I am hearing reports they were disturbances outside the ground on saturday . Anybody see anything Seemed to be ok from what i saw
I didn't see anything specific but I was parked behind the Man City pub just over the road from the ground and I ended up stuck in traffic for about half an hour while the coaches left. Once we got moving there was a lot of activity by the police, flashing blue lights trying desperately to get through the traffic in the direction of the ground. I thought at the time that something must have kicked off.
Probably just the usual posturing by a bunch of retarded knuckleheads in knock-off Stone Island who watched Green Street when their parents were out last week.
I came close to chucking two drunken pillocks out of the ground, but that was while the match was on. The stewards looked the part, but were the happy clappers of their profession.
Didn't see anything, all quite jovial after the match, we got on a bus going into the city , the City fans were suitably patronising 'well its been a day out for you anyway'
Only thing I saw was when getting back on Coach. 3 coppers were dragging a lad off one of the Courthouse coaches, couple of police horse charged in to clear the crowd.
only trouble i saw was at Sheffield train station, when the 9-34 train from leicester got in, about 50 swinging arms about and filth dog biting a few, saw a few with blood on shirt and but faces in a boozer before the game but nothing at the ground
I know 8 or 9 Man City fans got arrested at the ground as police viewed CCTV footage of them attacking a pub full of Barnsley fans in city centre mid afternoon
It would surprise me if there were a couple of little wannabes who had been slapped by grown ups in the Barnsley end. The behaviour of some was cringifying. That or they fell over seats because they'd got a bit too close to a beer tap earlier on. On the train back from Sheff, some sorts going "Coulda haddem, the wer theer fot tekking." Same *****, different generation.
The highlight for me was the train in. Red army squad took all the seat res tix out of two sets of table seats. 'We're Barnsley FC, we'll sit where we want'...30 seconds later, kicked out by a group of girls. Laughed out of the carriage
