maybe its just me but i hate it when flags are pictured upside down or the wrong way round, if you're gonna take a picture get the ****a in the right orientation.
I wouldn't have thought they'd be military mate, maybe I'm wrong but there's a huge fighting culture in Russia. Just in the past year, I've watched several documentaries on Youtube and one on tv, about the way they train, they train with knives, bats, knuckle dusters... the show I watched on tv was about the Neo Nazi fanatics, there's huge amounts of them in Russia. I'd say it's more to do with their culture, they think it makes them proud to be able to get into situations where they outnumber a defenseless middle-aged man 5 to 1 and proceed to kick him in the face until he's in a coma.
It was the organisation involved in the attack, even down to escaping the police afterwards, which made me think that some kind of military might be involved, even if it was perhaps ex military involved in organising this rabble...I think Comm may have thought I was criticising the armed forces, which was not my intention at all.
Ignore him, he's probably got cold-turkey rage, from his smoking-quitting. How's that going by the way @commachio1
How many you had, tell the truth, have you been in a state where you might have had one and not remembered?
A half a one. Some bloke bought some tabs in Macau. I tried one. Few drags and put it out. That is it.
UEFA have fined Russia £120,000 and given them a "suspended ban" - i.e. kicked out if there is any more violence.
Well that's a load of bollocks 'cos there will be loads more violence, which will be instigated by their idiots, and now't will be done about it p.s. if this sounds like I'm 'shooting the messenger' Having just read the post below (about it only 'counting' for incidents inside grounds) they might be alright
Russia given suspended disqualification (bbc); Russia have been given a suspended disqualification from Euro 2016 over the crowd trouble at Saturday's game against England in Marseille. Uefa, European football's governing body, has also issued Russia a 150,000 euro (£119,000) fine. Uefa said the punishment will be imposed if similar incidents happen at any of Russia's remaining matches. Groups of Russia fans are being deported from France after repeated scenes of violence at Euro 2016. The suspended disqualification and fine only relates to incidents that occurred inside the stadium and are therefore under the jurisdiction of Uefa disciplinary bodies. The decision is open to appeal. Russia were also charged over fan racism and fireworks being set off during the game. More to follow. Notice it only relates to incidents inside the stadium (probably no juristiction outside)
No apology to the English for their initial taring of innocent England fans who were attacked in the stadium I take it?
Well as soon as Russia look like going out anyway, whether it be in the third group game or last 16 onwards, their 'fans' will kick off, when they have nisht to lose. Try kicking them out of the World Cup when they're bloody hosting it
Dozen lads from Peterlee went this morning to Lille. 7 red and white, 5 black and white, all good lads. Hope they're safe near the Russians.
That's not a fair indication of the 'red & whiteness' of Peterlee, like All good lads . . . . well 7 anyway Let's hope that they all come back safely (I bet that they're a bit worried about this trip, when they weren't a week ago)
