Really, not what I've heard/seen, that was the English hooligans excuses when they got done.

Long time lurker, first post now.
I've followed England abroad for 20 years and in that time our support has changed beyond recognition.
When I started going, England's away support was made up of 90% lads.
We already had the reputation from the 80s and there was always trouble. More often than not, it was the English fans that were targeted (Italy 97, Marseille 98 where two English fans were stabbed by local Arabs and nearly lost their lives) but we had people only too happy to get involved. Of course, if English fans hadn't caused chaos across Europe in the 80s then I'm sure we wouldn't be so much of a target now, but let's at least acknowledge that other countries had their hooligans then too - it's just that we were the best at it, and now we are not!
Our support has been watered down by banning orders and we now have people carrying Shrek dolls or dressing up as Knights in their place. Real football violence ended in this country a long time ago. People don't want to risk losing their job having a punch up at football- what's the point? We have too much to lose. All that happens now is that people dress up and get wrapped up in escorts. Even our banned lads would be no match for those Russians. Or the Hungarians, Croats, Serbs, etc.
I was in Marseille in the summer and the English weren't angels - but it felt like we were up against the Russian army.
Trained MMA fighters against a load of pissheads. I really expected people to die after what I saw (and rumours were rife at the time that this had happened). After seeing all that, my attitude to the Wales game changed and I had some good chats and drinks with lads from North Wales and Cardiff. I was glad you lot didn't get the same treatment at your game with Russia.
This is bigger than inter-UK rivalry. I'm still undecided about going next year (assuming we qualify) but it won't be an enjoyable time and it won't be just the English who are targeted. May need to upgrade my plastic chair to an iron one.

It`s up to the World`s special forces to not make it into a blood bath for the paparazzi to film, beware of disinformation some is badly video shopped. Putin is inviting the World to visit, I think he`s got plans in set, as have all the other Nations, This will be a test no doubt. PS Iron Chairs sound about right.

was indiscriminate mate. and they were really not up againt what id consider an English mob.
hatred of England doesnt turn truth into excuses.it remains the truth.
they went there for publicity and didnt care much how they got it.
