EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Carnage

At times I was embarrassed to be an England fan yesterday!!!

Having been lucky enough, through the ESTC membership to be re-allocated my group, semi-final and final tickets I awaited each game with hope and anticipation

One of my favourite moments was standing outside the co-op before the Croatia game on Wembley way, drinking my lemonade singing 10 German bombers with the fans.

Move forward to the final - pissed up individuals wearing England shirts throwing beer cans, traffic cones and anything else they could get their hands on!!! It was a beer fuelled riot!!! Very scary at times!!!!

Storming the stadium!!! Accept you don’t have a ticket!!!!! Many of the true fans who have been loyal England fans for years and have endured the dross games during the cold and wet!!! Deserved their seats. They didn’t want to share it with a pissed up yob who’d got in for free!!!

Don’t even start me on racial abuse!!!!

Yes we lost on penalties!!!! Their colour is not why they missed!!!! Their performances in the previous games are the the reason we were in the final!!!

I am proud of every single member of the England team- from coach to players to back room staff.

Come on England, I still believe - Qatar

    Totally agree with you it was scarcely. Completely different from the game against Denmark. With hindsight should have made Wembley an alcohol free zone, and had the security cordons much further out.

    Personally I didn't feel at risk when the barriers were being stormed and pushed over but my Granddaughter who I go with didn't like it and wanted to get inside asap. Then it started just inside entrance F where we were. Not nice for kids to have to witness.

    It was clear it was all getting out of control very early. Queuing for the portaloo next to Wembley arena was particularly interesting, ducking to avoid glass bottles flying through the air. This carnage, hours before even the warm ups.
    All in all, a sad reflection of society & some of the scum that occupy this country.

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Gold-standard stadiums but the infrastructure looks green around the gills

    Some may say that Brazil’s new 2014 stadiums have turned out to be ‘anywhere arenas,’ robbed of their local identity. It is an understandable point of view. A year on from its re-inauguration, I still can’t make my mind up about...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: Shaw and Baines and the art of being comfortably No3

    I’m old enough to have experienced the first-team shirt numbers as 1-11, and No3 was always the left-back. To receive that shirt at World Cup 98 was very special. There have been some greats and you can’t dwell too much on the significance...

    blogs: Mark Wright: England at the World Cup is an amazing, powerful time

    I've got so many memories of watching England - I don't know where to start! But I can always remember when the World Cup was on in 1998 and Michael Owen first played. I had the videotape of the tournament back then and used to watch it religiously...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: The marvels and the madness of the Brazil I know

    Back in 1969, Charlie Croker and his team pulled off the Italian job, sneaking $4 million through a traffic jam. Forty five years later, well into their retirement, Charlie and the boys may well want to cross the Atlantic to follow England’s World...
