They might have been at one point but at least it's better controlled in the football grounds in the UK and it would stamped out quite quickly - I'm not English by the way and not a fan of English football.

Are you serious?
I've been to loads of games watching my club and England,
and have seen no racist actions at all.
Poland and Ukraine should get kicked out, how on earth they were allowed to have them in the first place when FIFA must have known about it from the start.

Think this may be better on the football forum , as for the orginal queston it does still excist but not on the scale of 70s/80s

Suspect you might need to watch the footage.

Maybe in the seventies and eighties, but when was the last time you saw English fans waiving knives and meat cleavers around in the stands like some of the Turkish fans do?

There is no better programme that gives you facts, which is why 3 Premier League managers have thrown their toys out of the pram over it, it gives you facts not fiction , unlike the Murdoch/Mail scum

Like it or not, it is the English skinhead/hooligan/casual scene from the 70's through to the 90s that they very consciously model themselves upon, right down to the brand labels on the clothes they wear.

I'm assuming there's no $hit to stir then?

Conversely, when something is 'current' the press/media take an interest in it, it's not a new thing.

Something tells me there may be a bit more restraint/Police control when it comes to the Euros - What with it being watched worldwide, and neo-nazism, racism and football violence aren't exactly seling points these days

You would think so yes but there is only so much the police can do. They can't be everywhere outside of the grounds and in the local bars etc.

Didn't Sky Sports News do this....and much much better without the hysteria that Panaroma loves nearly a month ago?

No surprise about the extent of racism, and was frankly staggered that these two countries got the tournament.....

Disgraceful behaviour. Bring back Stalin to deal with these hooligans. All is forgiven.

It's very, very rare in English football these days - and any time there are any incidents it's soon stopped. The best guardians against it are the fans themselves. If anyone did start a racist chant they'd soon told to shut up.

Shocking, disgraceful. And as for the official who said they weren't Nazi salutes, the fans were just pointing..... shameful.

That Ukranian police chiefs explanation is laughable because it is just so pathetic.

I have a really bad feeling about this tournament. Obviously there will be a greater police presence inside the stadiums, but there won't be nearly enough in the bars and clubs. Going to end in disaster.
