had a look around last night and couldn't really find much footagae of actual 'hooligan' style action.
just lots of face offs and some clips of people invading the pitch.
hardly "the worst football violence in 30 years" as the papers put it.

I saw some footage on the news last night. It looked pretty crazy.

the UK has nothing on the rest of the world when it comes to this sort of thing.
a good deal of the people in those clips are in their 40s and shit.
in eastern europe, argentina etc it's a huge phenomenon.

Down in Brazil it's crazy, They are probrably the worst set of fans when it comes to this type of stuff. They won't hesitate to shoot and kill you if
your a rival fan.
