my mate with this 2 young nephews got attacked (only him) and now his nephews want to go home as they are scared. 2 other mate got attacked in the square on there own.

Now I dont know about you but both are not happy and rightly so. What do you warrant as 'not very serious'

I'm in the eurstar lounge now the police are pulling Everton fans to see if any are banned

see that won't get reported as injuries will it

so although some of us are suggesting that this doesn't sound as bad as at first, some fans will have experienced some very nasty sh!t there, not good, not good at all

stay safe blues

exactly . But attacking innocents and then a bar getting gassed with kids in is 'minor'

I haven't a clue what point, if any, you are trying to make.

A statement issued by the club says that two fans have been treated for "minor injuries".

That is all I have to go on and as far as I am concerned it is a darn sight better than the news he were receiving last night.

Now, as you don't appear to have any more substantial news to update me about injuries other than "only two have been reported", I will await further updates from the club.

In the meantime, enjoy your trip and I hope you have a safe passage to and from the game.

:)
 
Really sorry for what happened. I hope there will not be other issues.
Those people are not Lille fan, I would bet they never go to the stadium. Only people who want to show they are the boss...but only show they are a shame. They are only interested in being "important", they want everybody talking about them, fearing them. Please don't play their game, don't make them happy. The only way to win against them is to show that this game can be a friendly party, that Everton and Lille fans can enjoy together.
Lille fans are not known in France to be dangerous, and I can assure everybody here is happy to meet our english neighbours who have a great culture of football (much more than in France), in order to live a great moment of football together.
Hope you will enjoy your stay in Lille
See you tonight, with a friendly mood !

Given it would be impossible for "our lads" to accurately identify any of the masked culprits and give them a good shoeing, I take it you mean just go out and "lay some street justice" on any French randomer they come across?

Yes, that would be great for the image of our club and our city.

We might have our very own Michael Shields situation.

Maybe even end up with us banned from Europe next season or sommat.

I don't care mate just kill them all. That way you know you've got the culprit.
 

I say we hold a free Brie tasting stand outside Goodison. Any self respecting Frenchman with half a brain cell will take free cheese when its offered, and the deadheads who don't take any will undoubtedly be the ones who attacked our lads, so we deal with them accordingly.
 
Its the policeing thats OTT, gonna be big problems if they keep it up, was hoping they'd take a leaf out of the german bizzies book from a few years ago
