Euro 2012: Neo-Nazi Threat To England Fans

[redman41]

Ukrainian football hooligans have warned Black and Asian England supporters not to travel to the country for Euro 2012.
A Sky Sports News Special Report investigation has discovered that racist thugs in Donetsk will be targeting England fans when the tournament kicks off next month.They are motivated by a hatred of foreigners and fuelled by neo-Nazi politics.


Not a nice place to visit and will give the Ukraine a bad name !
Hope it's not going to be the same in Poland
Football deserves better than this

This sort of thing makes you wonder why the English football fans are the most hated in the world, other countries have far worse 'fans' these days than our ever were.

Does not bode well even for Tourists visiting the Country for the first time whether they are interested in Football or not.
Great shame as I'm sure it's a beautiful Country with a Coastline on the Black Sea

Before every major tournament you get these scare stories though.
Yes there probably are gangs of hooligans wanting a punch up but there are in nearly every country in Europe.
I remember before the World Cup in South Africa there were tales of how everybody was going to get murdered and fully expect the same stuff before the next World Cup in crime ridden Brazil.

The media loves stuff like this,I dare say there our stories in foreign media about the terrorist threat at the London Olympics.

I saw clips of this documentary on Sky today and they came across as a few inadequate attention-seeking nazi pricks, nothing more.

MightyWBA and Duncer are quite right. These fans live in a sad deluded world and they also live in a country which will show zero tolerance to any of their own people threatening to drag their country's name into the dirt. The Dinamo 'ultras' btw are crap :-)
What struck we about this film was the fact that the England team had turned down the chance to base themselves in Donetsk in favour of sticking with a base in another country 100s of miles away.

Poland is the place for hooliganism if anywhere is. We still remember the charmers who flew in from Poland to Belfast for a WC qualifier a few years ago...

[Arksided]

A set of idiotic nobs trying to scaremonger, OK all countries have their domestic problems... its such a shame that football seems to be a convenient vehicle for nobheads to portray their own prejudice and bring shame to their own country

[Duncer]

ichkeria is spot on with his last remark - a large contingent of shaven headed knuckle-dragging nazi morons came looking for trouble and caused considerable disruption on the day. Even worse, when they got some back there were pathetic accusations of sectarianism/racism from the big "brave" skinheads.

Causing trouble in a city with paranilitary groups is never the brightest idea anyway.
