This is possible the reason then.

And when did Goofle ever claim that fightng in the game was good? He was talking about cheering, laughing, applauding, the odd pitch invasion, all in good taste and with all fans bonded together. Nothing like riots or any sort of trouble, which we all hate to see. |
He never claimed that fighting in the game was good but he was talking about how passionate the fans are and from an American perspective a large majority of your football game ends up with fans fighting each other. Green hooligans is pretty accurate. Movies are just like real life.
