    I have asked what the trust are planning in response the violence at Wembley on Sunday. They have advised me that the FA, FL and police are currently investigating and they will write to them as and when fans supply them with information. So please get in touch with them if you have any information to pass on.

    There are enough clear photos and CCTV already doing the rounds of the utter scrotes that took part, so I'd hope those three bodies are already out tracking them down, rather than waiting for us to put in a formal complaint. The picture of the two-hat throwing the broken seat for starters - only needs that putting on the front of their local rag and that's one of the cnuts going down.

    Should it be necessary to ask the Supporters Trust what they are doing? Surely this is the sort of thing they should have already been very vocal about and at the forefront of.

    I have to agree that such as the criminal investigation thats gonna take place and the publicity thats the incident has attracted im not sure the BFCST should need any involvement at this time. Let the authorities do what theyre paid to do.

    Couldn't see any of our fans running towards the Millwall families tbh.
    And just to add I think a letter of thanks to that Steward in top row who did am absolute sterling job keeping those hordes at bay while the women and children escaped.
    In fact I'd invite him and his family to a VIP day St the well.

    As I understand it there were thankfully no Barnsley fans injured in the incident when the Millwall fans ran at the Barnsley fans.
    So there is no one making a charge of assault against them. That begs the question of what could the Millwall ones be charged with.
    My guess it would be very difficult to bring a court case against any individuals.

    Public order offences. It isn't a requirement for someone to get injured. At least one of our fans was injured anyway. The guy who thumped the Millwall fan back and was then pushed over the seats. He's broken an arm and collarbone i think.

    If anyone was a victim of Millwall violence on Sunday please do get in touch with the Trust. We'll pass any evidence on. The Football Supporters Federation will support any Barnsley fans who were unjustly caught up in the trouble especially if they were arrested. Although I'm unaware of any arrests of Barnsley fans to be fair.
