The fact that this can happen to River Plate gives us hope that something similar can happen to Man Utd.

I think I'd rather see Spurs go down.

Spurs, Man U and Liverpool would be perfect. That said, I never get tired of watching Geordies cry...

River Plate keep selling all the stars players and eventually it bite them hard as they won't be able to find/develop decent replacement

Had no idea they were anywhere near in danger of going down.  The Argies had better do well at the Copa America now or there'll be a few more riots i'd imagine.

I went to a random league game there a few years ago and the police presence was ridiculous.  I can't even begin to imagine the amount of trouble there would've been after this.

Wiki states:
Quote
Los Borrachos del Tablón (Drunks of Terrace in english) is the barra brava of the Club Atlético River Plate. They are considered one of the most violent and feared barra brava group in Argentina, and one of the four most powerful
Another translation is drunks of the plank.

Looks like Los Borrachos might need to forsake the bottle for the crack pipe.

How ironic. I thought HMS Conqueror sent Belgrano permanently down a while back.

Made me smile seeing Belgrano's team name.

I feel bad for saying that now. Just a stupid reaction to the name. :-X
