at it again. A fan is in hospital in a critical condition after being involved in the violence....who knows if he was just a bystander caught up in it..it is them I really feel sorry for. Quite a lot on the events of the day here as it is Russia they are playing - https://www.rt.com/sport/346225-england-fan-violence-marseille/

There is a hooligan element in angerland (ffs) but if you think that their to blame for everything you wan't your head and eyes tested. The trouble in the ground was a planned attack by russian hooligans and the running street battles were mainly lead by russians.

 

Have you ever been to a football match say and England abroad or you basing your facts on the on mancmans rag read ?

I'm not blaming everything on anyone mate, I'm simply saying the victim card doesn't wash when you've got a large element of fans who cause ruckus wherever they go.

Yes I have been to football matches and I've had the pleasure of meeting your England fans causing havoc, but that was probably my fault lol.

Well if you told them they were from angerland I'm pretty sure you would have got a slapping :). and mik ?, my m8 who's over there said there is a large contingency of Leeds fans there and if those steg yed Russians turn up again they might be in a bit er trouble.

 

I was wondering why Scottish fans are never involved in these outbreaks of hooliganism at these tournaments , , , , then it clicked . . . . . . . :)

Thats just like the english nowadays. Its only pissed up and singing with the tops off. I'll admit it cant be nice for the locals, but its mostly harmless. If it wasnt then do you think people would be out there with the wives, girlfriends and kids, would they bollox. A decent write up from a paddy

id agree the majority of england fans are just out to get pished and have a laugh and wouldnt even think of causing any bother with the locals but then its the minority that drag them all into it, which is a real shame for normal fans.

eveything in the town could be going great with loads of drunk fans then all you need to one bottle to be launched at rival fans and it all kicks off.

 

which leads to the question, why is it just english fans? scots welsh irish fans all seem to be able to go anywhere and be greeted like friends....maybe it is just your old reputation that leads to animosity from the local but more likely fans playing up to ancient brovado , like said leeds fans.

Because England have this reputation, it proceeds them were ever they go. I was there in Italy in the 82 Spain and for me everything stems from there onwards. Considering that the powers be cannot do anything about the trouble outside the stadium three not doing much about the Russians in the ground. All on video and pictures for those people to see and as far as I'm aware not 1 Russian arrested for what went on in the ground.

 

Now imagine, England fans charge Russians , ? how many fookin banning orders and kangaroo courts would appear ?. Let's face it, when it comes down to it Russians are about 30 lightyears years behind stuck watching 80's -90's youtube vid's. They don't drink (lol), gym every day steggin up, meeting in fields to fight ,,,ffs give me strength we would have pished are sides at that.
