And of course there are the English hooligans - no attempt at denial here. We have a lot less of a problem here now than we did 15 years ago, although of course one hopes that any present offenders are suitably dealt with. Much progress has been made at barring people, but there still exists a determined, organised section who always manage to get through the controls.

The German Police issud a statement that it was some German 'fans' who initiated the chair-throwing, and a section of the thousands of English 'fans' retaiated. Understandably, the possibility of a thousand-strong crowd worried the German police, and they have taken action.

Don't get me wrong guys. I'm not specifically picking on the english hoolies. I just used the Stuttgart inccident as an example. There are many other instances where it was much worse.
