MY SOLUTION to Britain's hooligan problem would be for our Government to approach the Russian Government with an offer it could not refuse.
Considering the vastness of the country, and I have a preference for icy Siberia, I suggest we pay the Russians to "take care" of our unwanted thugs in their excellent penal colonies, for no less than five years.
There, under strict supervision, hooligans would spend their time there breaking ice with axes for no less than 12 hours a day.
Naturally, this work would be done on a shift basis of 12-hour nights and 12-hour days.
Three meals would be provided daily - consisting of gruel, gruel and more gruel.
No communications would be allowed with the outside world, especially with family, until these yobs prove they can be trusted to take their social responsibilities seriously.
This applies to all classes, all creeds and all colours without exception. So help them God.
