How is this scraping the barrel exactly? Would you prefer they didn't let us know about the sh!tty behaviour of a minority of English fans?

It's such a tiny incident - if true - that it really isn't worth the paper it's written on. There is probably worse behaviour in the womens institute.

What's to gain by turning a blind eye to it though, Lucan? As it's only a minority getting up to this sort of behaviour it should be able to root them out and keep them at home in future years.

I'm puzzled by those who are more put out by the fact that it has been reported than the fact that it happened.

You know how the media work right?

There were probably thousand upon thousands of worse things happening around the area at any given time and the English probably behaving a lot better than many countries fans. Maybe sometimes it would be nice if the British media devoted that many column inches to the good natured behaviour of the fans - or simply something actually important.

They won't though because people love being offended and thinking the worse, by the time it does the rounds it will be reported 50 times worse and God knows someone might have even shown his or her bottom.

And if they are identified they’ll probably try to play the victim card.

They seem to have been bonding with the Russian far-right by doing this it would seem.

Not at all. The press, as you well know, have always been like rabid dogs trying to get England fans to misbehave and have been known to pay to get individuals pissssed up on occasions. No excuse for these two but the poster was correct.

It's not a nothing story to anyone who loves our country, respects its history or knows what their forebears went through because of stuff like that.

"Lest we forget" goes back further than that lot.

Why should it be hushed up at all? There's been loads of positive coverage about fans of all nationalities including the English wreath laying etc.

Must admit I don't like it being reported. These idiots could be dealt with behind closed doors. I despise it being highlighted and these morons embarrassing our nation. As usual a minority of idiots ruin it for everyone.

The press have handed out drinks - and money - to England fans on many occasions!!!!!

Did someone just say that they hoped the two (are we really talking two / 2 / zwei / deux / dos / ??) England fans get a kick in from Russian hoolies?

These must me the ultra hard right Ruskies yeah?

It's two individuals acting like morons amongst thousands who are partying and having a great time. It's a non story to me.

Obviously the two p1ssed idiots are a big news story for some by the look of it.

Possibly even worth a good ol w4nk.

Did everyone miss this:

"In the early hours of Tuesday morning in an English pub in central Volgograd, a Guardian reporter heard three young Russian men sing a chant involving the words “Hitlerjugend SS”, apparently a common chant among far-right football supporters in Russia and Ukraine. Elsewhere in the pub, England and Tunisia fans were drinking together with locals amid a party atmosphere."

The far right is a far greater problem or has a greater presence in Europe than it is in the UK. If you read the whole article, you will see a paragraph that refers to Russian fans making reference to the SS. The history of many of the Soviet/Russian Republics and neighbouring countries is complex and problematical in respect of their relationship with Fascism.

None of which is acceptable, but I think we are pretty liberal compared to many countries and no I am not sticking up for these twonks, but I am proud to be English.
