I was quite surprised, I always thought of Spanish fans to be of the Nordic variety as opposed to Lazio ultras.

Having said that, racism was also dominant in English football until the comprehensive and effective anti-racism movement in the 90s. I think the rest of the leagues (apart from the French and German) are behind in that regard.

Agreed 100%.

On a completly unrelated topic, Screw England

Maybe, but the punishments are harsh and media response is doused with venom. Contrast that to the media in countries like Greece and Italy and racism almost goes unnoticed. Almost accepted as part of a "boys will be boys" culture.

I'm not trying to downplay the racism in the Bernabeau today, but I will say that I don't think alot of the jeering towards the english players was as much towards the black players as it was to any english player in general. Alot of the people(the non ultras in the stadium) were really fed up with the tackles the Spanish players were recieving. Rooney was getting the same kind of booing like A.Cole was for example, and in fact A.Cole never got monkey noises made at him until his incident with Joaquin.

There were at the most 5,000 ultras in the stadium and alot of them disgrace Real game in game out, but the other 70,000 were taking it out on everyone in a white shirt.

This is nothing but England trying to take the focus off them being quite shit at the moment. I mean those hooves can't even beat Austria.
