No harm done, just think you should probably own it rather than coming up with a fairytale about edit facilities and such. I mean that in the nicest possible way so please take this comment as a friendly piece of advice. I've got a friend who says "pacific" instead of "specific" and also says "blanket bang" instead of "blanket ban" Pacific - Specific. My wife does that. Are you a friend of my wife hey Dastardly?? Perhaps I should bloody your nose sir. In front of kids inawl. Come on. I’m sure everyone will be able to condone it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not condone violence nor do I believe it was justifiable in this case BUT had all the City fans adhered to current legislation this would not have happened. I know that many City fans believe it is their right to stand at away games but it isn’t. Until legislation changes in my view games should be all seated and managed thus by clubs. Think the relevant thing is if the offender hadn’t done what he did this wouldn’t have happened.!! irrelevant of seating or standing it is the actions of one person that has caused this not the law on all seater stadiums etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 The standing/sitting at away games debate will always be there. If it is sold out why not just go to your seat, as it just messes everything and everyone around with the "i'm gonna stand wherever I want If it isn't sold out like the West Brom game why did the person who wanted to sit just move to a place to actually sit if everyone around was standing? I am assuming there were seats available due to it being POTD? Just no need of the whole situation really - what if the young 'un would have knocked out the bully? No doubt he would be getting a ban for something he didn't even start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berkshire Red Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Remember being at Preston away last season on a tuesday night as one of about 150 fans in the away end. Went and sat on my own about half way back so I could sit and enjoy the game with the understanding that if I wanted to stand I could move to the back with the other standing fans. I should reiterate that we had the entire away end if I remember correctly and were very sparsely populated. However, about 1 minute after kick off two guys decided to come and stand directly in front of me blocking my view. Being the only person sat in that entire row I moved along a few seats but couldn't believe the events really. Can see no reason for this happening other than to try to cause confrontation with myself. Sadly, even amongst likeminded fans there are a few that are out their looking for confrontation or seeming intent on making people stand against their own will "because it's an away game" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordofthebling Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Bristol City really do have some knuckle draggers, bullies in a group or people that can't handle their cider. I still remember a fight between city fans when we played stoke at Wembley. It's amazing how it plays on the mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse than that was a load of our pissed up day trippers singing loudly along to Delilah at the end of the game. They really didn`t get it.

Behave, I agree banning orders are handed out for very little at times. But this chap smacked one of his fellow supporters because he wouldn't sit down when everyone else was stood anyway. He'll quite rightly be charged with assault. I'd imagine he'll end up with a lengthy ban of anywhere between 3-6 years as well as banned for life by BCFC. Why would any of us want to watch City alongside someone like that. Throw the book at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
