The Football.....

[Accy cyclist]

They've just said that Holland have played sublime football. This from a nation that didn't qualify for the last 2 major tournaments. They have a crap national side for 4 years then rebuild into a 'very good team'. England don't have good or bad periods. They're consistently average.

WTF England "fans" rioting in Portugal, total embrassment for the whole country.

Wonder if the English FA will be as vocal about sanctions as they were a few weeks back....not!!

The Russians appear to be quite good at dissuading this type of behaviour.

Why don't the FA just spend a few hundred quid sponsoring 5 or 6 top Russian hoolies to "police" these 1000's of Brit fakers?

 

[MarkF]

Well we won't have anymore embarrassing stuff,unless it kicks off tonight,as England are out. Apparently John Stones played like a fecking donkey!

English fans cannot wait to hound a "non hoofer" after a bad game, nothing changes there. If Maguire had made those mistakes he'd have "learnt from it". Stones being a total oddball, being English and a footballing defender, will cop it

That should read English fakers surely, I feel sure that when the Celtic contingent of the UK play this weekend there will not be scenes like this.

England now play Switzerland in a third place play off on Sunday afternoon. Who will be 'up for it' I ask? Ah well,i suppose third place in the Nations League is better than nowt. Just slightly better though.

You are right, l am Irish and get muddled up sometimes, useless English hoolies it is

Identify them and take their passports away. Or risk them doing it again. Its not rocket science.

Continuous booing of the finest defender who's ever played in this country showed the mentality of the dregs who go abroad to watch England. They deserve what they got.

Talking of defending...

Life is very tough for clubs outside the Premiership. Coventry City will have to play all their 'home' games next season outside Coventry -https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footbal...a69Jh6POrjGUWjP62_JnKH1W_n5QZY15az1sRkR5W_M7g

We've got clubs like Bury and Bolton who are limping on with players and staff going unpaid, clubs playing to 2/3rd 1/2 empty stadiums (no, I refuse) while fans are sitting at home watching Premier and Champions league games in the comfort of their own homes. Some clubs will not survive until 2020.

Meanwhile in Scotland, where apparently football is $hite , Celtic have sold out their season tickets for next season already.

Yes and I am on a waiting list to see if I can get squeezed in at Cliftonhill.

It's a different league but the same principle applies up here.
