text: are english football fans hooligans??? ok ...i know it is not true....and most football fans are normal law abiding citizen...  but i must be honest...i'm dreading the start of the world cup... now whenever england plays the high streets will be full of loud, drunk people watching the football from open- air sreens, or spilling outside from pubs.  and i know i has a muslim women when a pass these people on my day to day business will receive at least a few rude comments...  do people get more aggressive when they watch football?? how dare you! getting drunk and punching people is an integral part of football it demonstrates all the qualities that make england great: fighting spirit, rebelliousness and a fine taste in alcohol (lots of it, yes, but expensive and enjoyed none the less). i personally do not make a habit of the above since i am young and must conserve any good looks i have, so i leave it to the fat guys with the shaved heads and greenish tattoos. those guys make me proud to be english!
