Not always the case mate
Our reputation proceeds us BIG TIME (granted) but in World Cup 98 the french police were dressing up in jeans and an England shirt (groups of 10/15) and beating the sh*t out of Tunisian fans then running off and changing back into their uniforms.
The end result was thousands of Tunisians severly p*ssed off at the fact the "English" had carried out an unprovoked beating hospitalising some of the North African fans which of course led to the running battles between fans
That is a fact
fair enough but there was alot of English there just to cause trouble as well, I remember been at a freindly at Lansdowne road which since i'd have no simpity for holigans, i do feel sorry for the genuine fans(which is most of them) that get caught up in all the riots
