Lost a game? Why not kick someone in the head?

Usually we have to turn our attention to South America to see a good old fashioned brawl on the terraces (evidence here, here, here and here), but last weekend Europe was treated to a terrifying portion of fan violence.

In a Polish First Division match (their equivalent of the Championship), high-flying Flota Swinoujscie completely drank visiting side Wisla Plock’s milkshake, dishing out a 4-1 demolition. Finding no better way to console themselves than to commit random acts of violence, the visitors proceeded to break down a fence and deliver a beat down to the home fans.

The result? Twenty-seven arrests and a European community of football fans looking forward to a warm welcome when they arrive for Euro 2012.
