# sadly, this had nothing to do with sportballs though.
The Poles were, naturally, a tad upset that the Ruskies decided to have a Russia day march through Krakow, the day the two teams were playing each other.

Tad short sighted on UEFA's part.

Bit like having England play Germany, in Berlin on VE-day

# The people that were fighting wanted to fight.
Yes, it was Russia Day; yes, the Russians were in Poland
But neither of these things caused yesterday's troubles.

It was the fact that small groups, (within both sets of fans), love nothing better than a punch up - and they knew exactly where and when to get one.

I'm not dismissing the bad blood that exists between the two countries, but I think it's being used as an excuse for idiots that simply like to thump other idiots.

# Fair enough
and that's the exact same argument people should use when they talk about football hooligans.
Football doesn't make them thugs. they are just thugs

# Exactly! And the same with wars.
Most of us don't start those either.

# I personally don't think football is violent enough
I'd prefer it if the teams played with the severed head of an enemy tribe
