Trouble? What Trouble?

Nearly 500 arrested in World Cup scuffles

What a great word scuffles is. Makes the 'trouble' in Stuttgart sound like closing time at the Con Club on a Saturday night.

Oh, and here's the BBC headline for the same incident:

England fans held by riot police

That's more like it, a bit of Sturm und Drang.

    Augustus (the Emperor) has a regular on his blog, Chip (called Sarge by his workmates), who is a prison officer in the deep south....
