There was a few bad apples, most of whom had ENGLAND tattoo's I might add, clearly chelski fans, but most of the real fans were in great form, 40 arrests from 200,000 PISHED the whole day isn't too bad.

I had a great time and happy that we had the experience even if we lost, it's not gonna happena again for a lot of years.

Zenit deserved it, good luck to them, they were a class act.

Why clearly Chelsea fans? I am confused by this comment.

All of that stuff is pretty much blinkered, the real problem is that the UK (especially Scotland, especially Glasgow) has an alcohol problem.

I can't comment as to whether it is a particularly Glasgow problem as I don't live there but I was embarrassed at the number of Rangers fans interviewed live on Five Live before 7am who were talking about how they were drunk already and planned to drink until kick off or had a Tennants for breakfast ("a Scottish breakfast"). The drinking culture we have is unpleasant.
