 Football Violence in Europe - Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Football hooliganism, once known as the 'British Disease', has been for many years a major cause for concern throughout Europe — particularly in Germany, Holland, Italy and Belgium, as well as in the UK.
With the gradual spread of football sub-culture style, and its sometimes aggressive patterns of behaviour, throughout most of Europe in the late 1970s, their interest became more focused on the behaviour of fans in their own countries than with purely theoretical perspectives.
Contemporary research on football violence is now largely European in scope, as reflected in a number of recent conferences in the UK and Italy and in major publications over the last few years.

 Football Violence in Europe - Tackling the problem   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
The English Football Association recommended that plain clothes officers be used in the domestic game as far back as the mid-sixties and requests for the police to infiltrate travelling supporters with plain clothes officers were also made by the Football Association in 1981.
While the German, Belgian and Dutch authorities, in particular, have engaged in proactive initiatives to reduce the problems, the British continue, in the main, to employ purely reactive strategies involving more intensive policing of football fans, sophisticated surveillance and intelligence measures and new legislation.
While football hooliganism appears to be on the decline, at least in the UK, the problems that remain are unlikely to be eradicated simply through additional — and in some people's view, oppressive — controls on the movement of fans, curbs on the availability of alcohol or similarly simplistic 'solutions' to a complex phenomenon.

 McArdle, 'One Hundred Years of Servitude: Contractual Conflict in English Professional Football before Bosman.' [2000] ...
The various folk games of 'football' that were being played in England and the rest of Europe by the fourteenth century are generally accepted as the forerunners of the modern version, although whether the origins of contemporary football can be traced even further back remains a matter of debate.
The Football Association's eventual, reluctant, decision to allow professionalism merely represented their acceptance of the inevitable, but its recognition of professional players was accompanied by the introduction of terms and conditions which allowed it to closely regulate those players' activities.
This decision reinforced the football authorities' belief that 'purely sporting considerations' meant the imposition of quotas and the transfer system were 'appropriate and proportionate' and justified the provisions of the Treaty of Rome being disregarded despite the Commission's protestations to the contrary.

The Commission took into consideration the fact that Kaklamanos had never been sanctioned by the Belgian FA before, had a good reputation and had already been fired by Standard, as well as the fact that the testing of the B sample took an unusually long time.
"That is because the Belgian FA has to follow Belgian civil law in doping cases," Belgian FA spokesman Nicolas Cornu said.
