sigh... every hooliganism thread


Quote:
That's the wonder of American sports. There are fistfights, showers of beer (and faeces, canned dog food and coins), portable toilets kicked over with opposition fans inside them, knifings, deafening verbal abuse, full-scale riots, cars set alight, disabled fans stripped and their clothing destroyed, players puking because they've breathed in the pepper spray used by police to dissuade two sets of fans from kicking the sweet bejesus out of each other - and not a single hooligan in sight. Amazing when you think about it.

Anyway, cheers... for these funny threads.... Gopher, why are you so anti-British? I mean it is too much, you British hater!

No one seems to say much about Irish violence? It doesn't hit the headlines....


Thank you for noticing, Adventurer.

By the way, look again: I gave the Irish what they deserve, the whole car-bombing, terrorist-culture lot of them...



That part is true that is more in Northern Ireland between the IRA of the North and the Protestants there. I don't hear of any major strife inside the Republic itself in recent times at major football/soccer matches.
But point well taken about the sectarian violence.

Again...I agree. We're bloody animals when it comes to football. "Emotions run high cause we're so passionate" is a typical barbarians response. I'm ashamed of that aspect of our culture.


Agreed. English heads belong on the end of a baton.

What it is, is sheer boredom in the society. I mean what do people live for in Pomland? work, watch big brother, go to the pub. Work, watch big brother, go to the pub. they have no life. I you want to get passionate, let it be about something real! Not a stupid little game.

My advice to English folks: try to find a purpose for your existence.

Viva la carabinieri!


What a stupid cvnt you are.
