    Should take a leaf out of rugby for many reasons, that as you mention, respect for the referee, not wanting players sent off ( waving of imaginary cards) not faking injury, fans stood together, I dont watch rugby but I wish I did

    Went to watch Wasps V Munster at Ricoh stadium a few years ago - real eye opener. As you said fans mixing, drink at your seats - respect. Weird when taking a pen / conversion quick and everyone quiet - wouldn't happen at football :)
