Gentrification

The fashion started with politicians parading their football supporting credentials so that they looked like ordinary human beings, it spread into the grounds with the 'prawn sandwich brigade' of corporate hospitality guests, it was reinforced by rocketing ticket prices as clubs became the playthings of international billionaires and now we have reached the ultimate in gentrification - posh football hooligans.

One of the Chelsea fans behaving in a racist way has been identified as
... part of a small but “vocal” Ukip crowd during their time at Millfield private school more than a year-and-a-half ago.
Millfield charges fees of £30,000 a year. 

Now what was all that guff about the white working class again?
