Don’t think it’s really appropriate to be discussing other issues regarding our support in this thread when there’s a lad critically ill in hospital. By all means discuss it elsewhere on here, but let’s keep this thread about him. Cheers.

Yes you are right Ric these things often digress a bit, I'm guilty of it too.
 
Hope the lads makes a full recovery, nobody should go to a football match and potentially not come home. As for the thugs, I'd jail them for a long time, its the only way they will learn.
 
So very sad. Just hoping and praying he is ok.

Been on my mind all day. Keep strong blue and pull through.
 
No doubt we have a dickhead element just like any other club but is anyone seriously comparing throwing plastic glasses of beer to what appears to be a totally unprovoked attack on a City fan who is in a critical condition? Last time I checked, a plastic pint pot of beer has never come close to causing that kind of damage to anyone. Try going to a gig where that kind of shit goes on far more than it did last night and sometimes it isn’t beer that’s getting launched.

Personally, I thought the mood in the away end last night turned for the worse when that Schalke fan threw a pint of beer at De Bruyne in the second half.

As much as I love my trips to Germany and never personally had an issue with Schalke fans - Christ, I had a right laugh with them a couple of years ago when myself and the other half were travelling from Munich to Salzburg and we ended up on a train full of Schalke fans who were off to their Europa League game in Salzburg that night - let’s also not forget that the last time we played them in 2008, a tram with some stragglers was attacked by their hooligans at a random station.

I actually think we’re one of the better behaved sets of fans when it comes to European away trips when you consider how much alcohol gets consumed. I didn’t see an ounce of trouble on Tuesday night in Düsseldorf - just hundreds and hundreds of blues partying well into the early hours.

Anyway, I really hope this guy pulls through. No-one should ever go to a football match and not come home.

And in some other countries (Greece and the Balkan countries) it’s happening every week, it’s the worst the main continent has ever seen. Team buses wrecked every big game in Greece. Clubhouses set on fire. Petrol bombs thrown at away ends.
