The Lansdowne Road football riot occurred during a friendly football match between the Republic of Ireland and England in Lansdowne Road Stadium in Dublin, Ireland on 15 February 1995. This video is taken from a vhs tape of the incident as it happened live on Sky.
In fairness to the English commentators they weren't biased at all. Told it as it was.
sure what else could they say, gaslighting wasnt a thing back then lol well not really -
@@JonathanMullan25 the term gaslighting stems from a 1944 movie
@@joelmcmordie7348 really? wow, didnt know that. i learned something today, thanks
Nah he's talking bollocks saying it wasn't expected. I only tuned in as I expected something to kick off.
@paidistapleton6208 They persisted in attributing the misbehaviour to "a few" who were ruining things for everybody else. But the scenes we witnessed were of a magnitude and order far beyond that scope. The England fans who took part in the riot numbered in the hundreds, possibly even thousands.
My uncle was at this match, he was sat right next to the English fans and watched all of the chaos happen

I was there as a 16 year old. In the school boy section of south terrace - the overcrowding in there was something!
There was a lot police and stadium staff took cash in hand that night , no doubt , that was never mentioned somehow 🤔
Oh well that makes the RIOTING understandable. Stop making excuses. @@stephengalley9305
I remember at the time that this was more than half-expected and had been talked about notably by the press and pundits in the run up to the match, with the notion being that the powers that be were seemingly hoping it wouldnt happen. Whilst mainly surrounding club football, the 10 or so years leading up to this were absolutely disgraceful for English football.
In hindsight, authorities (law and football ones) never really took a firm enough stand and when you think about it, its a surprise and maybe just pure luck that more people didnt get killed or seriously hurt over the years.
Fair play to Martin Tyler.....
The same day Gerard White disappeard Cahore , Co. Wexford, nevermore to be seen again 🌻
They say he jumped off the pier....
Ye anyone know what that is all abt?
Surely the authorities knew this would happen 100%.
100% They knew. They had excellent intelligence back then.
Wouldn't have happened if it was a rugby union international between the 2 nations.
Any other sport tbf
Disappointing incident. Hopefully some of those involved have matured since
Ireland had just scored and had gone 1-0 up .. Combat 18 were there chanting racist abuse .. I vividly remember Paul Ince standing on the side of the pitch asking “Why?” as he pleaded for calm .. that afternoon and late into the evening Dubliners & indeed others from Ireland 🇮🇪 in the city that day inflicted such revenge bearings on many of the troublemakers.. the streets of Dublin ran amok that night ..

They got a Garda escort back to their boats . Luckily these fighting aged men didn't claim asylum and only did damage for one night. We were purely Irish those days. Things were better if I remember correctly.

@@matthewdoyle3877 Well spotted.
Was selling the programmes that night with me 2 sister and a few mates we had the luck of being located where all the English fans entered 98% them where grand even the skinheads weren't to bad to deal with took n gave a bit off banter had a few coins thrown at me we where only 14
i was at pitch when we got pelted with everything a grand father and his grandson i got onto the pitch i was wearing my england rugby shirt if those fans behind the goal had not burnt our flag nothing would have happened
Unfortunately the minority have the biggest spotlight on them, and also not fair on the good fans who travelled to be branded thugs. I've gone over to England for games and never had any issues with anyone when over there. And it's a shame that, even despite hie long ago this was, it's still brought up
"The Gard-ii" 🤣
Should of never happened any agro in Dublin in the next game they won't even get in cause this place is gone mad and only looking for trouble and that be perfect excuse so they won't get home Alive. I'm sure they be well behaved times have changed but Dublin dangerous place.

