The Football Association’s chairman, Greg Clarke, has condemned the “inappropriate, disrespectful and disappointing” behaviour of England fans in Germany on Wednesday night – but stopped of issuing an apology to their hosts.
England’s 1-0 defeat in Dortmund was marred by supporters booing the German national anthem, outstretching their arms to mimic fighter planes, and spending large parts of the night going through a repertoire of songs about the first and second world wars. The FA is now liaising with the UK Football Policing Unit about going through the video footage to see if it is possible to identify any member of the England Supporters Travel Club who might have been involved with a view to potentially banning them.
“The behaviour of a section of the support in Dortmund was inappropriate, disrespectful and disappointing,” Clarke said. “The FA has consistently urged supporters to show respect and not to chant songs that could be regarded as insulting to others. Individuals who engage in such behaviour do not represent the overwhelming majority of England fans nor the values and identity we should aspire to as a football nation.

Football fans are the last implicit sign of white masculinity in Europe.

That's legit nothing, the shit I've seen and heard at some Tottenham Hotspur games and a few French games is actually insane.

thats just funny though, why are the people with no sense of humour and the ones who were bullied in school in charge of everything now?
David Turner
It does reflect the feeling of most Brittish fans.

Pretty sure even the football association doesn't really give a shit. German fans don't care. British fans don't care. People who don't care about football certainly don't care. The organizations don't care.
The only people who act like they care are shitty journalists who try to drum up controversy for clicks. Then the associations have to put out some nonsense statement for pr reasons upon which they won't act.
German clubs have been insulting each other for decades and as long as it doesn't become physical, nobody batted an eyelash. Since Trump and Brexit this behaviour is now suddenly a sign of the coarsening and divisiveness of public life and our society. Fucking lying press.

I can relate to the humor. Especially of tragical comedy character is, that by celebrating their victory over Germany, they are celebrating that now their country will be destroyed by foreigin hordes and that Europe will be a thrid world hell hole in the near future.

Also the destruction of their empire & from being one of the strongest countries in the world to an irrelevant backwater
But hey what a great fucking war it was... Lots of good shit to think about....
Western civilization means nothing compared to the great victory over racism & bigotry!

>ban those involved
Did anyone watch the game? Everyone was singing it, this wasn't a handful of hooligans like they are trying to imply.
They will either ban nobody or they will ban a handful at random in a sad attempt to look like they care.
Even the most left leaning parasites wouldnt be mad at this though, they would probably join in.
