How could they prove random people on trains have a connection to a specific football club? As for the original issue, we have a problem with male culture & violence that I rarely see when I go to continental Europe. I don’t know why that is the case, but truly pathetic. Trains have CCTV. If they wanted to, British Transport Police could publish their photographs in the local press . Edited April 16, 2022 by E.G.Red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I was thinking of the play off game when a team in the relegation place would play a two legged tie with team in promotion place from league below, to try and save their status. I think Sheff Utd did so on that occassion - they stopped that format as there was a lot of trouble at the various matches I believe.

Also in my experience it is these cretinous middle aged drunkards that cause most of the problems this country has. Our away end recently sums it up. After Swansea I actually reduced my intake massively out of fear of looking like or becoming one of these buffoons. I do feel sorry for the more mild mannered fans who travel 4 hours just to get these titcakes stood in front of them. We have an elderly travelling contingent and it baffles me that they keep coming after some of the things I’ve seen them put up with during games this season. I’m no snowflake but it really is quite bad at times. There’s a line. That is very odd because I have totally the opposite interaction with the youth on away days,unless they are holding each other’s todgers in a cubicle then I’m guessing they are getting coked right up which would explain their damn right awful behaviour (not defending the older thugs because they are just as bad) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several years ago, I was shopping In Sainsbury’s when my toddler daughter, just three or four years old, told me she absolutely had to go to the toilet - she was no longer wearing nappies. I tried initially to use the ladies toilets, but, unfortunately if perhaps understandably, I was told in no uncertain terms that I was not going to be allowed in - this was by the female clients, not security. I received the most awful comments and threats when I chose the men’s toilets, but persevered, only to receive exactly the same when we left the (filthy) cubicle, and was abused and spat at whilst I was helping my daughter to wash her hands, and this by men who were leaving the toilets without so much as a second glance at the wash basins. Very difficult to explain such behaviour to a young girl. What the hell leads someone to behave like that? Did they think it wasn’t your daughter or something?

This would not stop fans going "there own way" but would give fans a quick/safe away day trip Edited April 17, 2022 by gl2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon79 Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Personally think if you’re a p**ck when you’re 18, you’re probably going to be a p**ck when you’re 30 & so on. You’d like to think people learn as people get older, although you’d expect anyone at any age to know it’s not acceptable to smash up a train, get in peoples faces, swear & act intimidating, especially in front of families. But no doubt they will have their excuses, usually someone else’s fault. COYR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richwwtk Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Bunch of no-marks, whatever their age. Always have been, always will be. It doesn't matter how many books they write trying to make out they were in some way important. The only thing they did of any importance was to drag football through the mud and leave us with the 'sterilised' evironment we have now. They love to complain about 'modern football', but it is a direct consequence of their behaviour from the 60's through to the end of the 80's. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of our ‘lads’ on board noisy, well-lubricated and already ‘well up for it’. Mother with young child around 4 years of age in seats both clearly frightened by the numerous characters in close proximity. One of our lads then started a conversation with said child who immediately was put at ease. How it should be. 15 hours ago, MarcusX said: Yes definitely a good idea for a pissed up, noisy "lad" to go a talk to a 4 year old I'd say more often than not that would be even more intimidating Oh, I don't know.

Major Isewater Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 I saw this disgusting behaviour . I don’t know if it’s football related but I’m sure the red tops would find an angle. Joking apart , I abhor violence of any type but above all the stupidity of hurting someone just because they like a different team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was during the 2016 Euros in France. Very interesting, the Irish fans. I came across both Irish and Northern Irish fans in Paris and, by chance, some Northern Irish fans in Lyon. Almost without fail, they were in various states of drunkenness, laughing and, of course, singing, but most importantly, extremely good humoured. One would fall over and his mates would just laugh and take the mickey, but never a hint of any violence. The various French people I met during the tournament had nothing but praise (and amazement) at the combined Irish fans' behaviour. A shame that the English fans couldn't have left a similar impression. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but if on investigation they were found to have attended the match then the individuals could be liable to football banning orders in addition to any action taken by the rail authorites.
