    Coming away in the car, got caught up on Regent Street as Police tried to clear fans causing bother.

    Wish I'd have been in a position to video it. Is there anything more embarrassing than grown men trying to taunt Police by stretching their arms and shouting "Come on then", whilst moving forwards, then retreating because they're actually not as brave as they think they are?

    I was cringing for them.

    No idea. Just middle aged blokes gesturing alot. Guessing they were from Barnsley as they were coming from the Courthouse.

    Was this straight after the game? It was very quiet when I walked past so must have been before I got there. I thought the whole day was very tame actually, certainly wasn't their 'Flag Day' and I presumed the performance and weather put pay to any lingering hostilities. Strange to see all the police in the East Stand. Not seen that before.

    Whilst it is no excuse at least the young idiots are immature and naive whereas the middle aged 'green street' wannabe idiots are just embarrassing with absolutely no excuse whatsoever.

    Pointing, pushing and shoving Police, moving backwards and forwards, doing that come on thing with their arms outstretched as if it makes them stronger or something... towards the Police. (There may have been others behind the Police but I couldn't see, and I couldn't get onto Eldon Street). Just excruciatingly embarrassing to watch blokes my age (maybe a bit younger, but certainly old enough to know better), who presumably have wives and kids, behaving like they've been let out of a zoo. What is the point of it all?

    Some gentlemen from south London entered the establishment known as the courthouse.

    These gentlemen wanted to have a very physical discussion with the gentlemen in the courthouse mostly about the local custom being ****.

    The gentlemen from south London were encouraged to leave.

    The 13:06 Sheffield-Leeds slow train was interesting!

    Teenage Wednesday fans singing the 'Bubbles' song and enraging a 40-year-old Millwall fan.

    GET OFF AT THE NEXT STAYSHAN. I WILL FACKING BURY YOU.

    YOU'RE GOING HAWM WIV NAW TEEF YEW LITTOW CANT.

    And other such intelligent comments.

    No police on the train. Non-football fans scared to **** as Wednesday and Millwall ran up and down the carriages threatening each other.

    Only thing I saw today was on my way down car park at back of ponty somebody arguing with somebody else in their car. They then threw their flask at the car a couple of times.
