Un article intitulé Football Banning Orders, Proportionality, and Public Order Policing, publié dans le numéro de juillet 2006 du Howard Journal of Criminal Justice,  évalue dans quelle mesure le contrôle du ‘hooliganisme’ dans le football se limite à contrôler les ‘hooligans’. 

The Howard Journal of Criminal Justice abstract of the article: 

This article provides a critical analysis of the UK legislation on football banning orders. The historical development of this legislation is outlined and concerns are raised about its impact upon civil liberties and human rights, particularly with respect to Section 14B of the Football (Disorder) Act 2000. The article then outlines a body of research on crowd psychology, public order policing and football ‘disorder’ that questions the determining role of the banning order in the reduction of English ‘hooliganism’ at international football tournaments. With regard to tests of proportionality the article concludes by raising important questions about the efficacy and justifiability of football banning orders as a long-term strategy for the management of football ‘hooliganism’.
