Did anybody watch this? What are your views on the racism that is obviously going to happen?
I knew the supporters were bad but i had no idea it was like this   Seems crazy that the countries were picked for the Euros.

Typical BBC overhyping everything. I'm sure they said everyone would be stabbed to death in South Africa.
Don't believe the hype the BBC spin, I know a lad who goes over their every year to see family and watch a few games, never had an issue. I'm sure you could find the same types of fans in England.

I thought the BBC may of been doing that but some of the footage was disgusting, like the time when a load of fans trapped some asian fans (home fans) and started kicking the shit out of them and nobody helped. Also says alot when black or asian families are told to stay at home.
Hopefully it wont be as bad as they said but from the footage i saw they are some crazy ass supporters.

Haven't watched the documentary but there is 2 sides to every story.
I would guarantee any racism will be on a small scale, probably so small the most you will hear of it is the BBC and trash tabloids like The Sun and The Mirror blowing 1 incident vastly out of proportion.

I agree with that, im sure our papers will be the only thing making something out of nothing. However it was a decent program to watch (only half an hour long), it should be on iplayer for those who are interested

Unfortunately Panorama has lost its credibility in recent years. Too many times its been caught out showing things that were not really true or that were biast.
A few years ago they did one to do with wifi/phoone signals and how bad they were and it was riddled with mistakes.

The amount of 1 sided bullshit they have done against Royal Mail has made me doubt anything they show these days.

Oleg Voloshyn has done himself no favours saying ..
"Nazi symbols can be seen at ... any match in England, but does it mean that fans should not come to London for the Olympics?,"
Me thinks hes not been to many England matches. I've not seen a Nazi symbol at a match for a long time. A perfect example where he thinks it is just normal and its the same as everywhere else when its nothing of the sort.

Great way of putting it Nath. Suprised we didnt also get told that the racism England fans will suffer over there will cause them to get cancer.
