9. At Heysel stadium, in Brussels, the Liverpool fans attacked Italian fans
Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 09:55 PM by RainDog
the Italian (Juvenal) soccer fans were crushed after Liverpool fans crashed a fence that separated them at the European Cup that was being played in Brussels. This situation really does not compare with Wal-Mart. - All British soccer teams clubs were banned from play in all European football (soccer) competitions for five years or so. Not long after that I was at a soccer match in Brugge (Bruges) -- and the fans of the British team were, literally, kept in a cage because they acted like.. yes, like hooligans. Hooligans (hooligan is a specific term in relation to football club groups) in Britain have been linked to right wing hate groups, racists...neo-nazis --

but you know, they're victims and not responsible for their thoughts or actions -- because they're not rich.
