Football
is a sport which I am personally passionate about. I love the atmosphere as the
stadium fills up with the teams devoted fans and the poetic sound of football
songs being carried through the stands. I sing along to the chants and songs as
its part of the friendly banta however it’s a shame that some people’s only match
day motivation, is to cause trouble and fight with the opposition. This minority
of false and usually violent fans, attend the games for the wrong reasons not
to actually watch the “beautiful game”, but simply attend to cause trouble by
fighting, hurling abuse at the players or opposition fans and behaving like
genuine hooligans. This really is a shame, as this behaviour causes the stigma
usually associated with football as being the sport played by gentleman and
observed by thugs.
