Title: Anne Frank and Italian football
Post by: Nearly Sane on October 24, 2017, 07:18:17 PM


Not sure the idea will work but the  anti semitism that is commonly on display is frightening. Having clicked on Twitter to see why Anne Frank was trending, who needs the dark net when the open stuff is so prevalent.

Very sick indeed, some football fans are the lowest form of scum! >:(

As are some teachers, some surgeons, some vicars, some singers...

I think the term you are looking for is ‘some racists...’

If the response from the footballing authorities is solely due to the incident then I think it’s not a bad start. I’d like to see the same happen at UK football matches.

I am just sick of the way some football fans behave, we have our own share of the evil scumbags who behave in a way which should ban them from watching the game forever! >:( >:( >:(

I’m sick of the way plenty of people behave.

Plenty of football fans don't. If you'd been to a match, you'd know that.

But football fans, en masse, tend to behave worse than the fans of any other sport.

And yet you use the phrase ‘en masse’.
