Can't fault them for their numbers and noise but considering the fine Wales got recently for a flare at the Austria game I'm expecting some heavy enforcement against the Polish fans for tonight. Constant flares from the first minute onwards, fireworks shot across the stadium (luckily up and out of the stadium unlike the Romania tragedy) , pitch invader at the end and a lot of Polish fans with tickets in the Wales sections. Could have gone very badly wrong on another night.
Several Polish fans near me in the Ninian stands were heavily attacked by Welsh fans. They were sporting Polish scarves and flags and not disturbed until Poland scored. Without excusing the attackers, these Poles stood up and continued to celebrate extremely exubrantly for much longer than was wise. I think they were still at it minutes later.
I think it regrettable that adults feel the need to be violent to opposing fans but we know what can happen - and I think that the stewards allowing them in the Wales end whilst bedecked in Polish paraphernalia needs to be reviewed.
