Absolute madness and crazy for a fight over the Football. It really isn't worth it these days is it.

Also, back then, most football lads were 21 and under. If you got 6 months in a detention centre, it would often mean that you would have to serve the entire 6 months as there wasn't the release option that prison sentences had (2 thirds).

Where did I say prison for football was new??
Not that I'm proud of it but it's an area I have quite a bit of experience in unfortunately as I have mates who have done time for West Ham 2004, Stoke at the play off home game in 2002, Chelsea in 2010 amongst others and I have had a suspended sentence myself many years before (which if happened now would have probably meant jail), what is new though is the length of the sentences hence why I said it's madness. back in the 70's and 80's more often than not you would get a slap on the wrist or a fine, people were doing far worse than they are now and IF jail time was handed out it would be days not months or years and that was rare.
But since the turn of the Millennium, what happened at Euro 2000 and France 98 and all that panorama shit and the Macyntire crap sentences have gone through the roof and lads are getting jailed for the sort of lengths I quoted above which is absolute madness and does not fit the crime and why it really isn't worth it now, not that it ever was of course.
