    Im presuming this was that bulldog thread thats gone......it comes to something when you cant even talk about the gameness of a terrier on a working dog forum.....i was under the common sense assumption that the people commenting on that topic were either former gamedog owners or present gamedog enthusiasts,either way folk should be able to have a natter without having their arses wiped for them in my opinion but such is life.

    Must admit that does look very calming and theraputic i could quite get into an aftenoon of clippity clop whispering my dulcet tones into his/her ear.......closest ive had to riding on a gee gee was the donkey rides along Clacton sea front

    So is this another one where the parent gets blamed for taking their eyes off a kid when wild animals are in the vicinity ?.....or can we put this one down to an accident ?

    We had to expect something mate.....hooliganism in Russia is big at the moment and they see England as the holy grail.....apparently the fan forums had been warning people not to discuss what bars they was meeting in for ages leading up to the tournament so it wasnt a surprise really......the only surprise was how organised they were and how they just havent grasped that families/kids/shirters are out of bounds !! Yes we are leaving for Lille later today,back on Friday then fly to St Etienne Sunday and back home Tuesday with options for further games when/if we get through.....its like any

    Would it be fair to say you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about ? I asked you what the lesson to learn was.....and you still havent told me ?....for you to try to compare terrace culture to having a straightener on the cobbles tells me you are trying to use common sense logic along with a little dab of humour to bluff your way through a conversation on a subject your not familiar with........which is fine............but your sly little digs to a person who is being respectful really let you down

    My answer would be no.....to be exactly the same would be a duplicate.....all animals will grow up with their own personalities according to its environment......no ?

    Italy are just so clinical.....not sure id fancy watching that sort of football every week but they certainly know how to get a result....it will be interesting to watch how they play if they go behind in a game.

    Exactly.....so maybe its you that thinks we are better than what we are if your not happy with that performance ? As an average international side i was well pleased with the performance just a shame about the result. I don't think we are better than we are, I think we are bloody awful......but there is no excuse for it if you get my drift mate. Some may call me unrealistic but I just prefer to call dross dross. I think we,ve had the conversation before mate as West Ham fans we support an average club and therefore dont expect too much.....i dont see it any different with England

    To me proper footie violence is when sets of likeminded folk bash f**k out of each other...... not when organised firms of French/African/Russians steam at guys with their families and start kicking anyone up in the air who happens to be wearing an England shirt ! I agree we have got lads there who are pretending to live up to a reputation whos heart is not really in it and so maybe serves them right........im not sure if im a genuine fan or not i was well into all that nonsense years ago and to this day i,ll have a stand up with anybody but im f****d if im running round the streets like a

    Whats the lesson then chief ?.......dont go to watch a football match if you are English ? Are you a bit punchy ALF stick to talking boxing and football fantasies oh and canaries LOL What you having a pop at me for it was a simple enough question......or is that what you always do when you dont know what to say next.

    maybe he thinks England should get points deducted for tearing up the port area and attacking the police for two days before they got a hiding off the Russians Where you had that from mate ?......i aint got eyes in the back of my nut but i didnt see or hear anything like that......from the minute we checked in we was getting told about attacks from local French/Africans etc.......our fans aint whiter than white i know that but on this occasion i dont think our lot did anything that wasnt started by others.... in the main. All over the main & sports media from Friday morning (repor

    How it works is anything that happens inside a ground is down to Uefa......anything that happens outside a ground is down to police.......my guess would be French police liased with English police and identified folk that way.......and French police liased with Russian police and was told to get f****d !

    I know a chap who does a bit of scouting for West Ham just looking at kids from local leagues etc......occasionally he will get sent abroad to look at a player and he reckons the difference in grass roots football is amazing......according to him we place too much emphasis on winning from an early age......it might of been Holland i forget now but he told me they are not allowed to play in competitive matches until they are 16......i said so how do you know if they are any good if they,re not playing competitively......he said wouldnt you know if a kid had potential as a fighter from watching

    Yes of course its been popular over the years .....up and down the country.....and now most of Europe.......i dont make the rules son its just how it is.

    So they live in France and support the French football team... Wouldn't that make them French supporters? The business with Tunisia go,s back to the world cup in 98 BGD......our opening game was against them and there was massive violence in Marseille again from the old port right down to the beech it was a messy few days and theres a big North African population there so i guess they didnt forget.

    Saying " lets send some English football hooligans over to sort it out ".....would be like saying " lets send Desertbred and a few of his mates to sort out Isis " !.......its not even the same sport !! Football hooliganism was never about winning and losing it was about standing your ground thats what made it so attractive even lads who couldnt fight.........expecting groups of lads out for a beer and a singsong/fathers and sons/families to " stand their ground " to a bunch of military trained tooled up rampaging Russians is nothing whatsoever to do with the terrace culture associated with

    Whats that got to do with the popular culture of fighting at football ?......if you dont know what your talking about mate dont just guess......thats just silly

    Your right to take it with a pinch of salt mate...its just never been the done thing for English fans to plot up together the only few times i ever remember it happening was when theres been some sort of nationalist element to it like there was at Lansdowne Road in 95 or Dusseldorf in 88 a lot of lads tried to unite for France 98 but its just seen as weak in this country....honestly mate those Russians were on another level to anything ive seen....for most of us it was all a bit of a laugh years ago but this is a different scale this Russian mob were like an army unit it was a completely diffe

    Anyway nice easy one to get to Thursday be no different to driving up to Sheffield or somewhere......little 3 hour drive and no threats of violence from our neighbors Its just that Bale that worries me i reckon once he gets running at that Smalling we might be needing a win from the last game.

    It must be like fighting a good counter puncher you have to weigh up the risk of whats coming back before committing to the punch.........so they get after Rooney and he turns them or plays through them and puts Vardy away.........will they keep committing to getting after him..... i guess thats the threat of having a speed merchant up front
