This book examines some of the disturbing and extreme instances that have taken place within the past five decades, including the Heysel Stadium disaster of May 1985 which led to the subsequent five-year exclusion of English clubs from European competition through to the abandonment of an England friendly against the Republic of Ireland in February 1995.
