Would you like to be in their position? They are obviously focused on the terrorism threat and now they also have to deal with this kind of ****. Grown men with no brains.

But why does this always happen in France? There were no problems in Germany when the World Cup was there.

Even 4 years ago in POLAND AND UKRAINE it was quite peaceful.

Maybe France shouldn't be holding such large scale events if it can't keep things under control.

Is there any country who can?

If France can't - I promise you no-one can.

Still the awarding of a world Cup to Russia seems even more extraordinary now. :crazy:

Probably does even if we do make it.


He won't be sacked. It's hard to find another experienced manager for the job considering the way they are playing. It's always been impossible managing England. They have star individual club players with loads of ego who cannot play together as a country.

They can probably reach out to Kenny Dalglish or David Moyes to replace him.

Russian police are the russian criminals

It is actually easier to control the crowds when you dont have to follow any kind of human rights regulations. It will back of hooligans mind that russian jails are quite different than french ones.

Dont remember ruckus this magnitude in ukraine-poland, two countries that have much less resources at least on paper.

Putting crowd trouble aside, number of contraband and incendiary devices that got into the stadiums show the incompetency of french. Things could get much much worse.

One word WOY.

Russia were terrible against us but we didn't have a striker who could score and the best striker on the pitch was taking the corners and free kicks - no shots in side the box!!

England Must beat Wales now otherwise they could be eliminated.
