strong and stable with me, or...
I can't help but feel the Russians are being given far too much credit, whether for organisation, tactics, or whatever. It is like our fans take a good kicking and therefore the perpetrators MUST have been trained in Siberian hooligan camps, pouring over maps and studying past football violence. When you say exit routes well in advance, do you mean they bought the €1 city tourist map from the shop outside the station?
Russians were sober (which is unusual) and wanted to make a name for themselves. They also have the tacit support of the state.
It's a funny country, some beautiful architecture and women. Started teaching there during perestroika so saw a lot of change. I've been banned from visiting since 2009 though.

what for you naughty thing?
Someone bribed an official to mark me as an undesirable. Not sure if it was a rival employer or bunny boiler.

You clearly have no concept of basics of the law if you cannot understand that there is a difference between an act that is premeditated and organised and one which is spontaneous. The difference between MURDER and MANSLAUGHTER for instance.

Showed me his flick truncheon on the last train back to worthing
He showed his own 'truncheon' to an occasional female poster on NSC.
She said that if everything was in proportion he'd be a foot shorter than he actually is, which is saying something.

I wasn't "trying to be a smart arse" at all and I'm pretty sure it's only you who could have interpreted my post like that. My reference to Hoddle was simply that he is an unintelligent man who believes he's very clever. Perhaps a bit harsh, but that's exactly how you were coming across on this thread.
Flowery prose aside, you stated in two different posts that a "majority" of England fans were causing trouble (at least 51%) and that you didn't believe that completely innocent England fans were attacked while sitting in bars doing nothing wrong.
Both these statements were blatantly wrong and if (as you say) you were "merely expressing your perspective based on what you've seen and feel" then that makes no difference as you were still wrong and you have chosen to ignore the first hand reports of fans, reporters, journalists and both the French and English police. Many of which have been posted on this thread.
This either shows a lack of intelligence or a willful ignorance of the facts in order to push an agenda. Or both.
Which is all I was saying.

Yes you were being harsh, very harsh actually. Although I'm not sure Mr Hoddle would agree with your sweeping assumption and generalisation re his "intelligence." The generalisation being based on what you've seen and feel, something you castigate me for. Hoddle would doubtless surprise you with the facts re his relative intelligence I'm sure.
As for my majority comment, I apologised for it.
Re my nationality of course I'm English and have no links to the Solomon Isles. My study herein of the, sadly predictable, xenophobic reaction to my post(s) of a minority granted, acutely illustrates the problem we have as a nation. When faced with a contradictory slant from the accepted norm/flow of a debate/situation a proportion resort to name calling, dare I say violence?!? and in this case racist comments. Nasty pieces of work one or two in this thread, not to mention gullible reprobates.

It's amazing isn't it. Genuinely thought that UEFA would bottle it (no pun intended) and say they would review at the end of the tournament.
It will be interesting to see what happens if there is further violence and whether they genuinely do follow through - would there then be ramifications for the WC?!
Waiting to see the details, but I presume that this is for the trouble IN the stadium?

You presume correctly
I have been wondering whether they will do the same (as in the organised violence) for Wales as its another nation with a bit of a reputation

Really quite sickening. I couldn't watch the Go Pro footage but the GIF underneath was enough.
I'll never understand people's desire to fight for, as far as I can tell, something as stupid as bragging rights. I just don't get it.

Russia have been handed a suspended disqualification and a 150,000 euro fine. One more firework and they are out. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/jun/14/russia-handed-suspended-euro-2016-disqualification-fined-150000-uefa

If the Russians could control themselves for 90 minutes of the previous match. I would imagine they'll just wait until they're outside the stadium this time.
