these are isolated incidents which were cracked down on almost instantly and all over the press as a disgrace

meanwhile in italian and spanish leagues racism occurs in every game and goes unpunished

a pretty accurate description of the average football fan... from any country really.

and not all brits are deluded and haters but unfortunately many of them still come up with this wwII shit when push comes to shove.
this forum is just another example - as soon as things get too complicated they try to play their war card, thinking that has any relevance whatsoever. i wonder what their media has to do with it because they play a big part in keeping the hate alive imo...


The funniest part is that they think that they are the biggest rivals of the Germans, this is completely false, the biggest rivalry in Europe at least will for ever be when Germany and Oranje face each other.

I do agree on the stereotype. It's just all the supporters everywhere :P

I, like most other Englishmen, have nothing to apologise for.

I can't remember a single incident in the Premier League involving banana throwing in the last few years, but it has happened to many players in Russia, and even bigger leagues like La Liga.

Does that mean I would label Russians or Spanish football fans racist? Of course not.

Most football fans going to a World Cup are taking time off from their job, having a good time supporting their country. Others take their kids along. Very few of these people are racist.


Pretty much this. There are incidents though where stuff has happened as there are racist people in EVERY country. This doesn't mean we are about to start an apartheid and wipe out all black people or middle easterns, or even just put them all in a ghetto. If people here live in a 'predominantly black area' or something of the sort, then they have chosen to do so.

I can't recall anybody in this forum referring to the war, but yes, the media does play a large role in keeping the post war hatred about. It doesn't mean that all Englishmen follow it. A lot of the rivalry that we claim is generally to do with having pretty much evenly matched teams across the years, and being matched up in major tournaments in crucial games.

All in all, I think that most of the people that are spouting this shit are just discriminating based on a stereotype that they themselves have been brought up around. Not all people do all these things you say, and to be honest, it is the silent majority that don't, we just have the spoken minority that ruin it for the rest of us. Then we get to speak to biased arseholes who think we are all one set of peas in a pod!

Will be checking this place after watching games at bars to see the streams of rage from these two-digit iq, mouth-breathing, drooling, perpetual virgins that make up that strikeforce :rofl:  :rofl:  :rofl:

there's banter and then there is constant butthurt... obviously YOU don't quite understand it. maybe a little too subtle for a simple mind...
