    I was there last night. Played against Seven Acre & Sidcup on TTFC training pitch over the back. Heard it all kicking off. Spoke to a few of the TTFC backroom staff who said a few faces went down to watch the game and around 100 Polish turned up with baseball bats etc, tried to get into the game but the OB had a tip-off. Then there was plenty of pavement dancing but not much else.

    The lot that turned up outside the ground were shouting racist chants towards black players and then started smashing up cars.

    I know Henners, if only people knew how many Polish fought and died for us. They took Monte Cassino for heavens sake, after us and the Yanks had tried for 4 months, and helped save our arses in the Battle of Britain. A brave nation and great soldiers and airmen.
    Not forgetting that they were fighting the Nazis in 1939

    77 years too late. If only they had supported the Czechs instead of Hitler on the Munich agreement, the world may have been very different.

    But as pointed out by Greenie, they were some of the best pilots in the RAF and essential to code breaking efforts.

    yes, often glossed over how much they had done to break Engima before Turing et al http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-28167071

    Incidentally read recently that the Germans broke British navel codes during WWII

    The brave buggers were charging Hitler's tanks on horseback FFS when the invasion happened. And the Polish Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto were brave buggers too.
    Massive respect.

    It's Clapton fans storming the ground isn't it, with locals protecting it from within?

    "Eyewitnesses claim a group of around 50 people were waiting for Clapton fans to arrive before they stormed the grounds armed with bats, batons and flares."

    Sounds like a bunch of numpties lying in wait for Clapton fans to me.
