English football hooligans + alcohol = trouble
I guess I have thought this for some time now, but you're all just a bunch of hooligans aren't you? I'm referring of course to English football, and in some cases the rugby crowd. Yes okay, I know that is a bit of a sweeping statement and it's only my opinion, but there are just too many bad apples in the cart as far as I can see! These hooligans just can't handle it when their team looses a game and they become violent.
Saturday evenings in this country can be a complete nightmare after a big football match. The volatile mixture of an aggressive male dominated sport and alcohol can often make the atmosphere very unpleasant in some town centres. I've witnessed it on numerous occasions whilst out at the weekend, supposedly enjoying a quiet evening with friends. If there's not a fight kicking off in a pub somewhere, then it will probably be in the street outside.
Why do we have to endure this kind of behaviour all over the country every time there's a football or rugby match on? Also, why is it particularly these two games that cause all the trouble? I haven't heard of a rowdy bunch of cricket supporters or golf fanatics tearing up the town centre in a drunken rampage. I wonder if it doesn't stem back to some sort primeval urge. After all, far from resembling a beautiful game, a football does kind of remind me of a pack of animals hunting down their quarry.
I don't suppose the antics of the players on and off the pitch help matters much either. They are paid enough, so one would have thought that they could afford to learn some manners and respect for other human beings. We won't mention spitting on the pitch at this point. It's disgusting, but I kind of understand why they have to do it. I just wish they wouldn't do it so frequently, and I wish the camera man wouldn't always get that particular shot.
Another thing that I think it is worth pointing out, is the fact that football violence in the news is quite often linked to English fans in particular. The headlines always refer to "English yobs" and how they have caused yet more trouble abroad whilst supposedly supporting their national team. You rarely ever hear any mention of Scottish or Welsh fans causing a ruckus do you?

The old saying is so true:
Rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen and football is a gentlemans game played by thugs.

Yes this kind of loutish behavior realy is a embarasment to society, its high time somebody in this shambles of a goverment stood up and said thats it a return of the Birch then see what happens.
There would be second thoughts about trashing some pub or beating up some innocent person if they new what that felt like.
Comming back to reality of course this will never happen because in the eyes of the Do gooding Politicly Correct Human Rights brigade this is barbarick.
If we cant see the return of some sort of efective detterent suppose they could always be tyed up with electrical flex and thrown down the nearest dissused mineshaft under cover of darkness.

I guess that makes me your dream guy does it ?
Only in your dreams have you ever punched anyone, goes back to your schooldays again being bullied, does it make you feel big and brave coming on here with all your crap insults ?
Feel free to carry on getting more and more wound up as your last umpteen posts show.
By the way I'm going away at the weekend to do some shopping at Topman and to top up my blotchy tan so I may not be posting for a few days but feel free to talk to yourself "no mates"

Also Kit I don't care if you're a transexual, matters not to me. The fact is you're an idiot who only sees things from his/her/it's own perspective. So, my point still remains. I thought you wasn't going to post anymore anyway?
In other news football is still sh*t.
Did you say something skeletor?

“so go do something else like talk about fashion or perfume or reality tv like most women do”
Steve was right, you really do think in clichés.
*******************************
I told you I am a woman for no reason other than that you seemed to have the idea in your head that I am a man and a football fan when I am neither.
Now I really must be off; things to do, parsnips to root out and annihilate.

it shows you have lost your battle by saying football is crap all the time?
I AGREE football does have it's bad points:
1. wages to high
2. prices expensive (various other things)
But as I said earlier we are rather intelligent, we don't cause trouble unlike the HOOLIGANS
By the way we are not MUGS!
And you must be losing the battle as you can't get my name right.

I'd guess that Nick is a metrosexual, most likely speaks in a b*tchy camp way, has some ridiculous trendy haircut and is plastered in trashy, trendy clothes. Has an orange patchy complexion and a smug pout on his face. Basically an arrogant little pretty boy in a cardigan and plimsoles from Topman who you'd never get bored of punching in the face lol.

Why are you argueing with me anyway Nick? You think I'm going to suddenly start agreeing with you? Not likely! You don't matter to me, you're just a number, just another fool of modern Britain.
You're a grown-up? Why are your insults so childish then Nick? You sound like a silly little boy in a playground "Na na na na na, you're a paedo." As for words being 'starred' it's because they don't ussually pass the language filters on here for some reason. But nice immature little insult anyway.
The FB group: I guess the "I love football because I'm a pleb like Nick" group has millions of members. Well I hate to tell you Nick, but popularity doesn't equate something to be good! Look at Renaults and Fords and the rubbish flooding the music industry at the moment, as just three examples! They're hugely popular but complete rubbish just like football.
