England V Switzerland match thread on 22:51 - Sep 8 by QPR1882
There is a massive housing estate in Lyon packed to the rafters with them and the bus from our camp site to centre of Lyon went right though the estate, not a nice bus ride.They used to stand on the bus looking you in the eye waving a knife about waiting for us to start, used to just smile at them.
Kept off the beach in Marseille saw enough of them riding about on mopeds with the the guy on the back waving knives about to know not to fck with them. Just sat in a bar breathing in tear gas.
Similarly in Montpellier when England played France. We had to get to the ground via an estate that had its own police station !!! I had to pick my ticket up from the FA who were in the gendarme office.The local French were fine but the Arabs took up their favourite pastime of seeing if bottles can fly from the tenth floor of a tower block.

But do you not think the fact England were playing Tunisia in France at the World Cup had something to do with it?
We were playing Argentina when I was in Lyon. No I don't think it mattered who we were playing, guess it was a ' had to be there situation ' to see how bad they are.
