    and why the menacing fascist imagery on the flags?

    they could literally have chosen any images they wanted - including people of different races

    yes as the article implies, they're currently a bunch of immature tossers who woudld no more beat you up than walk across the road when a red man is showing, but still a huge blaze can be started with a single match...

    Oh my you’re actually serious?


    If you were being more slippery slope you’d be a steep vertical drop


    Ultras exist all throughout football and they use imagery to invoke a sense of fear.


    They are hardly the newest chapter of Storm front or Combat 18 are they?


    The nearest thing we have to extremist supporters was when Bin Laden used to rock up to Highbury in his early twenties (which is actually quite ballsy…considering a lot of our supporters then probably would have wanted to bash someone for having brown skin…different times alas)


    I think I made this point before that many lefties tend to look for fascism in the wrong place. On the surface you still have the far right groups of course - The EDL, Britain First but they really do have a diminished impact on our national conversation relative to the other more latent threat.

    so a young Asian woman who turns a corner to be suddenly confronted by a bunch of young men, some of whom cover their faces, and waving menacing flags, can feel perfectly safe and comfortable?

    you need to get out of your armchair and walk the city streets once in a while

    Again as I say slippery slope argument

    Plus how comfortable would a white woman feel with a bunch of Asian thugs not showing their faces and waving flags and making menacing slogans

    What factually has been more likely to occur?

    Going back to Anti Semitism, when Jews get attacked physically or verbally it’s more often than not the assailant is Muslim who will justify their behaviour with some half baked statement over Palestinian rights.

    In cities in this country, it’s black and Asian men women of whatever colour tend to fear

    We’ve created this ghettoisation effect in the name of diversity and multiculturalism rather than make the effort to integrate

    In a proportional sense that kind of thing concerns me far more than a couple of skin heads who will have their back sides handed to them when they come up against any proper football gangs

    no doubt when Hitler's brownshirts hit the streets they said the same thing

    "just a few kids messing about, no problem..."

    You’re not helping combat my slippery slope contention by bringing Godwin’s Law into play you know?

    Check this out - apparently this is at London Colney yesterday morning - Arteta totally blanks Trossard when shaking hands with everyone else at the training ground

    perhaps Trossard had the temerity to ask why he isn't one of the Chosen Ones

    ok, i'll try a third time - is no one interested in our manager blatantly ignoring one of our players at the training ground - a guy we only signed in January and that many of us would like to see get more game time?

    I think this is HCZian levels of reading too much into something
