Kick a football hooligan when he’s
down. It’s more fun that way.
COPENHAGEN,
Denmark -- An appeals court has ordered a Danish fan to pay the country's
soccer federation nearly $320,000 in damages for trying to attack the referee
during a European Championship qualifier between Denmark and Sweden in 2007.
Ronni
Noervig had appealed a lower court ruling imposing damages of $155,000, saying
he couldn't afford to pay them. But instead of lowering the amount, the Eastern
High Court more than doubled it after the Danish federation raised its claims.
Noervig
stormed the field in Copenhagen on June 2, 2007, and tried to punch the referee
after he awarded a penalty to Sweden. A Danish player stopped him. The match
was abandoned, and Sweden was awarded a 3-0 win.
Noervig has said he was drunk and called the incident a
"moment of idiocy."
My take: More than ever, Noervig
needs a drink Bwahaha. What an idiot! Pay up, ya drunk bum.
