trouble

[Lady Bracknell]

Their fans were positively OBSESSED by the "town full of faggots" theory. So obsessed, in fact, that a psychologist might well presume a deal of latent desire was being expressed!

Most of the mouthiest ones were about 12 and although they had all the rabbit, they hadn't worked out that they might get a response. So when a group of them asked my son "does your boyfriend know you're out?" and he replied "Yes, and I've given him your phone number in case he gets bored waiting for me", there was a stunned silence while they all gawped, gormlessly, at each other.

Driving my other son and the teaboy back to the station a small group of squeaking Little Swindonites attempted to rush the car (in fairness, a car full of people singing "One-nil to the Nancy Boys) while we were at a set of traffic lights. A futile gesture made all the funnier when a burly great bloke in a taxi behind us got out and told them to get back on the pavement. Which like good little children they did!

Driving through the backstreets to get back to the Magic Roundabout there were an awful lot of OB including dogs, vans and pointy sticks collecting up in a purposeful sort of way. Saw no actual trouble though.

Perhaps they should visit The Bulldog in St James street on Thursday

The pub that was trashed was the Litten Tree. About 30 Bton boys tried to take the pub during the second half.

 

[Rougvie]

We saw a few of there 'Top boys' trying pathetically to arrange something to kick off at the Magic Roundabout.

I think its naive to think there is going to be NO trouble, as its a gala day for these guys, and there is not a lot we can do or say on here that is going to stop that.

 

[empire]

yes thats the one litten tree bha yobs wrecked it throwing bottles and chairs,altough swindon was just as bad,hope it wont be in press as we can do with out this

i saw this mentioned on the swindon site - i take it this is a brighton fans pub?

 

[Brighton till i die]

did it kick off quite a lot then or just hand bags?

i havent seen our fans scrapping for years.

 

[London Irish]

Well, shame about our hoolies doing what they do best, making lives difficult for the rest of us, but the atmosphere I saw was great, even after the game. I spoke to some Swindon fans afterwards on the walk back to the station and they were a bit too gobsmacked to be in any way thinking of smacking gobs.

 

[isabellas father]

heard our yobs wrecked a pub in town,loads of lads without tickets.bet they wont be showing their faces if we get to cardiff.tought the atmosphere b 4 game in boozers and outside ground ace

They were on the 1825 back to paddington pissed out of their heads, going on and on about it all going off at the Litten tree. About 18 of them all wearing Stone Island gear and baseball hats.
Listened to them for about half an hour then moved carriage as one of them started pouring cider down his front. They seemed to be very keen on going to Cardiff for the Saturday night ,to hopefully wait for the Palace after their game. Said they were going to meet up with the Littlehampton boys so as to be mob handed in Cardiff

Total mindless dickheads obsessed with their own self importance. Give our club a bad name.

 

[Napper]

yeah was pretty bad. went on for long time.

 

[swindonseagull]

No reports of any trouble in the local press in fact only 4 arrests all afternoon.. The Litten tree had NO damage this morning so the "trouble" might have been a figment of someones over active imagination.. If I hear of the trouble I will post it.

 

[East Preston Gull]

Bad and good losers

Thank-you to the thick orange bib for sending me and mate down past the town end.

Thank-you to the dumb morons who surrounded us and called us faggot's.

Thank-you for the ripped retro shirt and neck scratch.

Thank-you for the punch to the side of the head.

Thank-you to the carrott crunching copper who said "well you should have stayed up the stratton end"

But a big thank-you to the 3 swindon guys who got us out of the hords of in-breds.

Mixed day for me but at least we won and i managed to get at least one punch in before the onslaught.....(not big and not clever i know but sometimes you just have to defend yourself)

p.s epgull does not condone violence of any sort at any ground at any time.....you burberry wearing in-breds.

 

[Napper]

not a figment as was in there and unfortunately saw it first hand, most damage was smashed glasses on floors etc. Pub shut as soon as football finished I'd imagine to tidy up.

 

[Titanic]

A few smashed glasses! WOW !!

 

[The Wookiee]

What actually happened?

Did BHA yobs attack the pub or was it Swindons boys that attacked Brighton fans?

 

[Napper]

it was after about 60 mins the pub was attacked by 30 odd brighton, glasses chairs , usual crap. few punch ups. all at one end of pub near doors. went on for a while. we scored shortly after anyway.just saying what i saw.

 

[fink]

Great day - no probs - started at The Bulldog - after the game was separated from my mates, got lost, wandered all around the ground in the area opposite The Bulldog - no trouble at all, not even any dodgy stares, eventually found The Bulldaog after ½ hours wandering - via The Magic Roundabout without even a cross word anywhere.

 

[Citrus]

Lennon said some fatty was following me out the ground but i was blissfully unaware of him. He siad something and Lennon told the police that 'some fatty was picking on him'.

Marvellous.

I saw that! lol

 

[Biscuit]

Most of the mouthiest ones were about 12 and although they had all the rabbit, they hadn't worked out that they might get a response.

lol, Nedd Ludd, Yorkie and myself were walking up towards the Grove and some little prick on a Learner moped shock his head at us in a disapproving way...we both pointed out a few home truths and he looked pretty scared! marvellous!

Also, had a couple of wankers shout some stuff, Im not botherd. Im sure if we had just THROWN A PLAY OFF FINIAL CHANCE out the window I might be annoyed. Nedd and myself also saw to trevs on bikes which gave stick, but looked positivly terrified when we approached them, and in our wisdom said...."ermmm 1-0 dick head.."

Another please

 

[disgruntled h blocker]

Some mid-40s bloke with tatoos shouted to me 'you wanna a fu*king fight, coz I'm up for one!' when walking out past the County Ground Hotel (or whatever it's called).

Strange, I was wearing colours, but being 6'5" and 'big', guess he thought I was up for it....

...Or he watched 'The Football Factory' the night before and wanted to give it a try himself. Hopefully, he didn't have his mate 'stanley' with him!
