Title: Rochdale fans.........we’re not too popular! PART 2
Post by: Wiltshire Exile on October 14, 2018, 12:13:57 pm
Anybody witness these altercations after the match? The abuse towards our fans in this thread, https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/members/rochdale/forum/230844/fighting-on-the-sandy-lane-pavement/#41 (https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/members/rochdale/forum/230844/fighting-on-the-sandy-lane-pavement/#41), just seems to get a whole lot worse!

Mind you, one or two have expressed a positive opinion following their trips to the KM

A group of 10 year olds shouted "you're Donny, f**k off you're not welcome here" to a bloke who went into the chip shop after the match, should we all have a massive bitch and whine about that?

To be fair, throwing smoke bombs at an away end is surely considered out of order..   and where the heck did the stone island/fake Burberry brigade come from..  ive never seen them at the KMS?  It's like a bad version of green street..  🤣🤣

As a side note tho, as we were walking back to the car in the exact opposite way the home fans were walking, my lads shirt properly covered up. Every 2nd chavvy Rochdale teen seemed intent on finding a rovers fan for a fight... 
I like how describe us as a vile club..  doesnt drfc win community club of the year now and again...

But they didn't throw them AT the away end, or even in the general direction. Kitsons regardless and throwing them onto the pitch is no better but the bombs barely made it beyond the touchline, they're making it sound as if they were shelling them right onto the terrace.

1 did get thrown at the home end but it hit the roof and landed next to the cameraman/woman, but apart from that they seemed pretty well behaved

Some of their comments do seem bitter, however I'd be just as pissed off if someone threw a flare into our section of fans. Needless and could have had very serious ramifications.

Round up the rats..black bag em , dump em in the Don...visit upon there families the need to keep pets on leashes,      Jobsaguddun...

What will these infestations bring to society....very little indeed...

Anyone who looks for trouble at any football club is a future intern of the penal system just waiting to happen....

The club and police should nip this in the bud before we get a bad rep, and the true fan gets caught up in it.....Just my opinion,

Exactly this needs sorting now before someone get seriously hurt, maimed or even killed.
To call them low life is far too complimentary.

Why did the stewards and police let them congregate and stand near the home fans? Anyone could see that it was a mixed area of women, children and ordinary adults on the home terrace behind the goal.
The river island fakers were snorting openly from the sink porcelain 10 minutes after the kick off so they were fired up and ready for action.
I questioned some of them that were leaving with still 10 minutes of normal time to be played, they returned because the exit gates were blocked so that they couldn’t go round to the home end.
The police/stewards should have made them find a seat, there was plenty of them to find, they should never been allowed to stand at the front.

I think they have bit to much to drink and don't realise the implications, let's remember there young and to call them low life and such is going to far, yes they shouldn't have smoke bombs but let's not make it like they have caused major disorder

They were on a day out to find trouble, the Rochdale fans had put on their  forum that the Donny were expected to bring around 30 to meet up for confrontation, social media has ways of contact.
I saw the same faces at Oldham that were hell bent on trouble and they had a skirmish outside Boundary Park too.

Depends on how old they are though. Under 16 and they can't search you. Over 16, they'll probably just pass them to a younger mate and get em in that way.

The stewards aren't allowed to search you if you're under 16... been told that at various grounds all over the country.

Awwwww, bless !
a liberalist,  who must walk around blinkered to the erosion of our societal structure.... these Dicks are like feral packs, they erode and pi## on everything that’s good...
they have begun a journey not of discovery, but of destruction.....and because of there nature they will struggle to conform to the norms that we call “ civilised behaviour” unless they are forced to face the damage they cause....
They are not wanted...nor needed....

Just my opinion of course

Of course it’s major disorder. They are ruining it for all genuine football fans.

Yes smoke bombs were thrown but that could well have been 1 person out of the group, what else did they do, as far as we no there were no assaults or punches thrown, so tell me what the major disorder was?

To be fair, it is the 16 years old self called “hard lads” who are getting the comments from the Rochdale fans and that in turn makes all Rovers fans out to be horrible fans.
We know who these kids are and as a group they are potentially trouble.
By themselves they probably wouldn’t say boo to a goose.
As a club we shouldn’t want them or tolerate them.

So that’s ok then is it, as long as no punches were thrown and no assaults.
Sorry we are on different planets then if that is what you think.
The behaviour of this minority group is totally anti social, completely provocative to all those decent people who are trying to watch and support their team. They are also a shameful example to all youngsters who attend football matches with parents and grandparents.
It’s not acceptable and we don’t want them an where near our football club.

Can they be made.aware to the club, I'm.embarrassed to be associated with such morons.   When a group have gone to the game solely to hurl.abuse at the opposition fans with no regard to the actual game, it's beyond me...  but because of their actions, myself and my lad had to endure a walk of suspense getting safely back to the car..

Bans don’t work if they want to get in a match they will and if someone wants to get a smoke bomb or flare in they will.

Yes if the police see them and if they know they are banned then I’m sure they would get them out of the ground and to the nearest cell, but that’s a lot of ifs.

Unfortunately the world is far too p.c, I’m not asking for public hanging but letting the police and courts use the full extent of the law would be a start

I think you are missing the point completely..It isn’t the act of setting off a flair that is the main problem....it’s the intent...

These GANGS are not there to watch the football nor marvel at the occasional passages of skill...

They are there to INTIMIDATE, THREATEN, ANTAGONISE, and physically hurt another person....they care little for consequence and are predominantly “ anti-social” and anti-establishment,

My fear is that NICE groups of friends do travel to away games to enjoy the atmosphere and the buzz, without wanting to fight...
And these are the ones that could be targeted by opposing yobs has easy targets for a beating....

I care little if our rats get kicked to pieces....I just don’t want to read about innocent kids getting a beating or even killed because of the few that could potentially “ tar” the rest ....

exactly...  walking back to the car was a nitemare.... as we were going directly into the stream of oncoming dale fans, many who were on the warpath, my lad had a simple red tracksuit top on, i was dreading any questions sent our way... we just stayed very close to a couple of bobbies walking our way..  Till then ran off chasing the riot van that had just hurtled by!!

I was taking about banning orders are pointless as they are easy to get around. And about being to p.c I’m talking about the complete opposite of your statement, the consequences for knocking some one out are far to easy going just like bring flares and smoke bombs to a football match, hence police and courts need more power or be able to use it.

Personally I would love the 3 strikes rule from the US

Took the Mrs to the game and she was on edge the whole way through because of that lot. Practically begged me to stay behind after the game until they had gone.  They had their back to the match the whole game and p!**€d about amongst themselves whilst hurling abuse at opposition fans. I have always wanted more people to come and support our team but if thats what were getting at games then I would rather my own  :turd: than be associated with that lot. Utter morons.
