Maybe it's me but I don't see why those people should have to put up with constant f-ing. c-ing, t-ing, or songs about paedophiles when all they're doing is going home from a days shopping. It's a pity because what starts out as being quite funny becomes quite abusive the more people have to drink.
Swearing on football away trips. What next?[/quote]
Look, I accept everyone has a different perception of what makes a good away day and for some the football comes second to the drinking. That's not a problem, I've no issue with people drinking, I've been known to do it myself - frequently! Yesterday was unusual because normally we're on a Virgin train and they're "dry", they're Policed, there's first class carriages if you're willing to pay and it's not normally a four and a half hour trip. Lot's of people who were on those trains weren't on a "football trip", they were just going about their business and were subjected to constant foul language and abusive chants when there was no need for it. That's just my opinion that's all.
well put Astley and I agree with you. Good luck getting that across to some on here though..
