    Anyone watching the scenes in Frankfurt on sky news..A large group of England supporters have refused to leave the square and are basicly hammered!. (been there since 12 miday)

    Riot police have moved in.

    They have been chanting things like , " Let's go f'ing mental" and "Two world wars and one world cup" to taunt the german police and a few bottles have been thrown.

    Interesting developments , although not suprising.

    Anyone with sky news active can watch a live camera at the scene.

    I think they are in the "Der Romer" part of the city there (near starbucks lol).... but its a shame that they are ruining the atmosphere in such a beautiful city.

    btw did anyone see the model spitfire that they had.... (just dickheads really)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    I'm sure we can expect lots more of this in the coming weeks.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    I'd love for them to send in the GSG9 and fuck them over


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,617 ✭✭✭raheny red


    Is there anywhere online where one could watch this? There is a camera on Doyle's Corner but Bohs are not playing for a few weeks so there will be no trouble there :p :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,963 ✭✭✭SpAcEd OuT


    I was wondering this also


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    did ye see that a number of british police have been sent over to germany to help police the world cup? dunno if it's just british ones (or why if that is the case), or if they have coppers from other countries too, but they were on sky news earlier.

    edit:
    "...but this was a time to make friends. and this is the attitude that has won england supporters the admiration of many."

    A reporter just said on Sky News :D

    Wouldn't a model Lancaster be a bit more appropriate?

    It's not just British police, it's police from other nations too. It's believed that if people see their own police force patrolling instead of just the German one, it'll cause less conflict. I can't find a source, I think it was from TV or radio that I heard it.

    No soccer related threads please. I know it's the world cup but please refrain from posting about it on here.
