If This Were During A Football Match...
...I wouldn't be surprised.

hooligans? ///
Ah! but it does, one more point in the 'agenda' battle.
*** Habib Ur, 29, of Leeds, said Asian hooligans had put him off going to matches. He said: "They are young kids who get over excited. They are the same in everything they are involved in. It's down to their parents, their upbringing. They are not being looked after and there is a clash between both cultures." ***

Regarding cricket watchers: I wouldn't call them hooligans, but some can be very irritating. The Barmy Army have sparked complaints about their drinking, loud singing and trumpet-playing as well as their habit of passing a massive snake of plastic beer cups above the heads of people in the crowd. I am a cricket fan, BTW.
I was shocked to see the photo of the rugby player pinning the man by his throat to the ground. I've never seen that in any sport, before.

I am a Rugby League fan and it's safe to say that crowd trouble is quite rare, but there have been a few incidents in the last couple of years.
It's one of the few sports where supporters of the most hated rivals can stand shoulder-to-shoulder on the Terraces. It's also one of the few sports where fans of other teams (Not including the ones playing) will also turn up to watch - I went to the Challenge Cup Final in 2014 and there were supporters wearing colours from a wide variety of teams, not just Castleford and Leeds who were contesting the Final.
