I see that there has been a nasty fight between Welsh and English supporters. Why does a sport provoke fighting and brawling? Other nations must be laughing their heads off at us Brits. I also saw a photo of six proud Scotsmen in their kilts (each one in his family's tartan) and sporrans, protesting they did NOT support the English. (no surprise there!) I well remember going to a match between Celtic and Rangers in Glasgow. The fights and violence on the terraces were terrifying. Is this a 'man thing' or a 'football thing'? At least in those days, too much alcohol was behind most of it. But that isn't allowed in Qatar.
