i noticed that the russians were dressed in celtic gear
Has anyone said "Wrong board, mate" yet ?
One in the underground where a drunk friend began doing pull ups on an art installation (some real crap art, not a memorial) and a load, maybe not 10, of Frenchman went after us. Bashed me on the noggin. Spat at us. Other french people split it up as we'd have died. This was at 7am and people were going to work.
Then another 4 of them saw us walking out of the underground. They started shouting something in some language and we stopped to look back and they began pegging it after us.
Multiple other occasions like this and it was only the french that did it. The Englanders were the good guys.
Nothing major tbh but I don't follow cardiff or wales away normally so I don't claim to have any experience of foreign fisty cuffs.

I think the problem was that it was Russia Slovakia the day before Wales England and within half hour or something of each other. So some drunk locals probably didn't care to ask us which side of the bridge we came from.
I expected far more trouble because of that but it looks like Russia went all out on the first weekend and didn't bother much for the rest.
The Russians who kicked off in Marseille were not seen again in the following days. This could be, if there's any truth in what I've heard, because they came into Marseille harbour on a Cypriot registered trawler owned by a Ukrainian. It's thought that this is how they got in undetected by plod, and back out again quickly, job done, so to speak.
