I really hate it when commentators claim to know what a player says on the pitch. Pretty fucking sure Williams did not say "come on son we'll need ya" to Danny Ward you insufferable oik.

Does it help though, to jump straight to the "It's just a minority!" argument? What good does that do? It's a terrible problem that is always there with English fans. Our government has actually confiscated passports to stop people getting to France for this tournament because they know this is going to happen and they have to try and do something about it.

Like I said, they are not the only ones, but the English are trouble, constantly. I get fed up listening to people blaming everyone else, "The other lot started it", "The police made it worse", it's the same shit over and over again.

It is a minority though. Like it is a monority of all "fans" that go looking for trouble. If anything the UK/French police needed to do better to weed out the thugs. It says something when a notorious English thug went to France, despite the fact he was banned from going. He was trying to get gangs together saying he wanted war on the streets. He ended up getting arrested in France the other day.

Go to the fanzone, go to a bar outside the city center, don't mix with big groups of identifiable fans, etc? Especially if you know fights are a big change to happen that day.

Innocent people still get caught up no matter how cautious they are. It happens and will always happen.

Shit will get nasty after that England-Russia match.

French Police better be ready to control shit outside the stadium.

Yeah, you're right, that does say something.

And obviously it's a minority. Nobody is saying that every English man, woman and child is a thug. That shouldn't even need to be pointed out. We're obviously talking about the hooligans, and England still to this day has more than it's fair share.

England fans are the Pastor Maldonado of football hooliganism.

Sure, they're not always to blame as much as everyone is quick to point the finger at them. But they haven't half earned their fucking awful reputation.
