The Sun newspaper
Today has some interesting stories on the home page of its website (and presumably in the print edition too)"SWISS BANKER apologises to Sven" (you can guess that one)
"REF cheated with blonde" (that one's not hard either)
"TIME is up for clocks -- the SUN urges readers to boycott all things Swiss"
"The SUN SAYS - Idiot Swiss Ref"
Their voxpop box adds a 29yr old moron asking, “Why a Swiss ref? Surely there were referees from countries that we hadn’t beaten.”
In other news, 'WE feared mob would kill' we learn more details on yesterday's horrifying attack by 'fans' on a pub merely because it contained Portuese nationals.
"TERRIFIED Portuguese soccer fans told yesterday of their fear as a pub was besieged by a hate-filled mob of 300 hooligans.
Sixty people, including women and children, barricaded themselves inside the Red Lion pub in Thetford, Norfolk as violence flared within minutes of England’s defeat.
The pub was bombarded with bricks, rocks and bottles and several Portuguese had their faces and hands cut by flying glass.
Fifteen people had been arrested yesterday. One Portuguese said: “We thought we were going to be killed.”
One of the pub’s Portuguese managers, Leonel Cunca, 38, added: “What happened was terrible — but we are not going to go away because of it.”"
