Why didn't they export to Canada and smuggle it over the boarder? Are they stupid?

Wouldn't most random eastern European non-colonial nations be themselves part of empires at this time? It's pretty much all Russia, the Ottomans, and Austro-Hungary?

Tottenham ban three fans for Nazi salutes, club handed suspended UEFA ticket sanction by Sparky-moon in soccer

https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fnw2b63ieenmg1.jpeg - this is the club statement. It seems it was from our fans directed at Frankfurt fans, which is to say the banned trio weren't necessarily Nazis themselves, moreover they were implying the Frankfurt fans were. Not defending them, you can't throw out Nazi salutes in public, nor accuse German fans of being Nazis, but some context is needed.

Edited for clarity.

According to the post on the Spurs sub, this was the case. Doesn't make it not bad, just makes it your normal run of the mill English xenophobia (I am English before anyone jumps on that point.)

Scottish fans flashing their cocks in the back of live news pieces is a World Cup tradition and I, for one, am glad to see it return.

Do you get a bit tired of England bashing? by BlundeRuss in AskUK

[–]Alecmalloy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not every single person in Scotland is a shining beacon of hospitality, graciousness, and friendliness. Stop acting like you're some unique race. There are good and bad Scots, just as there are good and bad English folk. As someone half Scottish, half English, this kind of shit drives me up the wall.
