What a mockery, this football evening. Almost 50 years ago I was at the first football riot during Feyenoord-Tottenham Hotspur.

A toothless KNVB and government ensured that nothing changed’ and ‘We could really watch English football for once, where fan violence has been virtually eradicated due to very strict legislation’: these are some reactions from readers to the news about the semi-final of the KNVB Cup between Feyenoord and Ajax. Below are the readers’ letters that appear in the newspaper of Friday 7 April. You can send in your own response to [email protected].