What idiots put them in close to each other,and glad the English took advantage of the high ground
Being chanted you'll never beat the irish in the city that crumbled their empire 😂
What i saw in this video alot of police was leading green shirts away ..
Weren't that hard against the Russians 😢😮😅😅

Are hooligans get banned from travelling 😂
The day the english showed the world their true colours.
I disagree
Omagh was the place that you showed the world yours. That and your sympathy for hitler.
If the Gardi was in control,why were these troublemakers allowed to takeover the upper tier of the stand…?
They had tickets for those seats. Unless you’re suggesting the guards should’ve had some sort of “Minority Report” system to predict the future, I’m not sure what they were supposed to do.
This fixture was doomed from the start , England fans alongside rangers loyalists from Belfast , rumours of Garda taking backhanders for tickets ??
@@Dreynonice Phillip K Dick reference
Yeah...don't get how the away fans weren't put at one end of the ground away from de green army...we'll never really know will we...?!
The Guards (Irish Police) kept the English fans in the stand until the ground was almost cleared. They then went in and beat the crap out of them...
No camera phones to worry about then. But the Irish press got some of it on film. They also got footage of some of the walking wounded being escorted to the ferry in Dun Laoghaire.
Even though it was a minority bit unfair to punish everyone isn’t it.
@@pow474 They only kept in the Tools in the top stand. The 'normals' were let go along with the Irish.

There is still a sickness in and amongst the uneducated English, and its down to the education they get at school. Fortunately the kids of today are taught differently but i grew up with all the chat about how the sun never sets on the British Empire and all that crap. Thankfully the generations of English feeling a breed apart is passing and making way for common sense
Unless you were born in the 1920s we never had an Empire when you were growing up 😂, not to mention the fact it was driven almost exclusively by the upper class. Tit 😂
Ireland scored and a small hand full of Irish supporters started chanting towards some English fans sitting in the lower section, one drunken England fan tried to cross over for a fight and got beaten back by two Irish supporters one of them was fairly old.
England fugs from the upper tier saw the England fan getting beaten back, and that lit the fuse and so began the missiles.
It wasn't so much a planned attack just because England was losing, i mean it wasn't exactly a lead England couldn't of came back from, although many England fugs had travelled over knowing there could be a potential fight the goal still wasn't really the spark that started it,
the small petty fight in the lower section that no one ever mentions was the starting pistol.
It was just too many fugs in one spot waiting for that spark, and that spark came early.
England fugs? 😅
Thugs, ffs🙄

I was there with the EBF of Shrewsbury. Tell you WHY the trouble started. After the Republic scored their goal. After celebrating a little. The Irish started throwing bottles in a Small section of England fans Where I was . Bottom tier of the west Stand. . Wasn’t having that So we pointed where And met them in the Tunnels below. Got into them and chased them back up and across the pitch. Now that is the Truth. So sod you Ireland. Shouldn’t have done it. And as they say in England 🏴 EBF never die We just simply multiply XkissX 2ya England 🏴 and Ireland 🇮🇪 . Till We meet again YEAH x

It could have been way worse to be honest - this match should have never been played , 10 years too early
Why on earth were they put up on the top tier where they could fire allsorts of shit down.....madness
Because the FAI made the mistake of treating them like normal humans.

@@DavidJones-wx4im but what if the Dutch, Italy or Germany are playing England like in the European Cup Final at Wembley.. or did you support Italy that day lol ... yeah I believe ya ... funny how many fans say "I don't even watch England games" then the world cup is on and the pubs etc are full with record amounts of TV viewing figures 😂
Absolutely shocking-been an England fan all my life and this was disgraceful!!!
Fair play
They've been right wing morons for

Ah there's fool's everywhere but hey u come across sound, and anyways them people fighting at the football are not brave enough to go make a name for themselves so they get drunk and start fights at football ,, the people who were fighting were in Mount Joy prison the next day and over one thousand Irish fans shouting (were going to kill ye's ) banging the bars the place sounded like a war , the British knew then it was a stupid mistake to do what they did, u see I think if u think your brave u should be brave in the face of danger not only when u have the upper hand, but the guys who started the fighting were scared and Cowley , but there's always good people like yourself .

