The bloke on the Guardian MBM is pretty much in tears at this stage. But deep-down, I reckons he's loving it.

Maybe it's a Rodney Dangerfield fan club?
They've let someone in carrying the horn of Gondor, a few jumpers would be easy.
When did Bulgaria become non-league standard?
I reckon that over-all their hue is darker than hours. Mental fuckers.
Barry Glendenning's take on the evening has been a interesting Twitter read. I think he may have had a few shandies.
It is all a bit holier than thou when they're just as bad normally though. The Bulgarians need to be turfed out but a lot of these horror merchants could look a bit closer to home too.
Yeah, it's so ridiculous.
"We don't want to be talking about this . . ."
Course not. So much guttedness that the game wasn't called off.
Then again, the idea that this FARE bunch had 25 reports of racist abuse in England this year against 3 in Bulgaria makes you wonder if anyone involved in any level of this has any sense whatsoever. Some non-league game (Dover?) has been getting referenced a lot in that regard recently.
Presumably there are FARE observers/twitter informers scrutinising that level of the game in all countries. Or not.
Of course Bulgaria has far more acts of racism per capita than England
I dont know why they don't hold hands, walk off and refuse to play if its that bad.
As English people we should by now be used to the idea that the rest of the world is properly bitter about us.
Barney Ronay had a quality piece the other day in which he compared racial abuse aimed at black England players to England fans singing 'Ten German Bombers', and suggested, with his tongue planted nowhere near deeply enough in his cheek, that the England side would be equally justified in walking off the pitch should that song be heard as they would be upon hearing monkey noises.
I was putting together a trvia fo Marcos Rashford and his goals per game ratio in the prem league since i saw a stat that Niklas Bendtner had a similar record in the league. Below, are just a few other players who have similar goals in the league (around 30) and goals per game (0.25)
Marcus Rashford
Sylvain Wiltord
Nikica Jelavic
Juninho Paulista
Hamilton Ricard
Henri Camara
Rickie Lambert
Djibril Cisse
Nicklas Bendtner
Mikael Forssell
Jay Rodriguez
Peter Ndlovu
Salomón Rondón
My main memory of Hamilton Ricard (other than the dynamic duo of him and Brian Deane smashing us about years ago) is him attempting an absolutely dreadful shot from kickoff.
Also when I Googled "ricard vs manchester united' this is what came up:

Another mega signing for Woowar.
Vietnam take the lead in Indonesia!!!!!
This isn't to say he won't ever be any good, but whatever the reasons, Rashford's goalscoring record is properly crap.
He is playing for a tremendously average side.
Indonesia 0-3 Vietnam.
20 minutes left.
😎
The worrying thing about Rashford is that even though his end product has always been a bit ropey he usually looked, whether starting or as a sub, like he had a chance of making something happen but even that's fading.
Vietnam won 3-1. Unfortunately, Thailand somehow best UAE at home, which isn't a great result for Vietnam.
Elsewhere, Infantino and 0 fans watched the Korea's draw 0-0 in Pyongyang, China continued to be rubbish and drew 0-0 away to Philippines. Cambodia, coming off a 14-0 loss to Iran fared slightly better, going down 0-4 to Iraq. Africa's Herve Renard, now in charge of the Saudi's, currently 0-0 away to mighty Palestine.
Australia battered Taiwan 1-7, India 0-0 Bangladesh having just kicked off. Japan dispatched of Tajikistan 0-3.
Nobody was making Nazi salutes in Prague you bitter mong
Bloody third world countries and their pitches.
What's going on with Finland having a cinema screen at one end of the ground alternating between showing the game and distracting, massive adverts?
You weren't engaging in whataboutery when Lukaku got abused in Italy, were you? So why now? Because there's a deep visceral bitterness in many countries about the English ever being the good guys. Sometimes we are, sometimes we're not. We all need to get over ourselves - us about 80 year old world wars, and you about that.
Oh lovely, the Finnish IMAX screen is showing tweets too.
Not well enough apparently. Very very odd.
Our Olympic stadium is being renovated so all games have been moved to other stadiums.
Jesus, Mick Mc has just confirmed that he’s playing a back 3 with Enda Stevens as one of the 3 and James McClean as left wing back.
Playing wing backs and Doherty on the bench
How come a 30,000 seater stadium has so many empty seats? Are the Swiss not normally fairly well supported?
De Gea injured, pile the Man Utd misery on please
That’s some miss from Embolo.
Coleman is having his worst match in a long time and is a red card waiting to happen. Doherty would be absolutely ideal right now.
EDIT: Didn’t think that’s how the red would come.

Well that was a lot of effort for something underwhelming.
We’re going to the Euros 😎
You're also going to Stratford
Also that stuff about best fans in the world. They’d all been drinking since about 2 and were mostly wankers. One of the eight blokes called Gerry I was around kept telling any woman within 5m of him that they ‘were fecking gorgeous do you want some?’
Most of them, like most Irish people, are absolute wankers.
Most people are wankers. I now fully understand why some people like animals so much because they seem to be much better than people.
But the craic!
All people are wankers. There's levels of wankdom, but we're all cunts about something.
