Football Violence Flares After Legoland FC Dumped Out Of Cup

View Photo Database Supporters of Legoland FC have gone on the rampage in the centre of Legoland City tonight following their side's elimination from the LEGO European Cup at the Quarter Finals stage. Legoland FC were held to a 2-2 draw by Kland club Black Hearts and the result saw the Klanders win on the away goals rule after the first leg tie last week ended 1-1. Fans of the Legoland league leaders rioted throughout the game and increased their trouble making exponentially after the final whistle was blown. There are reports of dozens injured and serious damage to the club's stadium. According to some eye witnesses, hooligans from Legoland FC left the stadium shortly after 9pm and started attacking any minifig in the city centre wearing the colour red, the colour of their bitter rivals Legoland United. When Empire Police arrived in force, the supporters bagan to throw missiles at all and sundry and proceeded to vandalise any commercial buildings within their reach. The Legoland City branch of McDonald's was severely attacked as would be expected.

Empire Police chief Biggus Piggus has called for the arrest of "all football scoundrels" and promised to "do nearly everything we can" to bring the rioters to justice. "We will be looking for funding from central government to be used to fund a 200 capacity maximum security prision for football hooligans. Plans for this prison are only at an early stage but they will be developed in particular to cope with supporters of LFC".

Meanwhile, Legoland FC's Public Relations Officer, Daniele Massaro, called the violence "not as bad as minifigs are suggesting". In an obvious attempt to reduce the likelihood of a fine for his club, Mr Massaro claimed "petty violence looks much worse on TV". He also accused the city's public transport network of being the real reason for the rioting. "These minifigs were not rioting because we lost a game of football. The rail and bus services in this city are a joke. When you've been standing in a stadium for over 90 minutes it is not much to expect a quick journey home. Things must improve. Everyone loves a clown. Why dont you?".

In the night's other LEC results, Juventus ensured that Legoland will have one club in the competition's Semi Finals after a 4-0 home win over Gigantic Mongols secured a 5-0 victory on aggregate. Inter Pondaland's 1-1 draw with Icarians saw them progress whilst reigning holders Blue Berry Bridge 2-1 victory over Eland side Barbarians was enough to see them through.





Does hooliganism look worse on TV than in reality?
