Speaking ahead of the official launch of South Wales Police’s annual Tackling Domestic Abuse campaign tomorrow, he told the Echo that while domestic violence happens all year round, the link between major rugby games and attacks is clear.

Last year, South Wales Police recorded 66 incidents of domestic violence between 5pm on Saturday, February 7, to 3am on Sunday, February 8. The following weekend, when Wales played England in Cardiff, the number of offences rose by 79% to 118.

Det Supt Bishop, head of the public protection department, said: “Sadly, research indicates that during major sporting events incidents of domestic abuse increase because people are drinking more.

“South Wales figures in fact reveal that alcohol featured in more than 80% of all arrests made relating to domestic incidents this time last year.
 
What terrible behaviour by england fans did you see on todays eventful journey craig? Throwing up in a plant pot? Scowling in the shop?
 
domestic violence goes up (quite a bit) during englun matches

especially when you lose :(
always someone else's fault :facepalm:

Domestic violence rises around major sporting events around the world and in various sports. There have been studies that have suggested that it rises after victories more than after defeats.

But then why would you want to get a little thing like knowledge get in the way of your witterings.

bbc said:
England has exited the football World Cup and once again failed to live up to expectations. But why do the English fool themselves, again and again, into believing they can win, and might they actually enjoy it?

and
bbc said:
BLAME A COLONIAL PAST?
Some believe the English feel entitled to win the World Cup - which derives from the entitlement of Empire.
But historian Linda Colley, who specialises on empire and nationalism, says too much is attributed to loss of the colonies.

"Surely the more crucial issues are that we invented soccer, so feel a proprietorial interest in it," says Colley, speaking to the BBC News website. "And secondly soccer is hyped and commercialised more here than in many other countries. The broader issue may well be uncertainty about collective identity."
pretty incisive!
