I love Irn-Bru but never had a deep fried mars bar. I like Haggis though.

There are quite a few different recipes for haggis these days, incl a curried one! I still prefer the traditional version all the same - add some mashed neep to the plate and a touch of brown sauce, yummy!

Back to the violence
and it is reported that firms are now in lille im not sure what this means ? as i have seen a few old boys in the pictures going over but i think most are kiddie firms who can obviously still travel 
but thats what im hearing firms are now over there and a few battles have been won allready ? also that French police keep tear gassing the inconcent fans for singing

Not impressive at all TBF and all this mayhem, well into the night, does not help England's cause one jot!
Here's a good bbc article that covers the pressures on Hodgson/the FA, Russia and the French authorities. It's a fairly good summary of the issues related to England's probs and other actions that poss should've been initiated by the FA.

To tell you the truth 0762 i couldnt give a xxxx about Woy and his team anymore ( sorry never could )
i would just like to see some Russian ultra blood spilt allover the place after what they did to the innocent fans in marseillie 
i would also like the xxxx kiddies to grow up and stop singing stupid xxxx songs that rile other countrys up aswell as long as we keep it clean with the other countrys its fine by me getting banned for giving these ultras a good sending off back to there homes in London xxxx the next WC cups aswell can you imagine how that would play out anyway

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and has 20/20 vision but the article is right in so much as what could have been predicted. I am not sure anyone predicted the type of thug to arrive from Russia but even so the reputation of Englands fans should have been warning enough. There is no doubt England's fans past history puts a target on their backs for any other country's hooligans to take aim at, and that has been very evident this time, but the choice of Marseilles and Lens for these games is stupid, and IIRC this was mentioned in the media when the draw was made, but yet still no one listened. Thats one of the problems with UEFA and in particular FIFA, its their stubborness to look at logical complaint and advice when they make a bad decision and make a change when everyone else can see it needs to be changed. I am ok with Russia holding the WC but still we sit here and listen to reports of so many people dying to build crazy stadiums in Qatar for a WC that absolutely no one wants and has now virtually been proved to be both a flawed choice and a corrupt one as well. The FA of any country could complain until they are blue in the face, once these dinasaur organisations make a decision there is nothing on earth that will get them to admit a mistake and change it!!

One of the England fans, interviewed last night by SSN after the tear gas had been deployed, said that the French authorities were not up to the job and the tournament should be taken off them.
Well yes. Obviously every major football tournament should be held in England because we're the only country in the world that has the ability to stage something of this magnitude correctly.
But it's a bit late now.Maybe it should've been taken away from them for their own safety after the Paris terrorist attacks last year. They've got enough on their plates with all that going on and shouldn't have been burdened with the job of chaperoning football supporters intent of enjoying themselves at what should be a festival of football.

Eh ?
It's a drawn tournament SCO, if you are selected as team X in group Z you will play where those games have already been designated. End of.
What should UEFA do? Say, "OK, guys, you are meant to be playing in Marseille but seeing as your fans can't be trusted to behave we are looking for a volunteer to swap with you... Iceland, Austria, mind swapping Lyon for Marseille?" I don't think so.
These cities are major footballing venues in france,they were always going to be included.
