Been to quite a few games overseas and what is very different to here is that foreign police use drug detection dogs near turnstiles. I haven't seen too much cocaine use by fans myself but have been next to fans who want to fight but weren't drunk, with glazed eyes. With these types it is always really minor things that set them off. Does cocaine make people more likely to act aggressive?

Yeah, I'd say it probably does. That's not to say that everyone on it is going to act aggressively but it does it make it more likely.

I thought it was very hard to grow your own weed in the Uk

No it's very easy and there is a huge (quite legal) industry supporting it.

As I found out, if you have irrigation in your garden and travel to a specialist supplier to get some connectors you can easily walk out with

1) a reflective grow tent
2) a set of lamps
2) and even some carbon filters to cover up the smell.

And no, I'm not growing it :) But many many are.

Bit of toot & football go hand in hand and most are fine with it

Same as alcohol

% of Nobs everywhere though

These dogs were used when we visited Fulham, Chelsea and Liverpool in recent seasons. Probably others as well but I certainly recall at those 3 grounds.

Do you have anything to back that up? Or just some wild guess? FYI purity levels are at the highest ever recorded

I must have had some shit coke dealers then, apart from Toni the Albanian geezer but it was quite a journey to meet him - built like a brick shithouse he was.
