exactly...i am not fan of football, but it is an icon to the kids and they should clamp down more on the players....

Our local premier league team, portsmouth fc has a terrible reputation with its fans....

we have actually had riots in the city when they played southampton fc last year...

it was really frightening...we had mobs of youths and older men and women rampaging through the streets, smashing up cars and putting windows through, one woman who was coming home from doing her shopping was so scared that she had a heart attack on the spot and died because the ambulance could not get to her.....

its truly shameful......and they should clamp down more on the fans, out of the hundreds of fans who rioted, only two, iirc, were given lifetime bans for their part in incenting a mob to riot...

what is our world coming to......and also, iirc, their were kids as young as ten actively partaking in the riots
