Who Do You Consider The Most Infamous Hooligan/Ultra Group?
I suppose the Cardiff City "Soul Crew" is probably the crew that I have heard the most about. Looking at this website http://www.ultrasworld.com/ it looks like a Feyenoord-Ajax or Atalanta-Brescia match requires body armor. Doesn't England have a good handle on the hooligan problem now? It seems that you don't hear too much about problems in England any longer.

1. english hoolignism is pretty much under control now
there are still of course occasional incidents (pompei-saints last year for example,) but I think most of it has gotten a lot better since Heysel.

As far as ultras... Juve has some pretty vicious ones (can;t remember what they're called though.)

4. The Belgrade groups are quite notorious
and there are a number of them. Obviously you have the 'undertakers' who follow Partizan, and the 'Gyppos' (their own nickname, I hasten to add) who follow Red Star, but the most notoriously violent skinhead elements follow FC Rad as far as I recall... its a pretty big problem.

6. No, he owned his own club
FC Obilic, notorious for literally purchasing the league title the season after he bought them. They then went on to play embarassingly shite in Europe...

7. I Looked At The Clubs Web Site...
I see Arkan's widow is or was the club president.

8. Yes indeed, Ceca Raznjatovic
a quite aweful folk/pop singer. Truly aweful. Worse at singing than Jordan, if that is possible.
