EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Online Racist Abuse

How horrible is it seeing the media thriving off the the racist abuse that our players received last night? - there’s now no mention of how well our young team played in this tournament anymore.

England fans all around the world are being pointed at and classed as “racist” because some people sit behind fake social media accounts sending DMs to our players.

The thing that annoys myself personally are these fake accounts seem to be from other Countries themselves. I find it hard to believe that hundreds of English people would sit and write tweets/DMs or whatever thinking they would get away with it. Now days it’s so easy to trace someone, get their address, find out where they work etc.

Over the years of following England, seeing Jermaine Defoe score two against Holland when we were 2-0 down to seeing Sterling, Rashford etc scoring in the Euros/qualifiers, these players have sent us flying all over the terraces and we love them for it.

Roll on the away qualifiers/friendlies so that the loyal, genuine, travelling fans who love the lads to bits can continue to support them through good and bad times.

    In reply to Barry Pounder:

    Where ever they’re from or whoever they are, they’re just idiots.

    Imagine Saka, Rashford, Sancho, Sterling waking up now feeling like their Country hates them and hates them more because of who they are.

    Well if they do, they couldn’t be more wrong! without these lads we wouldn’t be the team we are today and wouldn’t have had the tournament we’ve had without them

    blogs: Ian Fenwick: England emerging for bright future

    I’m someone who is lucky enough work within the FA and the one thing I can say from my experience is that the future of English football is amazingly bright. Of course it’s not enough to always say that the things are going to be good in...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Belo Horizonte a fair setting for England’s new beginnings

    Last time the World Cup came to Brazil, England went to the city of Belo Horizonte to be humiliated; it is the scene of that notorious 1-0 defeat to the United States. Perhaps humiliation is too strong a word this time. After all, England’s 2014 World Cup campaign has been marked by single goal defeats to former world champions, whereas back in 1950 the pride of the old First Division went down to what essentially...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: England can bounce back if they take a few risks

    After the disappointment of the last two games, it’s vital that England take risks against Costa Rica. We don’t need two holding midfielders, Roy Hodgson has to start Adam Lallana over Danny Welbeck and we should switch to three men at the back. There was a clear opportunity against Uruguay and Italy to go to a back three – it would have allowed us to put some of our inventive players into more creative...

    blogs: John Hemmingham: Let’s blow our own trumpet for once – come on England!

    I’m used to blowing my own trumpet but not when it comes to predictions – I think we’ll get a result against Uruguay, but I thought we’d beat Italy 4-0! You’ve got to be optimistic as an England fan, sometimes it’s blind optimism but if you do what we do you have to believe. I’ve been following England with the band for 18 years now and it has always been the same. Roy Hodgson...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Uruguay may raise their game away from Fortaleza furnace

    In the build-up to the World Cup a Uruguayan company launched an imaginative advertising campaign. Draped in a sky blue sheet, the colour of Uruguay’s shorts, the ghost of 1950 wandered around Rio frightening the locals – no one ever here needs reminding that the last time the World Cup was held in Brazil, Uruguay walked off with the trophy. So there was an element of Brazilian joy at Uruguay’s humiliating...
