NO, the fences were put there by the Thatcher goverment so croweds could be policed easyer,football fans were treated like animals so then behaved so, the goverment murderd the 96 freedom would have alowed them on the pitch for safety, that freedom was taken off them

Eccles Blue said:*rofl* I, my dear Cleavers, was alive in the 50s & 60s so I think I know what real 'trouble' is!! As a female pensioner I thank you for thinking I was not around then!! But you really do need to go to Specsavers and I just wish now that I had done what I saw other people doing and took some photos to prove to you that there WAS trouble along Ashton New Road!!! But all I wanted to do was get back to my car and get as far away as possible from the ground. As I said I go to watch a football match nothing more.

I wasn't having a dig at you though was I ? (Sorry if you thought I was)
I've no idea what you saw, as you left the other side of the stadium to me, and I've no idea when you saw this trouble. My gripe is with the 15 year olds who have watched the latest hooligan dvd, and think they're hard from behind a keyboard.
I know what I saw (nothing, despite staying to applaud out players off the pitch), and like you my only interest was getting to my car for the 3 hour journey home.
Keyboard warriors are 10 a penny was really my point, but I'm sorry if you got caught up with the mindless idiots that do still exist (in a very small minority).

I'm being honest now and I'm trying my hardest not to be dramatic.
Not wishing to take sides, but today was a throw back to MR(Claremont Road) and the 80's/90's. If it wsn't for GMP, numerous horses. batons charges, dogs, etc, it would have been a war zone today outside the away holding area.
I've never seen a mob that big at COMS. There were hundreds.
It's been many a year since I've seen City mass up like that and charge the police lines. And charge again, trying to get to United. You expect that from Millwall, Cardiff, Stoke etc, but not City. As I've stated above, if it wasn't for 'modern' day policing methods, then it would have been carnage today. The police van neraly went over. It didn't because the police eventually came piling in and began whacking everyone, forcing them back from the van.
TBH, I'm not surprised United stayed in the holding area. I'm not surprised the police kept them in either. For their own safety. Today was similar to the Stoke game away when we drew 4-4 and we both went down. City trying to get at United, just like Stoke tried to get at us, and United like us, staying behind the fence.
