I just don't understand why things have got so much worse with regards to the behaviour of our fans...I certainly don't remember it being this way even 10 years ago. I remember when I was 16,17, 18 years old and had a season ticket; I would walk to and from Highfield Road (particularly for night games) and never felt concerned about there being violent episodes to witness, and I certainly don't recall seeing any. Yet nowadays it is almost every match.
Is it a result of fans frustrations against the owners? Is it just more evident to me as I am more aware of my surroundings due to recent world events? Do these scuffles stick in the mind more because I would like to one day take my nieces to a game, only to then think that I would not wish for them to see such behaviour, or risk being verbally abused or even spat at?
