So if this idiotic behaviour continues and Russia get expelled and sent home in disgrace, where would this leave the 2018 world cup?

(apologies if already discussed but I didn't want to trawl through 25 pages)

They just see it as some sort of bravado. The world cup could be a bundle of laughs. Put in probably loving it as it suits his macho image

The security will be a different kettle of fish out there. They might not give a shit having someone else's tournament messed up, but they'll want theirs to be a shining beacon of their state achievements, and they'll protect that reputation with everything they've got.

Alexander Shprygin, a leader of the Russian Fans' Union, has been active on Twitter throughout the confrontation. “Not one of us were arrested in Marseille, but three days later they want to deport the official Russian Supporters group,” he wrote Tuesday. “This is a circus. The police are getting out their tasers. They want to storm the bus.”

The Fare network, which is employed by UEFA to monitor racism within stadiums, has identified Shprygin as a far-right activist responsible for introducing neo-Nazi practices to the Russian supporters' scene, the Guardian reported Monday.

I believe H is the 8th letter in the alphabet.. HH being Heil Hitler..

Maybe they should learn a bit of history. Apparently Adolph didn't hold Russians in the same high esteem as these individuals appear to regard him. Hitler regarded Russians or Slavics in general as "sub human" (untermensch) and their annihilation or enslavement was another objective of Nazi ethnic cleansing. So their 88 / HH stance is a bit like Afro-Americans getting dreamy eyed and nostalgic about the Ku Klux Klan.

Is there no end to these Russian animals' lust for violence? Let's hope the German authorities bang these thugs up. I see France have handed out jail terms to 3 Russians.

Reuters: Seven Russian football fans beat up three Spanish tourists outside Cologne's landmark cathedral on Thursday, a police spokesman said, adding that six of the Russians were detained.

German media said the Russians were returning to Moscow from the European Championship in France and that two of the Spaniards were seriously injured.

I fear for any fans who want to go to Russia for the world cup