In 1982 my Dad took by brother, who was about 14 at the time, to England versus N. Ireland at Wembley. They said all hell let loose and people pulled scaffolding poles from out under their jackets. Some screwed them together and used them as long jousts ramming them into crowds trying to get away.
I was there with my dad in the stand opposite and I was 9 years old

The guards gave them thugs some hiding absolutely not one fcuk did they give good on them.
They should have brought the dopes out to some of the rougher estates in tallaght or wherever " have fun boys , see how fucking hard yous are then"
Didn't show what happened afterwards. They were kept in that section until the stadium was nearly cleared.
Then there was a batton charge. Lots of sore and injured English fans were beaten badly, some complained about harsh police treatment.
Great
Aww poor babies
True...that's more what I remember about that...I thought the police were way too heavy handed and some were filmed unleashing severe blows to probably ordinary fans who were just in the wrong place at the time...I remember one guy having been hit on the head with a baton and obviously in some trouble holding his head and being helped by people in the crowd...shame really...it was not a good day for football
Excellent! ❤
The english fans threw parts of benches off the balcony onto the lower stands hitting people. They left far right messages scattered round the place and goaded irish people into fights while they were here. English fans got what they had coming
Thugs no harm they got cleared home on the ferry,plus anti Northern Ireland
In English, please.
That game was meant to be audition for Le Tissier....he never got another chance.
What about David Kelly? His goal never stood
Now he’s a conspiracy guy
He played again for England...97 against Italy

Shame on England IRELAND 1.IRELAND WON.😂
Don't think anybody won.
I remember watching this live. Disgusting behaviour from the England supporters. And I'm English. I'm sure it came out that alot of them were actually 'businessmen'.
I remember it live also it was surreal. And it was also the first time I ever heard the term neo nazi used. I was 15 at the time and never thought you would have English saluting Hitler. And most of us know over here that this crowd didn't speak for all England fans.
The English fans are chanting 'Dirty Fenian Bastards' at the start of this clip, glad they all got the Bronx Tale 'so now yous cant leave' treatment afterwards.
Oh. You're so tough

Their not proper footballs fans tbf
They should have been kicked out of euro 96
England? We were the hosts.
Lucky we weren't but wouldn't have been a bad thing anyway.
As an England regular of a lot of years being part of a group of 20 or so we got to know a lot of England supporters down the years and most noticeable during this trip was how we did not know lots of so called English supporters here. Before the game it was odd as in not like a usual away trip. We never saw so many travelling English police for starters and there was lots of banter flying around about about political stuff but we did not witness any. A really odd experience which we saw in Sweden at Euro 92 as well as in lots of people we did not recognise. Certainly very poor of the media commentators labeling everyone with out knowing the facts though.
I’m Irish and was 11 when this happened. It was found afterwards that there was a large contingent that weren’t football fans from England. You are right about the political rhetoric, even being that young, I was already very aware of sectarian and political issues on the island as a whole. I lived in Manchester as an adult years later and after that, this makes even less sense. The English couldn’t care less about Northern Ireland. My only guess is that there was tension over IRA attacks on mainland Britain.
@@johnjordan6736 Ireland played at Wembley a couple of years later, and to be honest it was a horrible atmosphere. No mass fighting as far as I know, to be honest I would have actively avoided it it if I could see it, but it still felt awful. Hopefuly those days are gone.

@@paulc2130it's the English that have a violent chip on their shoulders, we've all moved on, I'm not saying all English, mostly the brain dead knuckle daggers that follow English premier league teams. Irish and English on a general level get on well, there's cultural and family links in both nations, my cousin is married to an English lady, with kids, they're very happy together.
England fans. We know this isnt all of yous. Sure all ireland fans arent innocent either. No fanbase is. Please dont think we hate yous all. Only these short few who go around marching and yelling “ no surrender! 🤡🤡” please feel welcome to come to Ireland and as long as you are respectful you should be welcomed and treated with respected yourself.
Fair play, some tools bring a beating on themselves and I think most decent supporters have no issues with that. No problems with Irish boys I have met at the football, nor Germans, nor Italians, Nor Dutch nor any number of supporters from other nations,. It is almost as if you treat people with respect it generally comes back to you.
Love it

The people of Ireland did not deserve this. This summed up English football fans in a nutshell bwck then. Embarrassing and disgraceful. Kudos to Richard Keys and Martin Tyler along with the rest of the Sky Sports team back then for the way they handled this.
It's pleasant to hear a decent English person call it out for what it was, insane thuggery, and so pointless!
Thankfully the culture of England fans has changed a lot since then.
A lot of other European countries, especially eastern, are far far worse now and look to perpetuate violence against meek and mild middle class English fans due to their old reputation.
Less violent, still mostly despicable behaviour/language regularly at home or abroad..
