Now I resent that... you will NEVER ever see the hooligan aspect at a soccer match in the republic of Ireland... EVER!!!!!
thats utter rubbish... sorry... having seen battles between English and Irish fans during that game when the English ripped up the seats.
I saw them fighting each other on the pitch... and then there was skirmishes ouside the ground :(
oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
although, i know about football and you claim you dont so heres the hard facts:-
Scotland's fans have won more awards for their conduct than any OTHER nation!.. Scotlands Tartan Army (as they are known amongst the footballing world) are far more recognised than any other nation for their good behaviour and fun loving nature than any other travelling fans*. This is undisputed.

We were defending our country!
Ireland scored, SOME English fans started ripping up the streets... we fought back, as would you, but that was pure organised hooliganism at its finest. I should know, my father and my brother were there. That was 95 I think - the only game you can think of?? When the English were in town?

For their attitude towards the opposition fans and their contribution towards the atmosphere i think the tartan army are great, but i would rather be one of the normal scotland fans like myself.
The tartan army can be embarrassing when they cheer other team's goals, which happens sometimes. What the hell is that all about?
People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.
Now hold on Dunk, the english fans started ripping seats and attacking kids....what the fuck would you do ??
And outside it was the gardai that we kicking english ass
i would fight back... but then i wasnt the person who said... "you will NEVER ever see the hooligan aspect at a soccer match in the republic of Ireland... EVER!!!!!"
which just isnt true... in the history of Irish soccer not one person has been arrested or cautioned for anything akin to hooliganism .... doubtful!!

It seems to be sad but true that many football hooligans are English.
This, however, does not mean that all English football fans are hooligans. The few who do cause trouble would cause trouble wherever they go and whatever they do. I don't believe it really has anything to do wiht football. The hooligans are most likely the people who are voting for the BNP.
And for those Irish and Scottish who are dissasiating themselves from the English, I understand why. I am ashamed to be associated with some of these people...and I can't deny association because of my nationality.
The majority of English football fans are good, well behaved people who just want to have a good time. There are a few who want to spoil it for everyone.

look.. in this instance you cant win... you obviously dont know a lot about football or you would realise that Scottish fans are internationally renowned for their support around the globe... now bear in mind Ireland have only been to about 2 or 3 major championships... so when you have been to as many World Cups as Scotland and had as many awards as Scotland then we'll talk
you dont have to have Ireland win at everything you know... i know you think they do, but in this instance they dont.. ask REAL football fans around the globe and they'll confirm the above facts about Scotland... thank you
