Fuck me, Goal is a terrible film in so many ways

Tough always being drawn with a nation as good as Holland.

RvP starts then.

Had this as a kid http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Roma-Football-Shirt-38-inches-black-/170853700147?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27c7ac9233#ht_500wt_1287 Was lush.

fucking triffic

I'd bring a ladder.

AND LET HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE! Silly stance to be had imo. I'm not saying these things are acceptable but people are extrapolating small incidents to be representative of the whole population. The media have had an agenda for the past few years that Eastern Europe is too 'backwards' to host a major event and I feel that people are playing in with it a bit. Why was no-one saying Euro 2000 was a failure because this happened? Nobody, in here at least, is using small isolated incidents as fuel to label an entire nation. I am certainly not saying that this tournament will be a failure because of said incidents. I'm merely pointing those incidents out, raising an awareness. Now I know you should only really raise an awareness if you firmly believe that your actions in doing so will lead to an improvement or change or whatever, but it is needs must in that respect as its basically essential evidence for the main purpose of the thread... highlighting how UEFA are openly trying to spin all incidents and get them hidden away. The show must go on... In regards to the media, you may have a point. That Panorama was a tad Chris Morris.

And it isn't just the mainstream British media that is bring the incidents to our attention. In fact, they're not particularly active on anything outside of the stuff covered in panorama.

Why has an old Roma kit been linked? Oh wait, that's new?

Fucking bias in that post, man.

Didn't realise police were in their rights to brush any public disorder under the rug if it only has 20 people involved.

Looking forward to seeing your pics Fighting between fans and stewards isn't unusual. Should be expected really, so I doubt UEFA are sweating on what has happened so far.

OK, so the authorities, this time its the turn of the Polish police force, seem happy to deny fan clashes as well: NOTHING TO SEE HERE. MOVE ALONG PLEASE. NOTHING TO SEE HERE. Except the guy with blood streaming from his nose...

f*** it, needs to be seen before UEFA make it disappear Russian Fans FIGHT with Polish STEWARDS! Wroclaw UEFA EURO 2012

Unfortunately Parker is turd at international tournament level. I too have the spirit, but like Parker...

Exactly. Highlights how little spirit there is between our top players.

Amazing piece of kit from marca http://www.marca.com/deporte/futbol/eurocopa/2012/goles4d.html

fwiw, Guthrie goes ahead of Barton. Easily.

Has a point about Henderson, but he's still not good enough? Should just shut up really.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAA Warranted response^
