The Constant Rabbit Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Hearing there was a fair bit of trouble before and after the game - plus the skirmish at full time. Only heard this in a text from a mate in Bristol. Hopefully it wasn't as bad as suggested. Anyone know anything about it? The BeIn camera's stayed away from the Atyeo after the game, but there were signs of trouble in the odd shot. Fact or a mate exaggerating. I hope this won't affect the club too much such as a fine?

Mad Cyril Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 It's true there was plenty of trouble. 11 guys put up a huge fight. Beat up a team costing £410 million. It's great to see 'trouble on show at the Gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastside Moonwalker Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 There was a bit of a fight by the side of the stadium near the players entrance, Little further down, seemed to be a drunk United fan in the home end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrongagain Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Trouble? All I saw was a few individuals robustly prevented from approaching the away fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Saw a ManU fan get punched on the nose when he alone was celebrating their goal and goading City fans in the Heineken area. Two blokes in their 40’s I would think. And not a steward in sight, Mark Kelly had to sort it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No steward top of stairs of S23/24. There was a plonker in my seat so I had to go to the front and ask the steward who couldn’t move as he’s “looking after his gate”. And then had to go back into the concourse and to the barriers to get someone. Not what you want 15mins before kick off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin Soldier Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 There was a good “toe to toe” on the pitch at the end. (One Man U fan ran on to the pitch at the end). Stewards saved him. But who really cares after that result last night! Channel 5 highlights are good if you have not seen it yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had over 1400 people working at AG last night, massive operation when the staff are mostly casual staff many working just a couple of days a week . People complain when there are to many stewards and complain if there are not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially a game when those who at STH and bought tickets late try and sit in their old seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UREDS_91 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 I thought the stewarding in the Standing sections we pretty much spot on yesterday. No trouble with standing where you want even though it was a "reserved" match. Usually criticise the stewards but yesterday was quite good from where I was.

Aggers71 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 A Utd fan ran on to pitch at the end when city fans went up to goad them. Ran straight past the stewards into the centre off the pitch punched one city fan then another putting him on the floor smacking him again on the floor before running off into the crowd.

redsince1994 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 From the top of the Lansdown got a good view at the end. A few Man U fans got past stewards and went for City fans closest on the pitch. Promptly got knocked on their arses and arrested. Nothing major and got what they deserved.

For those who had got an away ticket last night they must be huge diehard United fans. To get banned for kicking off after losing to us seems ridiculous.

JulieH Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 No trouble prematch or during. we are examining cctv for the disorder that occurred on the pitch between Man U fans and city fans at this stage.

Rugby tackled a City supporter around the centre circle, pinned City fan to the floor, jogged off in direction of the Dolman, got his phone out and tried to look inconspicuous walking off towards the Lansdown having travelled in a circle. I was watching him as I expected him to sucker punch someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching him as I expected him to sucker punch someone. Second that, was chatting to the bloke next to me and we definitely saw him, and he hit at least one person and then attempted to blend in and get out of the stadium. Seemed to me like he was wearing a navy blue top and he had either fair hair or was balding. Prat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
