Guilty as charged. Getting a bit boring now, though.

These are facts, trying to get into the stadium without tickets fighting. The mess left in Wembley and London. Worst of all the racist abuse against the lads that missed their penalties. We have been fined by Eufa for the light in the Danish keepers eyes, and I think it was racist chanting. Booing and not respecting other nations national anthems. It is not social media "doing its thing" The fans deserve criticism, I realise not all are bad but they could point out the ones that are bad. :cuss: :banghead: :tsk:
Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.

^^^

The majority of that you can't give any evidence that it was in fact 'English' people. Particularly the anonymous online guff. It IS social media very much doing its thing. Having what's called a 'pile-on' attacking a particular person or group without having facts to warrant the pile-on.

Take the below picture for example...

People going mad over this one of 'English thugs'. How do we know the owner of the flare-holding arse is indeed English?

Can you imagine if Beckham, Southgate or Waddle had put out pictures of them flaunting grotesque wealth on a private jet... less than a week after contributing to England being knocked out. There'd probably be a few more effigies of Beckham hanging in the streets than there already was, that's for sure.

How times have changed. I'm glad we are a more compassionate country since those times, mind. Enjoy your riches, lads. :D
