I watched one Ban Gardaí repeatedly kick an English skinhead they were trying to get into the back of a Gardaí car in the ribs with her the heel of her shoe, as two other guards held him. I actually heard his ribs cracking. He was squealing and crying like a pig. I watched them throw seats at women and kids in the stands and injure them badly, so they deserved every bit of it. For once I felt proud to be Irish that day. For once, just once, the Irish people and authorities didn't take the usual thuggary lying down.

I'll never forget the total look of surprise, fear and panic on the skinheads faces when the guards stated literally splitting skulls with the battons. After hurting Irish women and kids at the game, the got everything they deserved.

They covered the Old town square with their club flags and did the same to the inside of many of the bars. Of course the Estonians were too polite to stop them. I went to the game and a large group of the ones without tickets managed to force their way into the stadium and the game had to be delayed as a result. Afterwards I went into town expecting it to be a jungle. I was right. A bunch of Russian's had made the trip from Narva to Tallinn for the specific purpose of fighting with the English fans and the bar I was got wrecked as the result of a huge fight between 2 groups of Russians and English. Blood, glass and chairs everywhere. Just as I was leaving said bar there was another colossal brawl outside the main big tourist bar/nightclub and entire streets had to be cordoned off. Honestly I didnt know what to expect when the draw was made and it showed England coming to Estonia. I certainly didnt expect for that many stereotypes to ring true. The vast majority were sound as always. But the more drink that was thrown into them the smaller that majority became.

The success of that team In '88 & '90 in particular tends to stymie that line of argument, but it's not without merit.
