Re: Football and Racism
A couple of dollars more is unlikely to do much on a 35 pound ticket. And actually, that would make things worse, not better. The fans you scare away with increased ticket prices are the families, who are nice, not the problematic elements. Lowering ticket prices is a better bet for better behaviour in crowds.
And anyway, the problem has mostly disappeared in western europe. The measures worked brilliantly. We now need to do what we did here in Serbia and the rest of eastern Europe.
I would actually accept vuvuzela's if it meant a definite ban on drums... It should be perfectly legal to shoot all drummers at football stadiums.
Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
