Dear Editor of City Gazette newspaper,

I was at the game between City Rangers and Capital United, I’m not normally a football fan and come to a lot of games, but I come to some mostly the big ones, but my friend Sally got us the tickets to the game it was very hard, because it was the last game of the season, so it was a big deal. Sally had told me that her brother, that is a big hooligan and often get in trouble with the police, would be there, with his friends, but I didn’t think further of it. So, Sally and I got ready for the big event. We got to our seats from seatgeek, and they were a good deal, they were a 9.8 on the app, On the app we saw the view whom the seats and we could see the all of the stadium. It all happened so fast and it were was a lot of people including Sally’s brother was all over the place and more people rushed in, all though the police tried to stop them from being able to enter the final match, it was really obvious what they wanted, they would ruin it for the other's team's fans and it went not only beyond them, but it was a bad day for all present, and they had to stop the fight before it all had begun. Hooliganism seems to be a big problem in the area, and I think it should stop. I hate the fact that the people must go so far just because of a football match, most of them probably just want to fight, they don’t care about the team or the game, and all they do is ruin it for the team’s actual fans. I saw a lot of the hooligans getting arrested after the match was cancelled, but the problem is that they go right through the system and are back doing the same things at the next game. In the first five minutes ”fans” started to throw stuff at the players to distract the other team, that just resolved in the other teams fans doing it as well and the match got cancelled at half time. I think the government should do something about this problem, because this is getting out of hand very fast and it sure doesn’t help just letting them back on the street a couple of hours after they get arrested, they need a bigger punishment, like a big fine on maybe 200 Pound, depending on how violent they were at the match.
