Makes you think if it's from outside the UK, is it other nations trying to make England look bad and perhaps try turn players against their country. Just a theory I suppose. Be interesting to know if other national teams can this same issue or is it just swept under the carpet, whilst England do highlight the problem want it to be addressed. 

Maybe or maybe not. But two of the largest aggressive racist twitter accounts are ran by an Indian (think it's gone now) and a bloke of Philippine heritage based in Italy. You wonder if someone is behind them.

It's pretty dull and uninspiring especially before a football match, but I'll stop derailing the thread....

Both bangers. I do love the unironic jauntiness of inno di mameli though.

The thread so far is mainly people saying the players/women's football are crap or whining about commentators so I say carry on
