The very end is interesting, but worth watching all the way through.
Shitty hooligan propaganda video. I was just scanning through but on 6:12 'Russian dropped by English fan' is clearly just an innocent bystander knocked out by a cheap shot. That was just one of several instances of the words not correlating with what's going on on screen. Doesn't paint anyone in a particularly good light mind.

Amazing how putting a few captions can completely change the perception of what's actually happening.

I saw this before in it's entirety with no captions and made a few judgements on what I was seeing. Then I watch this and ended up pissing myself laughing at the spin they were trying to put on it. I can't be arsed to go through it chapter & verse, but if you want a brief 30 second summary watch from 5'40" in where we are told "English fans protect injured local" to see a 20 plus stone fat bald bloke, no top on and Adidas shorts bent over. If he's a local, I'm Jean Claude van Damme.

We then see a blood soaked older fella sat on a stretcher being looked after by the pollis with the caption "Injured Civilian". I'll let this one pass as it's tricky to judge one way or the other with this bloke, but skip forward to the next scene and we see what to me is a completely innocent black lad holding up his phone taking pictures when out from a cloud of tear gas steps a biggish lad who knocks him out stone cold with a single punch. We are then told this is when a "Russian gets dropped". The lad was wearing an anorak, carrying a shopping bag and is just stood there. And he's black. Again if he's a Russian, stick a feather up my arse and call me Nancy.

I feel sorry for the lad, he's cops it square in the mush and hits the ground like a sack of taties.

Amazing how this is supposed to be some sort of victory video for the English as well. Captions of "Russian who was bottled by the English hiding behind the police". Not to mention all the hahahahas on it. And a load of inaccurate information, the worst being the "Russian gets dropped". A More accurate one would have been "French local not looking for trouble is flattened by a cowardly shithouse from England."

Doesn't paint our fans in a good light at all.

All involved from both sides have been a disgrace. Does seem like some of our lot had to get involved due to Russians indiscriminately attacking so i'm not having a go at them, it's the ones you see with their tops off launching bottles that are an embarrassment.

You do realise that video is a piss take of how the Russian media a reporting it don't you.
The local who was knocked out was by a Russian aswell.
 
They're a joke mate, they look more like a state sponsored modern dance troupe, wouldn't have lasted five minutes at your old ground. ;)

From Stalingrad to the gayest nation on earth inside a couple of generations, that's some journey. My theory is that they've grasped the sub text of Putin's new Russia, they're his "boys". :)
I must admit I'm really enjoyng your work on this thread :lol:
 
Just seen a post on facebook from someone out there saying SAFC and NUFC casuals have mobbed up together in Lille last night and battered some Zenit St Petersburg Ultras. Also saying a group of Leicester and Stoke fans going around looking for Russians. I'd be amazed if nobody is killed out there (other than that poor NI fan) because the French police haven't got a clue.

Agree, many groups are looking for revenge. With this in mind, the risks and will to cause harm increases. I would imagine that there will be far more weapons in play in Lille and Lens.

A surefire way to lay the blame firmly at the English door which is what everyone on here doesn't want.

I doubt you have taken between 1965 and 1990 in fairness.
