Cheers mate. Bordeaux was brilliant about 30,0000 Welsh fans there and no trouble whatsoever The English have yet again shown they aren't capable of going anywhere without creating trouble.

Yeah, the Welsh fans singing was suberb, looked like as you said "brilliant", on your other point, the behaviour of the England fans has been overshadowed by the Russian preplanned attack in the stadium but both sets of fans involved in the trouble/fighting has been a disgrace to their national flags.
Let's hope peace and karma break out before during and after the Wales v England game.<ok>

Hearing the anthem for the first time ever in the Euros was really emotional and our fans conduct and the praise we have received makes me proud to be Welsh.

I think it will be even worse to be honest. Police told English and Wales fans to stay in Lille if they don't have tickets or if they are struggling to get hotels in Lens. Russia and Slovakia are playing there the day before...

Going to be chaos IMO and England/Russia will blame everybody else but themselves as usual.

Problem is Lens is tiny and there's hardly anywhere to stay there. Terrible planning by UEFA to have such a huge game in this stadium instead of using this one for smaller games like Romania Albania etc.
 
No mate, because their fans are basically a guerrilla unit

There's probably doping going on in their game anyway though

Can't recall his name but reportedly someone in the Russian FA has applauded the Russian fans for fighting for their country and encouraged them to continue the fight. It was reported in the Guardian I think.
 
World cup 2018 is just going to be Russian fans, between the oppressive police and roaming gangs of hooligans nobody should be travelling there.
And frankly nobody should, teach them and Fifa a lesson about giving tournaments to questionable hosts.

I was reading the one on the BBC and the Russian man they interviewed seemed almost proud that Russia and Ukraine had the worst Hooligans. He also blaming England fans of the 70s/80s for 'teaching' them hooliganism.

Nemeth playing for Hungary. Remember him, the next big thing before Pacheco
 
2-0 for hungary throw the cat amongst the pigeons... austria were expected to get out of this group so now... well... this one looks like we could see a thrid place team come out of it too.
 
Thought I read somewhere there will be more UK police at Wales/England game because obviously two sets of representatives can join together as both at same match.

So all those Russian police and paramilitaries...sorry...fans ...can kick the **** out of them too!
 
The English and Welsh fans sticking together.

Fact is these aren't really football fans, they don't care if Russia are kicked out or not, don't think they'd care if the WC18 was taken away from them. They are there to fight and attack fans from other countries, they've gone to France to fight and nothing more. The Euros are just an excuse to fight people from other countries instead of attacking each other.
French police need to be doing more, how hard is it to spot a gang of 100+ black clad Russians walking through the town. As soon as they are spotted in town they should be rounded up and kicked out of France.

You're spot on Roger, their entire lives evolve around violence and trying to prove they're the toughest, football is just a reason for them to travel, nothing more nothing less.
