Same here - my brother was supporting Denmark because of the disgusting behaviour of some of the English fans

That's terrible! Especially that it involves a family with a child. Why would anyone do that?


My husband was driving via Lordship Lane that night and there was a big group of fans on the roundabout and running around stopping the traffic. I can understand the disturbance to the traffic, but never any kind of violence. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Some can't take their drink very well - Rye Lane was just singing its coming home and a lot of cars beeping - didn't see any trouble.

Sadly there were assaults in the stadium and on the way home for quite a few Denmark fans. I hope security will be better for the final, given some of the idiots who support England.

Hope they start a fundraiser in the same way as for the little German girl, she's donating it to Unicef. Kids acting better than adults..

No excuse. In vino veritas. Drink brings out the truths of the person. They?re bigoted racists.

I hope the family are all okay and what a terrible thing to have happened.

😱 "Boris made me drink and act like a total twonk" claimed a football fan.

That's a bit of a random association edcam especially as football thugs have been around almost as long as football has been played, so I suspect it was spured on by drink and a lack of emotional intelligence!

Nothing to do with atmosphere as far as I can see. Just a fundamental lack of respect for others and no self-control. What a horrible situation for that family.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
