Is it ? Would the same rules be applied for ripping up the Bible ? I doubt it.
The way I see it is this country is a Christian country not Islam. So if you don't like that just leave and join your Brotherhood.
It's an extreme form of hatred, it does not matter which religion it's target there should be no place for it in football!

So you don't believe in freedom of religion? What other freedoms do you have a problem with?
You think people should be allowed to exhibit religious hatred on football terraces?

On topic, this is a bit petty, surely there must be more to this IE what the people actually said. This BBC article (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-26389242) says that the words "Koran, Muslims and burning" were used. Now, im fairly sure they wouldnt be used in polite terms, put it that way. What was said must have had an impact here.
They were found guilty in a court! Pretty sure that's means it was wrong
