At least our fans only paint themselves and make loud noises at games. English soccer fans are world-renowned for being listed as WMD's.
Hmm. I do vaguely remember some disturbances after Detroit Pistons game not far ago?

Anyway, football is a modern equivalent of war. American football is a ruse to present leggy cheer leaders to the prudish customers.

Lads, can you imagine such a sceanary at Anfield ? They' never walk alone
