For those of you who watch english football(soccer) then you ,ay know about the history between West Ham and Millwall. Well they clashed tonight in a carling cup match and the fans took it way too far/ If you've seen the movie Green Street then you may have a background to this story.

Nothing better than mass rioting after a soccer game, see in America 7 people show up to a soccer game and nothing happens, but in Europe people fight and throw things, in the story a man was stabbed. People showing pride for the sport and their teams.

To be fair in our country we're getting much better at managing things like this, and it doesn't happen as often as it used to.

Back in the day it was very bad, Hillsborough for instance. But these were two clubs from the roughest and crappest parts of the country, so it was to be expected really.

No, that isnt support for the teams. That was scumbags who invaded he pitch and who were looking for a fight. Now there will be increased security inside and outside the stadiums
