Well, there was certainly plenty of the old Columbian marching powder around, in the away end.Quote:

It is bad enough that our club is heading in the wrong direction on the field after many years of relative success. During that time the reputation of our fans also reached new and well deserved heights. I’d like to maintain that whatever league we are in.
Apparently a Cardiff fan recorded those doing it then posted it on Twitter. There was a link on another football forum but the linked Tweet has now been deleted. I’d imagine incriminating copies were taken though.
Is that because we play so badly they need stimulation?Quote:

They walk among us. The mentally challenged individuals who did this, are about as welcome at our club, as is a dose of covid.
Football, with it’s long associated link to tribal behaviour, will always attract these type of people.
They possess a combination of low IQ, inability to handle the drugs they put into their bodies (alcohol, cocaine etc), low self respect, no respect for others, and no conception of what is right and wrong.
A dangerous mixture, that leads to incidents like this. Although other sports like boxing can suffer, it’s mainly football that attracts them. You only have to look at the cretins who threw the bottles on the pitch at Everton.
I was at Ashton gate on Saturday. Am i embarrassed ? Hell no. I went, and like the majority of other City fans, behaved myself.
The only remedy for football, is to try to identify these folk, and give them life time bans.
Unfortunately, society on the whole will always have to suffer these meat heads. It’s a part of life.
Before the weekend, there were stories about increased instances of fan misbehaviour at football games, are we seeing a reaction to two years of being unable to live life "normally" I wonder? Whatever the reason, football hooliganism did not go away and probably never will do and, as said in the post above, all you can do is try to make sure that those responsible are caught and banned from attending games in the future. The impression I got back in the eighties and nineties was that banning orders tended to be observed at City games, but I must admit that it wasn't a subject I knew a great deal about.
It’s a society problem not exclusive to football and not exclusive to City.Quote:

also found this.
:facepalm:
Bit harsh to have a pop at those who watched, not worth the bother of trying to stop it when you have idiots willing to do all that and feeling invincible in front of their mates. Not even just kids either. Feels like a lot of older idiots come out for this game as it's easier to do than Swansea. I've moaned constantly about why Swansea is a bubble when other derby games all over the UK aren't but things like this don't help.Quote:

Shows how difficult it is to self police though, you'd need a hell of a lot of people telling that lot to cut it out for it to have any effect, there must be 30+ in there, and not kids either by the looks of itQuote:

Who wants to have to spend a chunk of your weekend near people like that?
I know this sort of thing is rare but every match has these sort of idiots even if it’s a smaller number.
The whole anti social behaviour is part of football and creates atmosphere is absolute bollocks too. For some reason being in a football ground seems to make behaving like a **** completely legal.
I agree. And I don't mind laddy behaviour, and football is part of that, but that's just mindless idiocy.Quote:

Do find it funny how these idiots stitch themselves up. Firstly the guys smashing up the toilets have done the polices job , and incriminate themselves by filming it.
Then we've got a wannabe bristol hardman getting himself a reputation as a grass for sharing it.
Would be much easier for them all to give up the silly little games and act like normal human beings
We all certainly 'av 'em. Here's one of Harv's previous Tweets. It refers to a chant some of them apparently enjoy:Quote:

A police appeal has been launched after a group of away supporters vandalised stadium toilets during a derby match.
Few will get knocks on doors
