Yep, they were too scared or couldn't afford to go to the Euro's, so lets go and kick the **** out of the Italian fans, whose team who were clearly better on the night

Well, yesterday afternoon right before the game I went as usual at my fav irish pub for a guinness (kinda 100 m from my door) and i've been denied the entrance for my origin (i'm italian of course...just not italian looking at all: redhead, blue eyes and defo scottish look a like!) for security reason (not me being violent, but the brits when drunk after a couple of minutes..) at first I was pretty annoyed cause i just wanted my refreshing and most of all deserved sunday pint, but reading this completely changed my mind!!
the sad thing is that here that news is something NOT normal, in italy would be so normal that it wouldn't even be reported in the news!! :-(
God save the queen then!! :-)

Perhaps it would have been okay if you'd explained you were italian?


After all a "no scots" policy is only prudent.

hahahaha! but I did! the bouncer knows me well as it's my weekly place for the holy sunday pint!

Only if all your pub sells is shandy and alcopops :)

The Flame - do you mean in Italy a scuffle like this would not have made the news as it is not uncommon?

Re: Makes you proud to be English
 

The italian fans were obviously milking it
