Why are Brazil training/playing at Fulham? I thought the Emirates was their “european ground”.
Is it just me or are the blokes putting a football flag on a war memorial being total cunts?
andy, it’s not just you. england’s travelling fans proving great ambassadors for the uk once again…
rob, if away fans did that in this country, they would be lucky to get away with it. the england fans are very stupid to have done that.
Ha! Peephole Pringle! Good Partridge reference!
