Israel: Football Fans

Categories: Middle East & North Africa, Israel, Sport, Travel

Israeli blogger Stephanie says that more than 7,000 British football fans [1]are expected to be in Israel for a much anticipated match…and some more.
“The English side of the stadium has already sold out but the British fans are interested in matters beyond the game – they’re looking forward to sunning themselves on the beach, checking out restaurants, partying and hitting the local pubs (uh oh). The Israel press claims British police have banned “known hooligans” from coming over for the game. What a relief. Ha ha,” she writes.
