Cheers for that, Wingy.See there's a story in the CT relating to City's home game against Northampton in 2016.
There was a bloke who got glassed outside the ROAB club on Foleshill Rd.
who AFAIK was an innocent bystander who ended up having his face scarred.
Eight lads then chased the six Northampton fans down the road and apoears had a ramble.
They've all been sent down for affray from 8months down four for others .
Four of the NT lads are also doing time.
Point I want make Is grow up, this all came about because two 19 yr olds set it up through instagram.
Hey I get that I'm upset the lads have got time, I was inside when it happened.wingy you have no idea. cov lads there had no idea trouble was occurring . 1 lad sending messages on insta. thats it! rest looking after a fan glassed in the face. it was handbags and ive seen worse on a Saturday night. police are a disgrace to football fans
I'm coming up to 65 and still love a good scrap! Had three in the last year!Different laws re football related offences have a scrap on Wednesday in the Tesco car park might only get a caution if the City are at home you’ll get some bird. One of those involved was 63 ffs!

Like I say all because of a couple of stupid 19yr olds, Judge has been harsh.

I was standing outside the Horseshoes with a few other City fans that day, and having a drink and banter amongst ourselves. My mate said to me a group he never recognised stood nearby looking at us talking amongst themselves, and walked on down the road. Later on found out it was those Northampton lads who came for a fight. Must have looked at us blokes in our 50's and 60's and thought bloody hell their hooligans are knocking on a bit !Different laws re football related offences have a scrap on Wednesday in the Tesco car park might only get a caution if the City are at home you’ll get some bird.

Just had a quick look at guidelines, looks like the judge has gone over the top as he's considered it football related hope they have successful appeals.
sorry makes me angry. northampton fans came for trouble yet more cov fans get jail for looking after eachother. same years ago with pompey when they stormed the west terrace. more cov jailed than pompey after yet pompey caused the trouble. it’s a joke.
With your brothers mates by any chance ???I'm coming up to 65 and still love a good scrap! Had three in the last year!
Did the police not check any CCTV or anything to see what had happened?
If somebody goes running at somebody else swinging and the other defends themselves surely it's common sense.
My mate did go down after that game !my mate nearly got put down for ragging one of them who invaded the west end. Turned out the police tried to arrest him in town but the van was full so let him go. My mate's never gone looking for trouble in his life.
Luckily he got not guilty but others weren't so lucky.
Got caught up in the politics between the police and the club over the downgrading of the category of the game.
It doesn't work like that and the trouble is the less you're in trouble the less you know how it does work and how to play the game.
My mate did go down after that game !
Yes it's mostly based on CCTV evidenceDid the police not check any CCTV or anything to see what had happened?

Did many of the people sent down have any previous convictions?
The car park attendant who pushed somebody over swinging a glass about getting 5 months. Seems very extreme.
You remind me of my dad who's no longer with us. He sparked out a bloke many years younger than himself, when a game of darts got out of hand, and he was 70 !I'm coming up to 65 and still love a good scrap! Had three in the last year!
Is that the big fella from Leicestershire?He's a big unit and was well known to the OB, he trashed a few invading Pompey in the WT and could have got off but problem was he'd ran down from four blocks away to repel the invaders and that's what they nailed him on.

Thing is that Club has always been a good place for away fans to mingle with City fans .
Can't think why that kid suggested there aa it is mostly mature grown ups or families with kids. There were some NT inside at the time and the banter was good, no malice either way .
Stupid little runt.
