Did anyone find it interesting how the big group of hoolies left at half time without much effort being put in by the authorities ?
I think they attended as an FU to UEFA and their protocol rather than anything, so I think that they were only ever intending to push the first two steps of that protocol thing before leaving. Their agenda seemed more anti-uefa than anything, with all the no respect banners and things.
Yes because being racist and not wanting endless immigration is exactly the same thing
There were a few on here who didn't seem so fussed with Paolo Di Canio doing the salute.
As much as I condone the Bulgarians, our holier than thou attitude is also quite annoying in all of this. Think the indignant way the players and manager spoke before the game was rather disrespectful, our fans were acting like idiots the whole night as well in the stadium, obviously there was lots of fighting in Sofia and I don’t believe we are really on top of our own racism problem in this country - it was only 2 weeks ago that a major incident occurred at Hartlepool that had racism at its centre.
This whole wanting to remove the two chances thing is a joke as well - I remember a mag making a monkey gesture when they conceded before - should that game have been abandoned instantly like some are suggesting? Sure someone in our fans did something similar before as well. There are idiots up and down the country, so we need to get off our pedestal, as I think the condemning attitude of our media in particular is a disgrace.
