Still violence in England but nowhere near what it used to be like and def not like it is in some places in Europe which doesn't get many column inches and also doesn't cross the wrath of UEFA infact they seem to be softer on punishment than they've ever been.
Just amazes me this happens in Europe and pretty much nothing ever happens, on the otherhand England who have a pretty good reputation at the moment get threatened by FIFA and UEFA with being thrown out of tournaments if there's any trouble.
