And don’t hold your breath, because rovers go to Lincoln soon in what will be an away sell out. Night game too. If there is no trouble before or after this game I will be amazed.
Seen this so many times over the years. Most of the wannabe hooligans are just that. Hide behind lines of cops while giving it the big un. Throw expletives across an area of segregation. Knowing full well they are safe.Truth is, the vast majority would run a mile if the chips were down. And shat the,selves whilst at it.I don’t condone any violence, unless it’s in defence. But the vast majority of these idiots have no class. No code. No honour. If they genuinely want a tear up, f**k off outside town away from the game and crack on. It’s not hard to arrange with social media. The fact they don’t tells you everything about them you need to know.
Leicester fans decided to throw chairs and tables at a Nottingham restaurant today with what appears to be kids and families in. Very bizarre.

And then the idiot fan who ran into the pitch and punched a Forrest player ,should go to prison for it and a lifetime ban

I hope he has a taste for porridge!This is the same Leicester who were crying their eyes out after a bit of abuse at the Den last time we played them.
And today we’ve had Leicester City fans trying to fight Forest players. Time an example needs to be set and away fans banned from travelling or making teams play in empty stadiumsCOYR
It’s a disgrace. Yet people are still campaigning for fans to be allowed to drink alcohol during the game in stadiums. That absolutely can not be allowed to take place - it would be an unmitigated disaster.

That absolutely can not be allowed to take place - it would be an unmitigated disaster.I can go to a game without needing a beer. Bit it would be nice to sit and have one watching the match.especially when the weather is nice early and late season.However, I’ve seen lads in boozers before a game. Power drinking. Knowing full well they will not be able to get a beer for two hours when they are in the ground. And yes, you can get a beer on the concourse sometimes. But you have to sup it in 15 mins or miss part of the game. So the whole culture around drinking and footy becomes compressed. Rushed. Get pissed on the train on the way there. Get in a boozer an hr before kick off and sup as much as you can as quick as you can.We are actually promoting an unhealthy attitude around beer and footy. Booze at the footy has become taboo. Young lads now see booze pre match as a challenge. It makes for a very toxic mix. I think a lot less booze would be consumed rapidly pre match if people knew they could get a beer and sit and enjoy the match with it.
When some of these lads are doing cocaine before a game, somehow I don't think it's about having a relaxing, convivial time.
To be fair, most (not all) of the pathetic rabble who act up at football matches are of a certain age. They are hardly likely to be buying coffee and bovril at the ground in the first place, let alone chucking it around. If beer was available though, this would change overnight. Besides, I really don't see why people are obsessed with drinking alcohol at the footy. I have no idea how some people can stand in the freezing cold drinking copious amounts of beer anyway. Hardly relaxing and convivial is it?
My 8 year old grandson had his unopened can of pop taken off him at the turnstiles at the last home game, what’s the difference in the velocity of a can or a bottle full of liquid?I was allowed in with a full litre stainless steel flask.Also, at the MK Dons ground, my 8 year old grandson had his Rovers flag on a stick, the steward inspected it and asked for approval from his supervisor because it’s not allowed to be over a metre long, I told him that it’s okay, it’s only a yard long, the guy didn’t have a clue how long a yard was.
