Benidorm Police After England v Sweden

I dragged up that quote because you flagged me for observing that you'd called out people for not criticising something that hadn't been posted yet (and when it was, EVERYONE criticised it). There's having contrary opinions and then there's being a nutcase. Obviously the police shouldn't hit people carrying children (unless those people are endangering the children)Daggs said:
As I asked. Do you have any criticism of the Spanish police?Leuth said:Daggs said:Absolute tripe by a bunch if effeminate snowflakes who have no idea what it means to represent England in the World Cup.
It will take a near miracle for us to proceed from the group.
Bobby Moore, Ray Wilson, Nobby Stiles, Geoff Hurst etc. Would be embarrassed by the performance of this bunch of posers. They are more suited to the girls' grammar 1st eleven along with their manager.
Harry Kane is exempt from any of my comments.
Or will you just keep dragging that quote up. That is nothing to do with this thread, in your never ending quest to belittle me because I express opinions that don't fit with you and your 'groupthink' chums.-1 -
Excellent. Been trying to come up with a term for that phenomena on CL for ages...'groupthunk', like it.Daggs said:What a ludicrous and desperate retort. There's probably twenty or thirty threads I haven't opened and that's why I haven't commented on them.
I read this one as did you and I expressed my opinion.
You just want to be part of the 'groupthink' that infects this site. You're to scared to have an opinion that doesn't fit.3 -
Wow! 'Leuth' speaks.............
"everyone criticised it" mmm!
And I'm flagging you again for the insult.2 -
Are you in the video, Daggs?
You seem very emotional.1 -
I’ve been Benidorm before and saw stuff like this from their old bill first hand. Their patience is very thin with pissed Brits regardless of any wrong doing from the person on the end of a whacking. I completely understand that it would rub you up the wrong way, and there are certain cases where a baton round the swede is more than justified, but it’s not the job of the police to hand out punishment. You can’t have your government/mayor/council offer cheap booze all day, rely on an economy of merry Brits and then just baton every person you see when they begin to get loud.9

the whole reaction to the "celebrations" at the weekend were a tad ott i thought out of a population of 55 million from what i have seen 1 ambulance, 1 bus shelter, 1 police car and 1 taxi have been damaged - lets not do the media thing of blaming all England fans and calling for bans on drinking, i have no issue with people congregating in the street and singing i think it is is great - dont see the need to damage property myself.
just an example notting hill carnival 28 police officers injured and 300 arrests - do we call this a crime wave festival - of course not.
last season just under 2000 arrests in the english football league do we call for bans for fans in those leagues of course not.
yes bad behavour but enjoy the fucking moment it dont happen to often.
as a side note well done the millwall lads for arranging a collection on behalf of the nhs - but its a collection most clubs do charitable collections - also hate to break it to you but the ambulance has a millwall sticker on it and there is a photo of a "fan" jumping up and down on it wearing millwall shorts and waving a millwall england flag.
didn't know where else to plonk this so apologies if wrong thread.5 -

Spanish ob have always been baton happy. Seen it first hand following England. And I personally don’t justify it any way. They just fucking love whacking British skulls. I’ve watched England play in 23 countries and not one police force comes close to the unjustified violence they dish out time and time again on innocent people.
Yes, some of our fans act like twats some timescale, but no other countries police are so eager to get the battons out in those scenarios and they always, always go for easy targets.
Scum.
That said the Man with the kid on his shoulders. WTF are you doing man. Walk away!!1 -

Yeah, anyone that watches the news can hardly be surprised about Spanish police tactics. It's not just England fans, they enjoy whacking anyone and everyone. Because they can. Take a look at some of the scenes from the Catalan situation.CharltonMadrid said:Spanish police can definitely be heavy handed but it's mainly because the crowd behaviour of the English (as well as other Northern Europeans) when booze is involved is so different from a Spanish night out. The police seem to completely overreact probably because they are not experienced with how English football fans (or big groups on nights out) behave and confuse high spirited chanting with violence and so feel they have to wade in,completely over the top and disproportionately. The history of English fans abroad hasn't helped their reputation though.
The police definitely enjoy dishing out a few blows of the baton without having to worry about the consequence but it's pretty well known that they do this so taunting them then complaining about getting whacked is pretty silly.0 -
