It is the hooligans who bring football into disrepute, not Cantona : LE TTERS
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From Mr Peter Stewart Sir: A straw poll at my office showed a majority agreeing with the following: Someone addressing foul-mouthed abuse at a total stranger in the street should not be surprised, nor do they have any right to feel aggrieved, if they get thumped.
The same would apply at a game of football.
Yours sincerely, PETER STEWART London, E9
