Hooliganism in Russia

[drillerpie]

Quite an interesting piece of blatant Russophobia from the Guardian. Luckily we know it's all made up because Russia recently saved the world from Ukrainian fascism and Putin is nice to animals.

Read the full article earlier this morning.....it looks like Putin has arranged to crack down on all the known Russian gang leaders, in readiness for foreign fans....will it work?....difficult to say until the Brits, Germans and Poles turn up

In reality, this activity has a very loose association with football, by their own admission, many do not even go inside stadia let alone watch football.

Given that the article shows the thugs are attached to far-right opposition politicians, who in the even that "something like the Ukrainian revolution might happen here, and that, if it does, the rightwing hooligans will take to the streets against the authorities," your sarcastic attempt to implicate Putin is rather juvenile. By lumping him and the Russian state together with the far-right opposition and their thugs (which the article clearly shows the government is attempting to crack down on), it betrays that you really can't tell one Russian from another. I.e. you are the one suffering from Russo-phobia! But that's not really news to anybody.

Next!

Putin will do nothing. Go there at your own risk.

I'd put ANTIFA in England shirts. Then they might get a better understanding of what they preach lol

Italian thugs left somebody in a critical condition last night. Last week, South African hooligans made a sickening attack on a steward (Kaiser Chiefs). Imagine the headlines if it had been Russians!
They're clearly not to be messed with though, anybody going out there to get p!SSed up and provoke them with daft chants is asking for it. It will be a relief if England and Poland get knocked out and sent home as soon as possible.
