Yes it is. Hope they throw the book at them, a big heavy book.

Very sad indeed, I truly thought all that kind of thing was gone and forgotten, shame on them.

Unfortunately it happens here too, this was a 13 year old girl being thrown out of the MCG after taunting Swans player Adam Goodes by calling him an ape. She phoned him later to apologise. (This was a couple of years ago)




However we don't get the violence before, during and after the game that characterises soccer

Its seems that you can give them fancy strips and all seat stadiums but the cavemen remain cavemen and act accordingly.

The origens of the game were violent and lawless and it seems nothing much has changed.

Cant stand it and luckily OH cant either.

Re: Scum giving Brits (and football) a bad name

Some so-called football "fans" are nothing more than common thugs.
They certainly are a breed apart. And what about the bloke on the news a couple of nights ago, that wanted a ticket for the big match so badly, he offered to sell a kidney even!!!!
Aint right in the head if you ask me.

That lot on the train weren't very bright anyway, because they were all caught on camera.

Why is it only (or mostly) always football that breeds this behaviour? Why do so many thugs go to football?
Do you see brawling drunks at a tennis match, show jumping, swimming, golf or even rugby? NO.

Yes, I've wondered that too, Mups. They're a disgrace.
