English fans goose stepping.

Racism casts a cloud over World Cup 2006

In the last year:

• Eto'o, who stars for Spanish power Barcelona, could be seen mouthing "no more" after being taunted in February with monkey sounds for a second year by Zaragoza fans. The team was fined $10,700, but that didn't stop Santander fans from insulting Eto'o two months later.

• Ivory Coast and Messina defender Marc Zoro was reduced to tears by racist slurs and boos last November from Inter Milan fans.

• Criticizing an influx of foreign players in Ukraine, national coach Oleg Blokhin said youngsters should learn from native sons, "not some zumba-bumba whom they took off a tree, gave him two bananas and now he plays in the Ukrainian League."

• Ujpest FC, a top Hungarian team, was fined $23,250 by the country's federation in December after its fans chanted anti-Semitic slurs during a league match.

• AS Roma played its Feb. 8 home game at a neutral site and without spectators as punishment for its fans displaying Nazi and fascist symbols in a match against Livorno.

No Ewker, we aren't talking white white as in American white. We're talking Eurotrash, Depesh Mode 'clear white'.

Eurotrash, Love em. A couple of years ago we had a "Football" team visit here from Europe.
During one period 5 of the goons decided to bring a little European theme to the game and started a fight....apparently Southern Sheriffs Deputies are not near as understanding as the Euroweenie cops.

But like any good pack of scum they are really only dangerous in large crowds. Two years ago we had the G-8 Summit in Sea Island Georgia. The biggest downer of the whole time was that we were told we could not use our hose streams or tools on the protesters.

Nigal - that's the flag of Northern Ireland - they're prolly more of an ultra-right wing group than football fans.
