A teenager who planned to copy the Columbine massacre and shoot several students and techers at his school has been arrested in Sweden.
A lawyer for the 16-year-old said the teenager was suspected of conspiracy to commit murder.
He did not comment on reports that the boy planned to blow up his school in Malmo, 382 miles south-west of the capital, Stockholm.
very. one crackpot does not a hell make (or something along those lines), anyway I blame violence on TV and Marylin Manson.Quote:

we havent booked flights from london yet - dont know if we go malmo or copenhagen - sounds like malmo rite ****hole but we are playing them.
copenhagen has the christianos district (i think thats what its called) where we can get out of our heads and shag dirty knocks(for money).how bad lets live a little :D :eek: :D
I think most people are staying in Malmo now since their the team we're playing.Quote:

I spent a few days in Copenhagen a few years back and visited Malmo for a day.
It did seem fairly quiet so if people were staying there for 3 days they might be stuck for things to do. (The museum in the castle will kill an afternoon and you get a great view of the Oresund? bridge from the seashore). I'd say if you're staying in Malmo it might be no harm trying to hook up with local fans who'll be able to show you the best places to go etc.
Copenhagen isn't exactly Las Vegas either but its a much bigger city with more touristy things to do.
Worryingly the best bar I saw in Copenhagen was an Irish bar on one of the main squares in the pedestrian district(Could have been Mulligans but not sure).
Anyway I hope everyone who makes the trip has a ball and makes as much noise as possible on matchday.
Just thought I'd help my fellow EU citizens out with some info about Malmö
Safety: no need to worry. The city is calm, even though idiots exist here just as elseware. I can hardly imagine that they would take on a group of Irish though, since they are cowards as all other idiots.
Nightlife: Naturally it is hard to compete w/ Copenhagen since it is a much smaller city. However pubs DO exist and prices are way better in Malmö. One irish pub can be recommended: Fagans at Grynbodgatan is very good with happy hour(s) between 1500-2000 hours. Guiness=35 sek/pint which is close to 4 euros. Another good place is Pickwick pub close to Gustav Adolfs torg with the same happy hours and prices. Besides these two places there are two major areas: Lilla Torg which is more poshy and expensive annd Möllan offering a more laid back athmosphere(and waaay cheaper!). In general alcohol is expensive and sold in special stores only open mon-fri (1000-1800 hours) and Sat(10-1400 hours). If you have the opportunity bring Danish beer that tastes better and is cheaper. If you're looking for nightclubs, Malmö has the biggest one in Scandinavia called Slagthuset, behind the Central Station.
If you have any questions just ask. And welcome to Malmö!
Cheers!

Andee- we booked the Ibis In Malmo Stadion for our hotel. is it near the stadium and how far is it from the night clubs and pubs?
The fans here are not violent, we're niether Stockholm nor Gothenburg...the best athomsphere is found at Möllvångstorget(Möllan is the common name) where a lot of fans usually hang out before the games.Quote:

Cheers for the wonderful word Malmonians...>>>malmöiter is what we actually do call us...but I know...Swedish is a f****d up language.

21/10/99 ??? Now we´re talking about 2004... What I just read is of course shameful, but quite, quite, QUITE unlikely to ever happen again. Nowadays not much ever happens in terms of violence. From 1999 the supporter group hs gone from perhaps 500 to 6-7000, and violence has not been a part of malmö fans ever(even back in 99´it was probably the work of f***heads) who never cared about football anyways).Quote:

no need to worry about violence in malmö but do expect to pass through a metal detector on the way in to nightclubs.....
dont think there will be many at the match in malmö. portadown played here last year in the uefa cup and only 5,000 turned-up.
Depending on this weekends result Cork could be playing in the Munster Hurling final that Sunday so I'd say we hit an Irish bar to watch that before the City gameQuote:

if you want to see the munster final you'll have to go to copenhagen.
obviously malmo beat the orange *******s from portadown last year but does anybody know by what score?????????/
Portadown 0-2 Malmo
Malmo 4 - 0 Portadown
:eek:
i believe we could get right result at home even tho i lost few bob on changing flights i am glad game re-arranged so we home 1st.i can see it flynny rattling the net in front of the shed.
