why is this? are national team games more expensive or are they just not interested?

Prob same reason why The main English hooligans don't travel now, they have their passports taken away from them before international games.

Lack of interest for the most part. You have to understand something, for the hooligans here football is a business, they don't go to matches to support as the primary reason; they go because clubs are their turf they control a lot of things, ticket sales, parking lots, they can even threaten the club players to give them money.
In national team matches they can't really do all this stuff so they aren't interested.

Depends on the match, if you go to watch Boca-River in Boca's stadium you are taking your risks I don't think anything would happen to you as long as you have seats far from the usual troublemakers and know your way around more or less.

Can't get the damn video to show up, so ignore this post!

I'm quite liking this concept as a way to actually get weirdly involved in the tournament. It's like how having a little bet always makes a sport you don't follow more interesting, except without losing loads of money because i know **** all about the sport.

As I understand it my campaign started with a draw against @munstermuffin, after which instead of kicking the **** into each other we had a charming little singalong together and the watching world applauded, teary-eyed at the purity, innocence and humanity of the gesture.

Tomorrow I take on the might of @Thingimubob, who I gather is pretty good at football.

Erm well I'm highly rated on paper, but bloody terrible on the pitch as a team. I somehow manage to be the dark horse at every tournament, but still fall flat on my face...

(Also in real life, I'm bleedin' awful at football have zero ability to control the ball. Can't even run round into space either as I now just get winded, or more recently fall over and regularly sprain my ankle. I'm the Daniel Sturridge of amateur 5 a side, minus the ability to score goals.)

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Woo, go Spain!
We scored three home runs and Turkey didn't even got a slam dunk!
We'll make the superb owl at this rate

Well I guess we'll find out tomorrow. I'm the team that everyone likes because "the craic" or some such notion.

please tell me that was intentional

Lol at an Argentinian taking the high ground on Hooliganism.

Fek me your Country has a crap record of violent behaviour at football games. Worse than England.

Also the Irish love in is getting on my ***s esp by Joe.ie (or whatever it is), nice at first but now so what? Obviously going for a historical back to back fair play award.



Also Croatian fans protesting the CFA, stupid idiots.

Nah bro, we're just class. There's not a single picture of an Emglishman and a Russian having fun, is that because the media want to sell stories about hooliganism and contrast it with the close, but not close enough to claim it as your own, neighbours being way better in every single way to the point where not even one will slur a word due to too much alcohol? Would the media really do that? Nah man, **** off.

Also, 2-1 Ireland tomorrow, the Belgians are the Dutch of this tournament and Irish football fares well against those orange men.

I think most dangerous cities are in central america, I doubt any south american city is in that list except for Caracas and maybe some brazilian city.

I've seen that but it has to be BS. It's based on crime rates. Quite a few very dangerous places don't even have the stats so they don't make the list.
Only one Africa city in the top 20, none from Eastern Europe. BS

Come on you boys in green!

**** my work for having me on at 3 today!!

I feel that I have an obligation to initiate some sort of banter due to being assigned Wales and Wales having topped a group including England (I feel like that would be the Welsh thing to do in this situation).

But really though, whose stupid idea was it to field your second string team in a game that you need to win to avoid playing a decent team? You have defeated the Mighty Welsh on the pitch, but its the position on the end table that counts (although to be fair, Iceland or Portugal haven't been too impressive, although Portugal is always a threat with Ronaldo if he pitches up).

For all the talk of the mighty Welsh being a one man team, we still are scoring goals with all our other players too. Plus the fantastic Bale has scored as many goals as the whole English squad put together. Well done on making it out of the group stages, enjoy getting knocked out at the round of 16!

Okay, I'm done now. That felt unnatural but I had a duty.
