Thread: Away fans attacking the family stand

  1. #1

    Away fans attacking the family stand

    Yes it is a family stand but let's get honest, many of the Millers fans who position themselves adjacent to the away fans are not 'families'. They are hooligans looking for trouble.

    How many incidents need to happen before the club sorry it?


    Real families aren't going to come if there is a punch up every week.

    Yes, that's exactly what happened


    Other than families, I don't feel safe at the match anymore

    That exit strategy will eventually lead to a death or serious injury.

    The exit strategy is a joke and an accident waiting to happen.

    I sit down near away end and it’s always the same when teams bring a big following. We have a lot of numpties and it doesn’t take much to set them off.

    The stewards are useless although I do agree they shouldn’t have to deal with the morons.

    Is the lack of coppers down to finances?

    Maybe have to put fencing up it’s getting worse.

    Police don't act as stewards. Supposed to be back ups, agree stewards aren't up to it.

    Yes it’s generally idiots down that end but I had no choice in putting a family down there in one game, luckily there wasn’t any bother 😂

    I’m not arguing about the innocent ones that just get caught up in it and defend themselves.

    Maybe a better thick netting would be better but then again snowflakes would argue about that

    Me and the family were down there on Monday and saw it in all it's glory. 4 had never been to a game before including my wife, daughter and grandson and despite us having a great day it did not leave them with a good impression. Both sets of fans were as bad as each other including two Rotherham families going at each other over Tom Eaves.
