There was in ours. A small town in west sussex called East Grinstead. It all started after the match when around 30 french people stood at the top of the town BURNING english flags. My mate and I just sat back in the car listening to slipknot. It was classic.

Literally cops fighting people fighting dogs. We saw one man getting battered by a female cop with a baton.

What about your towns ?

I'd expect the Scots to take the mick out of you. We have a Welsh kid at school. We all get on with him, but he does take some stick. ;c)

None here, I do live in Scotland though.

People where I live are well racist (I'm english) they always say that english people are gay, w8nk3r5, etc - TO MY FACE! (they usually don't say it for long though). They were making fun of me just cuz England lost one game - to the second best team in the world. I'd like to see their faces after Scotland plays them.

They were trying to come up with counters to
"And the Scotland result was?"
A reply:
"So! Scotland have qualified more times!"

Yes, it's the taking part that counts!?

If this carries on there might be a riot here!

If I walk past PC World, and past TRU, coming the opposite direction from Ikea, where does that lead me? I get off the tram at Waddon Marsh, go to a few of the shops and then go back and continue to Reeves Corner. Are there any more shops there, other then the surrouning ones (Argos, Currys, TK Maxx, PC World, Toys R Us, Mothercare, Carphone Warehouse and Sainsbury's)?

I went to Purley Way the morning after a murder, earlier in the year. I never even realised there was a murder until I heard about it that night. During the day, it seems like a normal retail park. I'm guessing at night, you get all the trouble.

Indeed. Burning a flag for that is incredibly stupid in those circumstances, but the frogs must have been absolutely blind drunk. Burning North Korean flags, however, is wholly acceptable. Commie scum.

Thing is, Purely Way is really close to my school (woo!)

Still, it has a pretty decent cinema there. And a huge Ikea, complete with optical illusional towers for some reason.

I don't think it's that bad. The odd murder at Purley Way, sure, but nothing too bad. New Addington's a rough area, though.

Not exactly a riot but there was a fight in the bar across the road from the bar i was in.

One bloke ran from one entrance into the other entrance of the bar followed by the doormen who dragged him out and on to the floor. There was a minor scuffle and then one of the doormen who wasn't working was square-ing up to the bloke then the police came and i got bored so i had another shot!
