Time for UEFA to stay calm, remain neutral, and do nothing. What's the life of one Spanish policeman.....? Pfffft - the game's more important.........

Those Russian mobs are ****in psychos
Anybody who has the misfortune to encounter Russians on holiday will not be surprised that their football fans are psychos. Everywhere they go in the world as tourists they make more enemies. Horrible people. I expect to see loads of trouble during the World Cup and I anticipate England fans to be one of their targets.

Nothing like generalizing a whole nation based upon a few nutters! I'm guessing you've never been to Russia, and your ignorance would prevent you from in the future?

Not a few nutters. Have you encountered Russians on holiday? My comment is not based on ignorance.

I love Bilbao fantastic city, and they have a weeks long festival for children that’s amazing for kids. So I find this shocking as everyone is so friendly although fiercely proud of their basque heritage, also surprised Athletichave a bit of history as this is now the second time someone has died in Bilbao on a European night.

Hmmm. Young men (mainly) from the most paranoid nation on earth (Russia) and the largest city from a region that has been in permanent revolution (the Basque country). I am shocked, shocked.

When he went to Russia recently on business, he was shocked to find how aggression and the male bravado so obvious in Putin is so ingrained in their culture. Half the middle age men in Russia are sporting crew cuts or short cropped hair. Nothing wrong with that of course, but there isn't the sprinkling of hipsters and more calm sub cultures you'll see in Western Europe or North America.

This. UEFA/FIFA - bunch of utter tossers too afraid and cowardly to do anything but line
their own pockets.

Russians,awful people,the shite on the sole the Worlds shoe.

Russia has such a large and diverse ethnicity, that is such a sweeping statement, bear in mind those knuckle dragging wanna be hooligans and obnoxious tourists you come across (like we have a great record) seem to be white European/ Eastern European and Scandinavian heritage. Hark back 30/40 years when the NF were causing mayhem and our attitudes to women was far worse than today, they are just playing catch up.

I could think of far worse countries that title belongs to other than Russia.

Strip them of the World Cup. Enough's enough. Who in their right mind would want to go to Moscow and then feel safe?

England has the stadia to host it although it would be a real race against time now with just three and a half months to go.

Damn No, If they did take the world cup away from Russia, I honestly can't think to many countries would come forward and offer to hold it, fearing the repercussions from Putin, that could quickly escalate into a war over football.
