England supporters have decided once again to use their time in a foreign country to terrorise locals and raise havoc.
Three Lion fans have travelled to Amsterdam to cheer on Gareth Southgate's men against Holland in an international friendly which will be played later tonight.
Southgate is coming into the later stages of his warm-up games before the World Cup in Russia this summer, so fans will be hoping that the team put on a decent display.

But before tonight's game, England supporters sank one too many lagers and have seemingly peaked too early - a completely rookie mistake on their behalf.
Everyone knew things were heading for trouble when footage emerged earlier today of a group of ardent England supporters standing on a bridge and pouring their beer on tourists as they went past in a boat below.
It's almost inevitable, then, that we can now bring you the news that some two dozen England fans have now been detained by the Dutch police, presumably arrested under the 'Being a Complete C**k on Holiday Offence 1990.'

Trouble went on in the city centre, where things got so bad that riot police had to be deployed to the scene to calm down p****d fans from endangering the public.
Police have even confirmed that they have stopped enforcing a public alcohol ban in the city's red-light district because of the high number of England supporters in the area. They've also stressed that they will be on hand in a large presence at the Amsterdam Arena for tonight's clash.
It's not a great start. There is often scrutiny around the behaviour of England fans abroad, an image which the country is desperately attempting to get rid of.

This won't help matters much.
We can just hope that this isn't the practice round for the World Cup in Russia. Gulp.
