FC United Thread

I know a few of em involved. One of them(who I won't name) is a belting lad I've known all my life,it's just that he dropped on his head when he was a kid and and chose red. Apparently a group of Workington fans were after trouble all day(said my best mate who was there) and then started singing Munich 58 songs. IF this is true then the Workington lot are in the wrong. But this is the story I'm getting from The beggars side. I'm sure if I spoke to a Workington fan I'd get a totally different story.

Evening All, found this thread by chance and felt obliged to reply. I was there on Saturday and in the bar when it kicked off. I wasn’t involved personally, my priority was getting my lad away from it.

At no point during the day were any Munich chants made. That is just pure fabrication.

We spent the first half in there main stand behind the goal at the opposite side to where their “miming” section is and the second half at the top of the grandstand no where near there fans; not exactly the action of fans looking for trouble.

After the game those on the supporters bus went into the bar for a pint which then grew into our fans singing and their fans singing back. It was all relatively peaceful until a couple of older FC fans who if I’m honest fitted the stereotype for ex hooligans started getting aggressive and some of our fans started giving verbals back.

At this point all hell broke loose and fists started flying. Idiots on both side ruined a cracking away day. One of the Reds fans was allegedly bitten whilst on the ground during the scuffle and there was also a hit and run attempt in the car park!!

The bus was kept back for over an hour whilst GMP’s finest reviewed the CCTV and one of the Reds fans was taken off the bus and presumably arrested. I’m not sure if any of the FC lot we’re also nicked too?

As you guys says they’re a weird lot. When they did sing, which wasn’t very often it was all about Man Utd and the 100 Reds fans outsang them all day!!

Cheers for the insight to what happened pal. Can't wait to get stuck into my mate. The lying Rag bastard! Like I said in my earlier post, there's always 2 sides to a story. Congratulations on beating the scrounging bastards and good luck in the future.
 
No worries pal. Scraps happen; be it at the footy or on a normal night out. It’s the fact they’re using Munich as an excuse to divert any blame and justify what happened that sticks in the throat.

Anyway; fuck em. That’s 6 points we’ve had off them this season and Saturday pretty much secured safety which was the aim back in August (promoted last season).

Good luck for the rest of your season too.
