The same could happen to any bunch of away fans going to any match.
Wasn't it always, innocent til proven guilty?

Stopped them from going to the swamp? They should be thanked.

Funny isn't it that GMP can act before a crime has been committed but when some BinDipper burgles your house you won't get them round looking for dabs. Oh no, you will need a crime number sir for the insurance company! Servants of the people -just another fascist joke!

With their £50 tickets burning holes in their pockets.

The stoke in irlam werent your everyday fans trying to get to a match.

By all accounts the rags smashing up the Brittania means any blues going to stoke can expect a very rough ride off the o.b there.

Think boro away last year!

More often then not they get it right and they have admitted its wrong what they did. It's a fuckin hard job and those that slag them off, why don't you become a copper? Let me guess??.. Your mates probably wouldnt talk to you because you'd be a 'rozzer' or a 'pig'. So, you cant be bothered making a difference so stop your moaning.

i saw all this, and was accross the road as the police were trying to control them,

the article is BS, firstly irlam is widely out of the way for a coach full of stokes fans to 'stop off' for a beer, there were around 100 stoke fans.......they stopped off one hour before the game...irlam is about 20-30mins from old trafford??!

now i only know what i asked around but apparently they were getting roudy, and getting pushy with the locals, i heard the stoke fans had to hold one of their own back from causeing a fight......which is when the police were called.....


thats what i got told from asking around.....but they stopped off in a pub which is far from the motorway, and totally out of the way when goin to OT....everybody in irlam seemed to think they were their to cause trouble........

I didnt hang around n got off to the pub to watch the match.......so i only know what i was told!

Whatever happened to civil liberties and peoples right of movement you fascist bastard?
Just 'cos one happens to follow football doesn't mean one is hell-bent on chaos.

I was in Manchester coming back from the game against us and a small group of Stoke fans where taken off in vans at the corner of Dale Street going towards the Station, and they had done nothing that I could tell, other than walk towards the Railway Station. Therefore, I think it's fair to say the GMP took all the mouthing that Stoke, where doing seriously and made their point with them.
