I'd say at most 100-200 would have been fighting more than likely even less than that ammount, trust me I've been involved in football violence and this thousands of people go fighting at football matches is just a myth. When there is any fighting at football matches which occur less than what people would have believe you get 20-30 people fighting not thousands or even hundreds.

That's still newsworthy, though. A riot is a riot.
