'Let's have a world cup in Turkey'.
I mean I get what you're saying (aimed at my post), but we had a fan run on and punch jack grealish in the head , did we not ? That's a corner flag BTW
I mean... we've just done Russia and Qatar, I think Turkey is fairly tame compared to what these morons could go with if they got a big enough bung. Somali World Cup anyone?Sorry mate, it genuinely wasn't a go at you.
I've just seen Turkey too many times and I think if there was a tournament there, there would be serious issues. Not just a few security guards telling people off for doing X,Y,Z.
Rwanda. And then all the people that came over on boats to be in England can at least then go and watch some England World Cup group games.I mean... we've just done Russia and Qatar, I think Turkey is fairly tame compared to what these morons could go with if they got a big enough bung.

Doesn't look like anyone is going there under that scheme thankfully. However, Rwanda could use some of the millions we have sent to them to build some stadiums.Rwanda.

Truly horrendous but looking at the twitter thread this was far from the only terrible thing that happened.Incredible he managed to travel so far clearly with a weapon and attack the goalkeeper without anyone even trying to stop him.

‘Still not a reason to host it in England’They're savages. If there was a proper tournament there, it would be complete chaos.
Keeping the tournament in “traditional” countries sounded dubious enough, but keeping it away from the “savages” is seriously dodgy imo.They're savages. If there was a proper tournament there, it would be complete chaos.

That does sound bad but there was a guy stabbed while getting into an ambulanceIt's still nowhere near as bad as some of the violence around games in Italy with people being shot around the stadium or killed inside by flares being launched.
Because there’s a pretty dodgy history of white English guys referring to foreigners as “savages”.Why is that?
Yeah it's dreadful but there's been some awful violence over here over the last 10-15 years that I had no idea went on.That does sound bad but there was a guy stabbed while getting into an ambulance

How many times do I need to have visited Turkey to achieve your levels of insight? Is what you’re describing the typical Turkish football experience?I honestly think you need to get out and travel a bit more, and I mean that with the most respect possible.
People going around stabbing other supporters are savages.
Supporters attacking team busses with guns are savages.
Fans going after an opposition goalkeeper with a corner flag are savages.
It has nothing to do with some over-correction from historical events.
You can travel there as much or as little as you like, you are writing from a perspective which shows that you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. The holier-than-thou approach doesn't mitigate that either.How many times do I need to have visited Turkey to achieve your levels of insight?

How do you mean? I haven’t said anything about Turkish football, I just asked you the question.You can travel there as much or as little as you like, you are writing from a perspective which shows that you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

I didn’t say they should monopolise it. Just maybe get it more than once in going on 24 years.Keeping the tournament in “traditional” countries sounded dubious enough, but keeping it away from the “savages” is seriously dodgy imo.
And the “savages”?I didn’t say they should monopolise it. Just maybe get it more than once in going on 24 years.
This is a thread discussing violence at Turkish football matches.How do you mean? I haven’t said anything about Turkish football, I just asked you the question.
Ok sorry. Guess it’s off to Thomas Cook for me in the meantime.This is a thread discussing violence at Turkish football matches.
You are talking about 'white Englishmen' and historical events. I'm really not interested in that kind of debate on this thread.
That wasn’t my comment. I’ve said where ‘new’ I think would be good places for it to go in the near future. They could have gone there this year but out of rank corruption it was given somewhere where the stadia are going to be deconstructed or downsized after the tournament.And the “savages”?
Don’t give FIFA any ideas!!'Let's have a world cup in Turkey'.
