It is one thing for the numbskulls to give each other brain damage, but not when there are innocent bystanders getting caught up in it too. The most disturbing images from West Ham were of a petrified eight-year-old girl who had been repeatedly hit by coins and was visibly shaking as she recounted the experience.


The scenes at West Ham’s London Stadium are an exception as the arena was built for spectators to watch athletics, without any need for segregation or intensive policing. Barely a match has passed there this season without some sort of disturbance.

And when a stadium is properly policed, aided by state of the art CCTV, the lads who like trouble just smash things up; as images of Man City fans destroying toilets at Old Trafford on Wednesday night illustrated.

There are numerous Twitter accounts devoted to the away day match experience and it is not just in Manchester, Liverpool, and London where photos and videos of aggro are posted. Similar anti-social behaviour is still going on when Wolves and West Brom meet, for a Sheffield derby, a Palace and Brighton clash and apparently whenever Warrington and Widnes face off in Rugby League.

And it is not because West Ham have moved to a stadium difficult to police we are witnessing regular occurrences of trouble again, for it was just the same at their hallowed Upton Park.

A colleague covering the West Ham v Chelsea match on Wednesday said he did not witness the trouble inside the ground until he saw it on Twitter as he had been watching the match and the fisticuffs had finished as quickly as it started.

Maybe his lack of shock was because he is from an era when hooliganism meant hand-to-hand fighting between like-minded people, not jostling with stewards and shouting abuse. And there is an argument these men should be given the stage – or a disused car park – to take their frustrations out on each other. ‘Anywhere but our football grounds’ is what the authorities seem to say as they wash their hands of the really bad trouble outside the stadiums.

For English football hooliganism has never stopped, it has just been conveniently airbrushed out of match-day coverage.

Mobile phones and social media have made everyone a journalist and small events are routinely blown into big ones. Any sane person in the English football watching world will think the dark days are back and that means they could stop paying to watch it.

But is it really anything new? As violent scenes are relatively rare these days, a photo of a contorted face or a video of a crowd surging is suddenly billed as a war zone. Have they not seen what is happening in Syria?

6. Diego Maradona, shooting journalists with an air rifle

Diego Armando Maradona is widely regarded as one of the greatest players of all-time. Despite his brilliant footballing prowess,the Argentine legend was not a model off the pitch. Maradona was always lambasted for his obscene language, his drug abuse, alcoholism and his lack of self-control in general.Back in 1994, the Argentine shot photographers and journalists with an air rifle. Four people were injured. TV footage showed Maradona and two other men shoot from behind a Mercedes. He was sentenced to two years and 10 months in prison for his assault.

7. Glen Johnson, stealing a toilet seat

Why would anyone in their right mind try to steal a bathroom fitting? Well, you’d have to ask Glen Johnson for that. In 2007, the English right-back was actually caught attempting to steal a toilet seat in Dartford, Kent. At the time Johnson was playing for Portsmouth on loan from Chelsea; he was earning up to £30,000 per week. Why would he steal a toilet seat in the first place? One worker at the store said, “We all recognized Johnson. They seemed to find the whole thing funny and couldn’t stop smirking even after they had been arrested. ” It’s moronic and downright absurd.

8. Charles N’Zogbia, driving test fraud

People try to game the system all the time. Some get away with it, others are caught. French winger Charles N’Zogbia was arrested after sending someone else to do the driving test for him. Back in 2003, N’Zogbia was playing for Wigan Athletic. He was arrest at a driving test center in Altrincham, part of the Greater Manchester area. N’Zogbia tried to fool the authorities by sending someone else to take the theory section on his behalf, but with no success. False representation is an offence in almost every country. Fortunately, the French got away with a caution.

9. Rene Higuaita, part of a kidnapping plot

Most people remember the Colombian former goalkeeper Rene Higuaita for his icon scorpion kick, but few know that he was once involved in a kidnapping plot.The flamboyant goalie was not accused of kidnapping per se,but he was accused of arranging and profiting from a kidnap. Drug trafficking, kidnapping and football are the epitome of Colombia,a country that has been plagued by social unrest,corruption and drug wars. Rene Higuaita was involved in the kidnapping of an 11-years-old girl, the daughter of a drug lord. He was arrested and sentenced to 7 months in prison. The charges were eventually dropped, though.

10. Vinnie Jones, threatening to murder flight passengers

Former Leeds United, Wimbledon and Chelsea midfielder Vinnie Jones was known for his brutal tackles and his violent approach to games. His arrogant and violent demeanor wasn’t confined to football only; he is a cocky person in real life as well. The footballer turned actor has been involved in many incidents. For example, Vinnie Jones threatened to murder an entire cabin crew back in 2003. The incident happened during a flight to Los Angeles. Jones was sentenced to 80 hours of community service and also had to pay compensations for his violent rage and obscene language.

"The ogun wey dey folo me for chelsea don follow me cum manU" what mourinho was seen saying to conte's ears After the match.

lol.. ..

na nightmare for mourinho fo stamford bridge

ah sure im go see another thing yarn tmao

The flashpoint between the pair came at the final whistle after Conte had gesticulated for the Stamford Bridge crowd to start singing for their team with time running out.
Conte denied that was his motivation, insisting that he simply felt his team deserved the adulation of the crowd.
It was not simply Mourinho who did not take the defeat well. A member of his staff ignored the outstretched hand of Conte at the final whistle and was involved in a heated argument with a Chelsea coach in the tunnel.

"Don't do that [celebrate] at 4-0. 1-0 okay, but 4-0 is humiliating,” Mourinho said to Conte in Italian, which was picked up by nearby microphones"

Both Mourinho and Conte refused to confirm what was said, but neither man denied the version of events that was put to them

Conte's animated response to victory was said to have upset Mourinho
Conte said: “I think that the private conversation must remain private. If someone discovers something, OK. But for me the private conversation remains private.

“I think that, today, it was right to call our fans in a moment I was listening only to the supporters of Manchester United at 4-0. So I called the fans to give the players a great clap after this kind of performance. The players, after a 4-0 win, deserved a great clap. It's very normal

On the incident with Conte, Mourinho said: “You know me. I spoke to Conte, not to you. I'm not the kind of guy to come here and share with you things I don't want to share. What is between me and Antonio is for us ... or up to him to talk if he wants to. That is his problem. I have no comment.
