Jacek Purski Quotations

Most Polish fans behave very well when the national team is playing but there are also Polish hooligans who are preparing for the World Cup. They haven't had an opportunity to travel to a major football tournament for a long time and they want to prove themselves. The hooligan scene is horrible in Poland. Most belong to racist right-wing groups. Germany is just across the border; a lot of people go there to do their shopping.

The hooligans want to use the World Cup to show that they are just as dangerous as their English, Dutch or German counterparts. We must quite simply expect the worst.
