Despair

There seems to be something about football (or soccer, if you must) that brings out the worst in people in this country.

Last night should have been a night of celebration and joyousness about a Scottish football team achieving heights unknown in recent years. But sadly a handful of alcohol-fuelled nutjobs had to go and spoil the party.

This is like the riots that recently occurred in Canada to "celebrate" a hockey win. Of course, most of the fans were peaceful, but a handful of psychos burned police cars, threw bricks, etc.

BTW, I heard a British comedian say that if he uses that name for football, somewhere a Briton would die. ;)
