BBC Stop Screening England World Cup Matches

The BBC has made the decision to not screen England Wold Cup matches on big screens around the UK after violence marred England�s match against Paraguay last week.

Violence broke out in London and Liverpool on Saturday and police were forced to disperse the crowds with the assistance of some very angry dogs.

The BBC said in a statement: "We will only show World Cup matches when those responsible for public safety agree that we should. This decision will clearly be a disappointment to many people but the activities of a tiny minority has jeopardized the enjoyment of many."

There are always a few dickheads ain�t there�
