Anyone watch panorama tonight? Absolutely shocking. How in the name of God did these two countries get the Euros? Police doing absolutely nothing & Ukranian government in denial about it. All of it just generally accepted by normal, everyday people. Sad, very sad.
Need Blatter to get a good kicking. That tw*t will be well protected tho. If these teams fans do cause bother wonder if they will ban them from the World Cup cos there would be no hesitating banning little England.
Violent hooligans gearing up for the Euros mate. Basically they hate blacks, asians & jews. Both in Poland & Ukraine. One group are even undertaking what I would describe as mild military training. That includes knife fighting & learning to shoot.
Great programme but... Why ****ing air it this close to the event? Everyone going have surely already bought and paid for their tickets. Should have been done months ago, none of it's new.
So true. I was speaking to a Polish lad at work about this & he gave me a list of places people should avoid at all costs. All it takes is to walk into the wrong bar.
My missus won't let me visit her in Moscow when she goes back for the summer as she says I'd be in a fight with a nazi within five minutes (regardless of the fact that I'm whiter than Dracula) and stabbed within six. Moscow, Krakow, Warsaw, Kiev... All places on the FIFA/UEFA calendar. Respect to Messrs Blatter and Platini.
Not sure if anyone who gets on here is going. If you are Petr's advice is stay in your hotel bar for drinks. All the East Europeans I work with are very decent people but you wouldn't want to get in the way of these nutters cos if owt happens the police wont ****ing help you.
I'll have to download this programme and have a look. I'm off to the Euros in a fortnight with my bairn!
Not a particularly good program, squeezed together into 30 mins, anyone who didnt know the problems with these twats, has had his head in the sand for 20 years. youd be better watching the Danny Dyer bull**** from years ago.
I knew these problems existed but wasn't aware of the scale/regularity. God knows how they got the Euros (and how Russia got the world cup). What a terrible state of affairs - if any trouble kicks off this summer, and somebody gets really badly hurt (or worse) I hope Blat and Plat walk immediately, because it will have been entirely their fault.
In the hopes of helping these countries to develop more interest in the FIFA/UEFA "fairplay" theory, the gruesome twosome awarded them and Russia two giant tournaments. Be assured that after the tournaments these naughty boys will become worthy churchgoing citizens and peace will reign throughout football. I read that somewhere by a couple of brothers called Grimm.
It's unbelievable that players such as Samba, Roberto Carlos, Samuel Eto'o etc are going over there to be abused like this (Russia is the same as Poland and Ukraine for racism.) They must be earning a ****in **** load of cash to put up with that... It's also amazing that 70 years after Hitler and the Nazi's, in a country that felt his hatred the most, that they continue to support fascism and promote the same ****e that Hitler forced down their throats in 1939. FIFA doesn't really give a **** about racism imo, they are in it for themselves, and to line their own pockets. The corruption and dirty money that comes out of these Eastern European countries is staggering. And to award Euro 2012, and Russia 2018, and 2022 to Qatar just goes to show how deep it runs. England and Australia had much better bids than either country, but own willingness to stick to the rules was our undoing. Sack Blatter and the rest of the ****heads at FIFA and get some people who will do good for the game in.
We were discussing the programme last night at work. A Russian lassie who has always seemed perfectly pleasant said "I don't know why such a fuss. That's why I moved from London to County Durham. Not many blacks". It's worse than it was here in the 70's/80's. At one Ukranian game shown, a group of thugs pelted down the terracing & rounded on an Indian student & started kicking the **** out of him while the police & stewards stood by & let them get on with it.
I've heard loads of this but unfortunately missed the programme (forgot about it as the wife had "other plans" To behonest, as Disco says - it's certainly not new - my best mate works all over the world - he says Warsaw is a great place to go drinking but there are a lot of places you really wouldn't want to stumble into by accident - OK so every country has places like this but there seem to be a lot more of them over there from what my mate tells me. Anyhow - if they're gearing up for hooliganism then what's the bet's we get banned from the World Cub because one of our fans was somewhere within a 5 mile radius?!
There is no chance that either of these buffoons would walk if something goes terribly wrong. I imagine that at the moment their standard response will be that it is the British journo's stirring up trouble again - the same journo's who pointed out the corruption at FIFA and they did sod all about that other than use it to dump Blatter's main rival from the election process. Money talks in football and as long as it is just the English fans that get a kicking then there is no chance of anything happening, because clearly we would have instigated it. Now if it happens to the French or the Germans they might do something about it.
You are right, it's not new but just separate hooliganism from racism for a moment. If two groups of thugs want to stand toe to toe & have a square go at one another on some waste ground then let them get on with it. However, they have said they will target jews, blacks & asians. They even kicked **** out of one of their own ffs. The Russian girl at work was of the "so what" opinion while a few of the Polish lads, while not condoning it were rather blase about it.
