Was waiting for the old man by the middle entrance to the ground, by the Thatchers terrace and there must've been a solid 10 on 10 scrap going on. I obviously got out the way quickly as was weary of my old man getting inadvertently caught up in it.
Anyone take any videos?

I was having a fag before kick off and a load of them walked by shouting abuse. One guy was way too old to be carrying on like that.
When people moan at football fans I groan but then I see this pond life snd I understand.
Fair enough kids and young men doing it but these guys should be ashamed. I get it if they walked by giving it large and singing but these guys were nasty and made it clear they weren’t playing.
It would have been quite nice to step up and leather him in the temple with a spinning roundhouse if it wasn’t for the career, the mortgage, the children, the wife - you know, all those things which aren’t worth risking when you have a life. Luckily for these guys benefit scams, playing scratchcards and petty crime aren’t adversary impacted by a football related conviction.

Half time about 8 Coppers went running through the car park to get to the away end turnstiles. God knows what that was about.

Lucky I wasn’t there, the Judo moves I learnt when I was 6 would’ve caused them hell.

About 12 “Northern Old enough to know better Knuckle heads” piled into the East Stand seating area just before kick off and several sat in seats that were only empty because regular season tickets holders were not there yesterday. Old chap near us challenged one of them why was he sat in his grandson’s seat. The knuckle head asked is he here ?, the chap replied not today and the knuckle head said well no problem then!!! They were aggressive all through the first half and the old chap understandably looked and was afraid. They disappeared at half time, and I politely asked the steward why was away fans sat in season ticket holders seats? The steward showed no interest (steward 126) and walked off with a few other stewards. No one checks the passes any more and I predict that eventually we are going to see some serious trouble in the stands. If anyone knows club officials please have a word.

Aren't the stewards there for safety reasons though? I don't think they're paid enough to confront ancient knuckle heads, who are obviously looking to spark something off. If problems were brought to their attention, they should have asked for police assistance, although it sounds as though these bullies had cleared off by the time stewards were told. Sorry that the elderly chap had his afternoon spoilt by their loutish behaviour. Unfortunately, trouble in the grounds, or close vicinity does seem to be making a bit of a comeback since Covid.

Everyone in it for themselves. You show signs of caring about other people and you just get called a snowflake. Well if you call people snowflakes then you're gonna get cold hands.

Blimey, how on earth did they get into the East Stand? Usually check tickets to get into that part at the top of the stairs. UTG!

Exactly, they now barely look at the season tickets/paper tickets and even worse, which the louts had - mobile phones with ticket App. Just showing a worthless bar code. I understand what someone else said earlier about stewards not being paid enough etc and I agree, but they showed no interest when I asked that they tell their line manager and maybe step up security checking tickets - this is 2022 and we live a one heck of a mixed up backward world. It’s only this season that security and the manning of the stairs to the seating has gone to pot. I left to stand on the terraces for the final minutes and surprise surprise, not one single steward was in position on the steps, no where to been seen - so much for spectators safety - come on Wael sort it out before we have a serious situation put upon your head.
