Chelsea fans throwing missiles from South Stand 3rd tier

[Jamshopbridge]

I was

Using the whole of the upper tiers has got to stop. I wasn’t there today, but my lad was in Block 117 and he said rather than being hit by missiles, they were spat on repeatedly instead. I’m not sure why the safety and comfort of City fans should play second fiddle to convenience in this fashion

I was in 117 today and the Chelsea fans on the front row directly behind us were throwing coins, pint pots and even celery right from kick off. On the 9th minute I walked to the front and complained to a steward about it, her response was "I'm sorry" and that was it! Fucking MCFC want fucking over this...I don't expect to go to a game at the stadium and be put in danger because of MCFC's failure to control the crowd. Whoever organised the security today should be sacked and the same applies to the people at the club who decide to put away fans above us. Its no surprise that we sing an offensive song when we are getting pelted with missiles all game.....and yes I heard the chant late on, and after what I've put up with today I don't give a shit about offensive chants, if MCFC had learnt anything from the dipper game its not to put away fans above us, if they'd learnt that lesson then we wouldn't be getting investigated for offensive chanting today.

This is going to be blown up and focussed on by media to distract from the events v Liverpool.

It shows the spitting, the throwing incident and another object thrown in this tweet

We’re at the opposite end of the ground, but saw some commotion in the second half so presumed things had been thrown from above, given the reaction. Why the club are still putting away fans directly above the home fans is beyond me. We didn’t use to do this, and it’s clearly causing problems.

I'm very disappointed with the Chelsea fans.

Im situated in 116 directly until the away fans throwing missiles and I didn't manage to intercept one item from a Harrods Xmas hamper.

Keep the riff raff away from us next time please City...

This is a matter which urgently needs addressing with the club, as they seem to be blind as to what's going on. 6000 plus Arsenal fans next (probably) who could possibly do the same again, if it happens for the third time then the club are just taking the piss

Arsenal will defo do the same if we go a few goals up. Bound to get a few dick heads in a 7k following, especially when they’ve been on the beer all day. Club needs to be proactive for this one

All these Journos tweeting so soon about Chelsea fans throwing things.

Did the same Journos tweet as quickly when the tramps threw the pint pot at the girl?

Genuine question by the way as i'm not on social media.

Netting is required and the front 2 rows must be empty, with police and stewards watching from stools on front of the balcony wall.

Surely the easiest way to protect our fans is to make sure the away fans are never above ours ever again.

I know it won't guarantee nothing gets thrown across etc, but it has to reduce the issues we've seen where our own fans are being attacked of late.

I agree but it seems the club doesn't
