I'm looking at the stats from 2014 and 2015 - only 1,873 football related violence for that period and only 16% of which involved violence. Now keep in mind that there's over 27M attendance to EPL matches per season - and those stats include the Championship leagues as well so not just the EPL.

Is that only counting things that happen at matches? Because I work next to two pubs and there's fighting and violence over football in both of them all the time, sometimes it even makes its way into my shop and we've had to have them removed many times, lol

It includes incidents anywhere. See below:
This includes football-specific offences (e.g. pitch incursion and throwing missiles inside a stadium) and a range of generic criminal offences committed in connection with a football match (such as arrests at any place within a period of 24 hours either side of a match).

You need to make complaints to the police, btw.
