Trouble in Leipzig

It looks like Spanish ultras trying to cause trouble, but Palace held their own and the police were quickly on scene to chase the Spanish away.

Stay safe everyone. I am on my way in the morning.
 
We were at the pub when this started. From what we can work out the attackers were the Rayo ultras, all in black, there were some Palace with right wing flags and it was these two groups, did not see anyone hurt thankfully, all day very goid atmosphere with the real fans mixing very well. The group in black were kettled and being addressed by police in Spanish

Yeah was walking to the pub and they were 200ms behind us all in black. Made it to the pub 5 mins later there coming at us. There was a mix of families at the pub aswell. Was terrible to see. But as a fan group we didn’t start it. The police swiped in quickly. Then we went further up then say 10 of them tryed it again and got run out. Rumours of it was Rayo or Leipzig.

You okay Jack?
 
Also just about to set off, heading for the Park & Ride Leipziger Messe and will head to the official zone. Sad to see the headlines on the news (German TV) reporing violence between groups of fans. I suppose if it escalates the winners will be banned from Europe with the reason of setting an example. Nothing would surprise me with UEFA. COYP!!
 
You just know UEFA are rubbing their hands, already fabricating reports and new rules in order to ban Palace from Europe next season.
Hope all Palace fans don't let the idiots ruin their night
 
Pre organised? Gang of 60 palace and two arrested and sent home Probably same ones who arrange meet ups at Burnley Fulham Ipswich etc and some of the smaller clubs but stay away from Leeds Newcastle manc land Pretty sad little bunch and just hope it doesn’t ruin the experience for true fans Reminds me of cass pennant film when he was selecting boys to go up north for a ruck and little lad was hoping to go but was told “sorry son F off to palace “
 
Adrian Durham was saying on TalkSport that it was local Leipzig ultras (he drove past them as they were congregating outside the train station), and they'd come to fight English fans. Appreciate that some people on the ground are saying they were Spanish so maybe there's more than one group looking for trouble
 
Disappointed we were only able to send 60 troublemakers. I thought our fanbase had a much higher yield of ne'er-do-wells. Perhaps they don't count sex pests or pot smokers?
i sometimes drive in the bus lane - especially to get past feckers who are reading their mobile phone and leaving a gap in front of themselves - i undertake them, i thought that was a common Palace crime ?
And when i get a phone-fella driving behind me, i always construe it that i race off at an amber light and leave the fecker looking stupid & trapped in the rear mirror.
 
I wondered what it would be.

Hoolies. How passe.
The Houlihan family ( O'houlighan in irish Gaelic )......... well known in the Victorian East End of London. A big family of recidivist petty criminals. So pretty soon the coppers started saying 'i arrested a Houlighan' to refer to any general low level scrote.
Its perhaps ironic that the European country with the lowest level of club football or general interest in attending local football matches ( us preferring Hurling & Gaelic football ) ....that that country should give us the name for Football Hooligans.
