FFS, can these people not behave themselves?
It is actually possible to have a few drinks without throwing the bottles at other people.

ah BBC news says there were a few 'scuffles' with German fans

Indeed, the Riot Police are often called in to deal with "scuffles".Quote:

I don't think throwing bottles at people constitutes "minor scuffles" but maybe that's just me.
The German Police made it clear they were going for a zero tolerance policy, good on them. Why should real fans, trying to enjoy the tournament, have to put up with the sort of shite who thinks that kind of behaviour is OK.
Throwing bottles was so last week. :rolleyes:
Eaqula blame can go to other countries fans though who have also been involved.
At the end of the day our behaviour is a vast improvement from before, even in 8 years its changed rapidly. France 98 i think was a very big wake up call to ALL countries.
Really, I beg to differ.Quote:

We used to do the same, then we thought, fuck that let's have a party. Now the Scottish fans are welcome everywhere they go (except the huns).
Geman and Polish fans also ckashed at this world cup.
I'm not condoning the behaviour, merely stating that thicks have changed a lot for the better
