We have the same here with bingo halls rival bingo halls will travel far a wide for a good scrap only weapons allowed are dobbers! My nan recently got done dirty with a sharpie instead carer thought she has measles for a week. Its just how they roll never go bingo alone !

@@awaydaysfootball Great video Ellis. Krakow is beautiful isn’t it especially the main square. Just got back from there and Warsaw. See legia Warsaw play. That was some epic crazy atmosphere too

​@@callumkent7155yes it escaped bombing in ww2 so it has beautiful medieval features that are sadly missing across a lot of eastern Europe now

Hahahahahahahaha

I was laughing so hard when he did that, I nearly dropped my beer that I was holding with one hand :)

I went a few weeks ago, and I completely agree. Very lovely city

I went to Krakow this summer it was lovely, I go to Warsaw every year as my wife comes from a town 10 miles outside of Warsaw. Lovely country lovely people

It's Krakow and Wisla, just a little PSA. You were very well advised by the shopkeeper, a Wisla or Cracovia jersey in Krakow is asking for trouble. If someone asks you who you support you say neutral or I don't watch football. The hooligan groups are the worst part of one of the best cities in the world.

Well that is good to hear, I remember visiting family in Nowa Huta and being advised not to wear gear. @@M3rl1n177

I had to check the comments to see did anyone think the same as me😂

do you not think that is a bit ridiculous that you risk being attacked over an item of clothing?

@@squareeyes9540 It is i don't deny it, i don't even support any polish clubs, but that's unfortunetlly how it is in some parts of the city, only good think is that it was far worse in the 90s and 2000s

No comment

As soon as I saw Ed in his jackets I said, "Oh shit, its Jimmy Savile"

my girlfriend is Polish and I went with her brother earlier this year to watch Widzew vs Lech Poznan, just looking over at the away fans and they're all dressed in black all wearing masks is rather intimidating.. ultras in Poland are completely different to any others.. was in the centre of the Widzew flares and it was one of the best football experiences ive ever had!

Weź chlopie nie ośmieszaj się co ty piszesz korona, Jagiellonia to pionki w polskiej chuligance Zejdz na ziemię chlopie.

Great idea for videos moving forward I think.

@@BALHAM69 yep:))

@@serban9810 a very long question from me in England and perhaps tell Ellis too as he is from England What is the difference between steaua bucuresti and fcsb? Sounds very difficult A lot of conflict it seems correct? Thank you for reply

@@BALHAM69 yeah it is very difficult. to keep it short, Steaua Bucuresti is the army's club and it is the only one who owns all the rights to the Steaua brand and name. FCSB is Gigi Becali's team and they lost all the rights to use the Steaua name in court. He's the one who supposedly bought Steaua from the army, but the courts are saying he did it illegally and so they stripped his club of the name after the army sued him. The army re-founded the football team and now Steaua is theirs playing in the 2nd division. Very complicated but basically, legally Steaua is CSA Steaua(army's club) and FCSB is a fake. But the story is waay longer than that, I can tell it to you if you want but it's gonna take a bit:) Oh and also, for Ellis' knowledge, most ultras went with Steaua but casual fans and new sort-of-ultras stayed with FCSB.

@@serban9810 Haha, yeah, I thought that is the National Arena too but I didn’t know we had that bad a reputation even with all the complaints about football ultras lol. I mean, Peluza Nord (North Stand, FCSB s ultras) used to be at the old Steaua s matches just as much as Peluza Sud (South Stand, the ones that stuck with CSA Steaua) so I dont think it is fair to call them sort of ultras. Hell, they were even on break for a while when the whole argument started and didnt go to either team s matches for a while, partly because their leader was in jail at the time. Other things to note are that CSA Steaua had to start from scratch all the way from the 4th tier in 2017, they are now in the 2nd tier but unable to promote because of the same law that forced Steaua to be privatised in the first place (state owned clubs are technically not allowed to play in the first tier. I say technically because loads of clubs get state funding anyway via sponsorships etc.), which is even more of an issue as neither Steaua was ever actually relegated on the field and it would be the only Romanian club to hold that distinction. Right now they are actually in bad form too and are 8th in the second tier but the upcoming match against Rapid will be in the group stage of the cup (we have a new dumb cup format where teams are drawn into groups of 6 but each only plays 3 games, the top 2 qualify). Another fun fact is that the history is actually split off 3 ways as of right now as Becali didn’t buy the team directly off of the army but was initially a nonprofit association that was headed by someone else (Viorel Paunescu) with Becali initially having a minority stake before he took majority control and changed the organisational form to a joint stock company so the trophies won until 1998 belong to the army, the trophies from 1998-2003 belong to the now long dead association and the trophies since 2003 belong to the new FCSB. It is a complete mess as he said. On the topic of fans I want to make it clear just how huge the numbers difference actually is, CSA Steaua has had an average of 1200 fans while FCSB has had an average of 15k this season so far. But those 1200 are just ultras so they can definitely do choreographies and stuff like that, plus the fact that there will be way more fans at that game as it is a derby after all. I mean, 5k is just the official number of away Rapid fans allowed. There will probably be more Rapid fans than CSA ones at the game tbh. The former players meanwhile are pretty much split according the the period they played in (the legends that won the CL back in 1986 when Romania was still communist and the army owned the club support CSA, though even they have been frustrated by the lack of ability to promote lately, the players that played in the Becali period mostly support FCSB). Notable exceptions are Duckadam (you might know him as the only keeper to save 4 penalties in a row and he did it in a CL final to win the match for his team) who supports FCSB and even worked for them for a while, meanwhile on the other side Adi Popa (RW that played for FCSB for 5 years between 2012-2017 during which he was a part of the team that won 3 league titles in a row, that made it to the EL RO16 knocking out Ajax and beating European champions Chelsea in the first leg before succumbing to a 3-2 defeat, that had CL participations etc) has played for and is now supporting CSA Steaua as the real Steaua. So, yeah, a real mess. The annoying part is that it isn’t even the only case of split identity (see CSU Craiova vs FCU Craiova which is the only other one where fans are actually split but even Dinamo has 3 teams called that and Rapid had to fight off a court case from a couple of fans that made a team called ACS Rapid Frumosii Nebuni Ai Giulestiului (“ACS Rapid The Beautiful Insane People of Giulesti”) and claimed that is the rightful phoenix club of Rapid following their bankruptcy, the current first division Rapid won that case as they had bought the history of the old Rapid on auction) but it is the most spoken about, as a FCSB fan I wish all of them would just stop and I think that is the position of pretty much all of us in the end

Hahahahahahahaa
