    They were mainly from a lower socio-economic scale.

    The Millwall and Charlton fans weren't rioting they were actually protecting the shops and businesses on Eltham High Street.

    The rioters in Salford and Manchester were mainly white, it has been said that some of them were "Noonan's boys" and allegedly being directed by Manchester gangster Dominyck Noonan (subject of a TV film) who is also the Uncle of the guy Duggan who was shot by the police in Tottenham which started the riots off.
