It was a great shame that the EUFA Final would be tarnished by a few morons.
For the most part violence at football matches in the UK is all but a distant memory. But occassionaly it rears its ugly head.
As a kid my dad used to take me to the Arsenal. Always loved going with him, but there were certain games that he was very weary about taking me too. Arsenal v Tottenham games and Arsenal v Man Utd games in particular. I can remember a couple of episodes against Tottenham that were very scary. The worst being on a underground train on the way home. A gang of Tottenham fans were going from tube station to tude station, getting on the platform and then as the train would pull in they would throw lead wieghts, fire extinghishers and any other heavy object that they could throw through the train windows. I was at Covent Garden station when we got attacked. Scariest moment in my life.
Thank fully, for the most part, this is a thing of the past.
