Yeah it's no fun that way if you just want to have a good time but need to work around the assholes.
The Northern Irish team managed to clean up well, the manager had to spend two years talking to all supporter clubs in person. He got rid of the sectarian/racist chants though and football is really taking off.
Not sure how infiltrated they were by scumbags though. And agree if you come for a fight you don't support football.
I'm an away travelling Arsenal fan and we've had Tommy Robinson and mates turn up to European away games just to have a scrap alongside their Arsenal mates. The Luton town bunch do seem to like their continental fighting. Last time I saw him and Danny Tommo was in Munich. Every club has them. Spurs or Arsenal no exception.
The political allegiances and behaviour of a minority of fans on our away trips has led me to seriously consider not going any more. Although technically speaking, if you're turning up to away games for a team you don't support just for the knuckle you probably don't get to call yourself a fan.
