But its got to be said, English hooligans are by no means the worst. I've seen some stuff in eastern europe and south america that will genuinely make you tremble in fear if youre nearby. I mean, ive been to a Lazio - Inter game (which is supposed to be friendly). Lazio are the worst in Italy. Before i got in the stadium i was totally shitting it even though i was wearing my Lazio scarf.

English hoolies are fine in comparison because they dont have operational ties with the mafia. In south america, the ultras ARE the mafia. Killings are pretty much normal.

Of course, they're not exceedingly dangerous, they're drunken inbred rabble. In the English hooligans' faces you see this...retardedness. You don't see it that badly in most other countries' hooligans, it's a curious thing.

But their sheer numbers make up for their lack in true criminal intent or for intelligence required to pull criminal schemes. Like you said Derf, it's not that they're the most dangerous bunch around, but it's just....they're so many of them, and they all seem to look alike and it's a typically British problem. Something must be very rotten in the state of England.

On the comment of them looking the same, I have to say I say the same thing about every foriegn person that walks through the door at work.

I think it's so much more obvious because they're obviously not from the UK, though. It's worse with pakistanis and indians, however.

But yes, generally, football fans a chavs, or would have been chav's if they'd have been born a few generations later.

lol, holy shit, I suck. I got 3....which is less than I should have statistically gotten through random selection. Ok...fine. But I can still tell the difference between two people.

I got 4. I guess my "look-at-the-eyes" criteria didnt work.

7. Woohoo.
