Again in Lyon they were attacked by masked gangs etc... Just every time they go away their fans are always targeted!
...sadly it appears that because of the Jewish links, by association, they become the targets of the anti-semitic right wing extremist thugs...
The majority of Europe seems stuck in the early 1900's.
I do feel for them. The fans i met last year gave me a lift in their taxi, they were really friendly
It genuinely amazes me that these people would do salutes used by the people who occupied their country killing millions. What exactly is their thought process?
They must agree with what happened in the past mustn't they. Some humans are not nice people, sad but true

is that a "jewish people are tight with their money" gag? hope not.
Its not anti semitic behaviour
Spurs are well known to have a big hooligan following.
So when they go abroad, they attract the opposing teams hard line support.You go around giving it the big'un what do they expect
Lets not pretend they were in that boozer all sitting down quietly sipping on the local vino.
We all know what happened. They would have been giving it the big'un, annoyed the wrong people, then got their heads kicked in. Im sure there was alot of innocent people, but their away support think they are the boys, so if youre gonna go around saying your hooligans and give it to the wrong people sometimes youll run into trouble.

yes it is, they are proud of their frugal ways same as the scots are, what is your problem with it?
As a scot, I still have a laugh at the "tight scots git" jokes which my friends of 40 years still make.. However, my pet peev is cockney boys referring to us as scotch. (which happens to be an adjective labelling a drink or a roll of sticky tape). :005:
Yes Mr B is a Scot and i pull his leg about being tight, although he isn't. The Spurs fans were a couple of nice ladies, and the one that paid wouldn't accept anything towards the fare. I've got blond hair so used to jokes about that as well ;-)

If they were spouting the same shite they did in the park after we played them it's really no surprise.

I think it's the very absence of a thought process that drives people like that......much the same as Hitlers original followers all those years ago.
The tragedy is that in some areas of life, lessons aren't learned, and the mindless are quite happy to repeat mistakes of the past.
Russian are getting nostalgic for the communist regime and are putting the names back of some of their cities and towns to the early revolutionary period ones.
People has short memories and soon forget the bad things done.

My girlfriends father is from Lyon. I was there recently visiting her grandparents (lovely city by the way) and there's a lot of shame from the older locals for the association with the Vichy

its a negative stereotype, dont care how you wish to justify it either, it's negative.
