The Hooligan League: Polish Soccer Thuggery At Its Worst

“We will come together for our national cause. We think only of beating the ‘hools’ from Germany first — because we hate them — and the ones from England because they have the reputation of being the best hools, because they invented it. If we beat them we will be considered the best.” – Marek, 29, a father of a year-old child.

“Tell the English fans we are coming to Germany to hunt them down. We will come for them silently and quickly. We hate the Germans and we will fight with them. We admire the English because of their reputation. That’s why we will fight with them. We want to take their reputation as the best fighters.” – A second hooligan who carried a knife with a 5in blade and a rubber hosepipe filled with sand

The Sunday Times of London is reporting that violent Poles armed with knives, axes, and three foot truncheons have established a “hooligan league.” I know it may be hard for you to believe but the hooligan league is not all fun and games. It’s basically a fancy name for mob violence, as crazy Polish fans go out of their way to terrorize and assault unwitting fans from rival countries for five weeks during the World Cup. Amazingly enough – they actually have a chief target. And no, it’s not the Italians, whose fascists and neo-Nazi rowdies are known the world over. It is England… the Hooligans are seeking “pre-arranged fights” with the pride of Brittania because of their reputation as “the best of the worst.” [Allow me a moment to shed a tear out of pride.]

These props are all well and good but one group of thugs has warned that if the English “ignore invitations to fight, they will be attacked anyway.”

Hmm. I wonder where the Polish learned that way of thinking. In light of that, it’s ironic that a group like this is heading IN to Germany, isn’t it? In any case, check out my Wednesday update for SportsbyBrooks where you can catch this little diddy and:

    • That is pretty damn scary and from what I’m reading, the Germans have no plan for it! Maybe you need to rethink your world cup plans, Flashers.

    • Oy! The Brits need to send Vinnie Jones over there to handle some bidness. England 5 – Germany 1!!!
      Seriously though – the thought of Marek, father of a one year old and Grzegorz, former priest wanna-be, sharpening thier shivs to silently stalk England fans in the streets of Frankfurt – that is some f’ed up repugnant shit.

    • Too bad Vinnie’s too busy trying to style for the Hollywood camera. Bloody sell out.

    • That’s completely insane. At least we can be glad we’ll never have the World Cup in the US. Since 80% of these idiots are unemployed, maybe they couldn’t afford to make the trip!

    • … never have the world cup in the US?
      Sigh, does it honestly make me a hardcore US soccer fan to remember 1994?

    • LOL…I think the Polish hools trying to make a name for themselves is quite hilarious. It’s only an excuse for them to make going to the world cup worthwhile cause Lord knows their national team sucks.
      Not only are these guys dense, they also don’t read the news. Eng and Germany are trying very hard to limit the number English hools going to the WC, so the Polish guys would only be beating innocent by-standers to death. At least their fighting skill while come in handy when their fending off gang rape in jail.
      To Matt -It sure does, cause most americans don’t

    • Very true Zoogs. I think WC 1994 was erased from the collective American memory around February 1995, which makes sense because most of the population believes liking soccer is both un-American and strictly for pussies.

    • Now if English fans protect themselves who do you think FIFA will try and throw out of the competition

    • Let’s be honest here … it’s a group of people from POLAND. They’ll probably wind up beating the crap out of a bunch of Australians or something.
      Oh … and they KC Royals fan who “sold” his loyalty is lucky he got more than nickel and a cup of lukewarm backwash. Although, his $270someodd is about half the Royals payroll, so maybe he can send a check to David glASS to help the team improve …

    • Is this the first World Cup for the Polish crazies?

    • No its not the first Word Cup for our team.
      Some of you guys could lay off the racial epithets. Of course there is going to be hell raising, getting across the border is a joke. I don’t believe there will be much fighting with inocent fans, the hooligan league will be organized fights far away from the police and bystanders. I’m sure hardcore England fans will accept this challenge.

    • Awesome blog. Peace out until next time TabathaOster
