What about X and Facebook even the news ?

Seriously if a bunch of Brighton fans wrecked a pub causing the worst violence the bar staff have ever seen - it would be all over the internet
If you google it, there is a link………………………..to Dwayne’s post on here. Nothing else………

It seems rather odd that the Italian press have mentioned that a couple of our fans got stabbed but they haven't mentioned that a load of our fans trashed a pub. Does someone want to email the pub? 'If' our fans did trash it then it might be worth giving them some of the money as well to apologise for our fans behaviour?

There have been a couple of isolated incidents reported. The Argus didn't even manage to run a live feed of mat luzzing at the station on the return fixture! I was worried before the game that due to their (lack of) transport arrangements that someone was going to get stabbed in the bum (is it too soon to call it jackalbioned, although I'm not sure that works as a term?). For all my worrying beforehand, nothing happened and there was nothing for The Argus to report.
The worst that happened was Roma fans getting kicked out of the home end. I snitched one for his own safety as his lack of self awareness that swinging his Roma scarf around when they hit the back of the net had pissed off quite a few fans in the row behind him. Neither did I want to be in the middle of the row of seats if it did kick off, which I would've been.
I don't really care about away fans in the home end, aside from the fact it denies home fans like me tickets. Personally I couldn't trust myself to go in an away end as I'd find it difficult to sit on my hands. The guy I snitched had a Roma scarf on that everyone ignored until he jumped up swinging his scarf, then people in the row behind realised he wasn't going to sit on his hands. That;s what p**ed them off & they made it 'hold me back' clear that they were p**ed off. I'd say the Roma guy was early 20's the people in the row behind him would've eaten him for breakfast if Roma hit the back of the net again. I couldn't be arsed with the potential trouble so I snitched him, young kids in front of me, me with Jnr and 6 seats in between potential trouble. Far simpler to get a steward to remove him at half time or be well aware that it's going to kick off if Roma score before then. I go to see our team play, not to see a punch up and if that involves snitching on an away fan who can't sit on his hands and will end up getting a smack from others then so be it, I'm a snitch. 🤷‍♀️

TL;DR I'm a snitch and although we have arseholes in our fanbase, I find it odd that no one has mentioned the bar fight when everything is usually splashed on sm within 20 seconds. It's quicker to get traffic updates on here on match days than it is on The Argus.

I walked past Scholars on the day of the game and the day after (didn't go in) and it was functioning as normal. Absolutely heaving with Scots on the Friday.

I put it on another thread but apparently the day before the match scholars pub got smashed up by Brighton fans fighting each other. The bar maid said they'd never had trouble.like it from other fans .....
I went into that bar on the day of the match, and there didn't seem to be anything in there to remotely suggest that there had been any trouble in there the day before

They were also more than happy to allow Brighton fans in to drink on match day, which would have been unlikely if there had been trouble involving our supporters.

I hadn't even heard about this alleged incident until reading your post just now

Sounds like total bs to me.

Same sort of thing happened to me and my daughter with the West Ham home game , chanting and getting more and more animated with each goal then came the homophobic stuff that’s when I drew a line and “snitched” no issue before then but I could see them and some of us getting more aggressive and having jnr in tow I’m not risking one of them or us landing on her and me lamping someone and risk a losing my daughter to me getting nicked and b losing my season tickets

It's not. Someone behind the bar said it. Hardly likely to lie.

I haven't seen any press coverage or comment from the club on this case. Have I missed something?
The identity of the bringer of the information?

Coke isn't an excuse for violent behaviour. I've enjoyed it countless times and never once have I felt violent or aggressive. Its the person doing it that is the issue (like alcohol)
Precisely. And there is no time for fighting when the quality of one's own conversation has become so dazzling :wink:

It’s the combination of alcohol and Cocaine, as you say for certain individuals. Going by the police when discussing a rise in violence and aggression. These people become superman.

I think you have so many people on ignore now, it is like having a completely different version of NSC.

I have no clue what happened in this pub in Rome. It could have been Madonna's chimney sweep who dunnit as far as I know or care.

Meanwhile there has been no press coverage or statement from the club in respect of the court case reference the assault at the Marseille game.
