England fans in Amsterdam
- Thread starter unification
- Start date
It may be a crass generalisation but England fans in general seem more moronic than club fans. I’d happily have a chat with an opposition supporter before a game and wish them well for the season afterwards, however that seems beyond the capabilities of England fans.
Drinking, singing, a bit of revelry is fine – throwing other people’s property in the canals, soaking tourists and locals in beer. If there wasn’t a game on, would there be any sort of tolerance of this? It’s dim-witted.
Seeing England fans head to Wembley seems to be down to three demographics for me – kids with dads, 40-50 year old fat men and an ever decreasing group of spotty, skinny late teen/early twenties Stone Island clad ‘lads’. You just don’t see the generation that grew up on Fantasy Football and got hooked on England at Euro ’96 at games anymore. Who can blame them when the good humour that surrounded England has been replaced by the yobbish behaviour, '10 German bombers' songs and slurs against Muslims seen in Amsterdam?

When I lived abroad I used to feel ashamed when the so called Engurland fans were in town. All it takes is a few brain dead bottom feeders to start and the whole nation gets blamed.
The Russians, both police and "ultras" will tear them to pieces and then lock them up in their finest establishments.
I wouldn't go if you paid me. Not that the world cup should be taking place in Russia anyway.
