12-Pack to the Winner!!!
Who can tell me what is written on the front of this t-shirt? I will gladly buy you a 12-pack of suds for the answer, or where I can purchase one. I'm not sure what's best - the fact that this guy is wearing an RAF t-shirt during the WC in GERMANY, or the fact that the gestapo-clad policeman looks like Darth Vader. Great collection of hooligan shots at the link listed below. Glad to see the bird in photo #2 still has a hold of her smokes while handcuffed!

Great site Simon. I'll look into it. Remember I found the Roy Keane / Michael Collins "Two Cork Heros shot in the back" t-shirt after a throwaway sentance in the Evening Standard that some Irish supporters were wearing them. Shame we ended up not buying any

The front of the shirt says "There were ten German bombers in the air" - still will look for shirt

Slightly off on the quote. The following from the Irish Independent:
The Germans are so happy that the thousand of England fans who have invaded their country are not fighting that they grin and bare the incessant singing of 'Ten German Bombers' which is recited along the same lines as 'Ten Green Bottles'.
They even have a tee-shirt to accompany it.
On the front the slogan says 'Ten German Bombers flying through the air' and on the back continues 'but the RAF from England shot them down'.
On Saturday night, they sang it in every pub in Frankfurt where they also engaged in kicking footballs up and down a street near the railway station before aiming them at those who peered down from their apartment windows.

So much for the notion that tribal nationalism would disappear with the formation of the EU. When does WWIII begin?

You are preaching to the choir, my friend. The EU is all about one thing: globally orchestrated capitalism (in the name of democracy, mind you). Genetics are genetics, history is history - the "euro" cannot eradicate nationalistic fervor nor the past atrocities of nations. I've visited Germany several times and I will attest to one glaring fact: they are sorry about WWII...yeh, sorry they LOST. The Huns might claim to think otherwise in modern Germany but, deep down inside, they still want to goose-step. The concept of "order" is the core of Germanic philosophy - you can't change that. As I said before, it's all about genetics. No army in the world is going to uproot Serbs from those hills/mountains. No army in the world is going to out-fight Somalis in their villages. I could go on and on (Iraq). The EU is going to create ever increasing hostilities as the brunt of expenditures for services are paid for by England/Ireland while others (Italy) get free rides. Only a matter of time and pressure for the system to collapse. Don't worry, though, some descendant of our monarch (George Bush) will be there to make things even worse for you!
