Considering how small their crowds have dropped to, I'm sure they'd prefer to sell tickets to us.

It’s on Facebook now it looks like he kicked the Derby fan and it seemed more of a push over the chairs where as the previous Lone Ranger definitely threw punches. It looked like the police were letting him burn himself out and doing his work before picking him off.

Today I saw 3 Derby fans ejected and 1 city .

There were alot of bottles being thrown into the away end .

The answer for me is to reduce away capacity to 3 k maximum and then we are further apart

That's not the answer. Every other football ground across the country has smaller segregation than us.

Realistically, there were 4k Derby fans and not one got through the line.

I hope not - we need the money. Away fans generally help the atmosphere too (even if today it was crap).

There was a scrap in the North stand too, kids being taken out crying. Fucking scumbags in both sets of fans.

Saw that as well, think it was between Cov fans. Some kids there terrified, it was fucking embarrassing the way they behaved.

Tomorrow the biggest game in English football,one of the fiercest rivalries, will take place between United and Liverpool and there will be about 4 columns of seats segregation.

Fuck knows why two blocks at the CBS isn't enough?

They didn't really try. The only lad who really tried on either side got through. Fairplay to him but I think they might throw the book at him.

The funnelling of fans with those absolutely ridiculous fences to keep us apart from away fans, is only effective if the stupid pricks managing crowd safety don’t let the away fans just walk round the back of the fences on the road and then charge the home fans.

It was absolutely pathetic crowd control of the away fans to just let them out to meet us head on, charging an overwhelmed police line and throwing missiles whilst Cov stewards hid in the fenced off area, and disgracefully tried to get the Police onto us as we tried to take a fence panel out to get away from the trouble.
Total disgrace.

Apparently the police released him without charge according to someone related to him. I’m sure the club will ban him though.

Then fair game.

Don't like our fans fighting each other, but we all know we have our share of knob heads.

Definitely gonna get a ban.

Even defending yourself near the ground can result in a ban, so to go over to their fans will definitely be a ban.

It just would have been better for the kids sitting right by them, if they’d taken it downstairs, then they could feel free to knock each other out

In fairness, the 10+ pints sunk before the game may be more staged out over the day.

Or become 14 pints by 5pm…. For the contingent likely to cause trouble, let’s be honest.

Was only saying before the game if we ever get to the premier league for big games we will need to have less segregation as it's wasted money!! I blame the police for not getting into position anywhere near quick enough. Liverpool vs Utd they will be in place for the whole game.

It's a wider point but stewards in my experiance are poorly paid and poorly trained members of the public who operate on behalf of some private security company. While they deliver a service that is compliant with legislation it is not very effective but is very profitable for their bosses.

It’s a bit different for us though because At united it’s impossible to get tickets so people who want to turn up and have a scrap can’t get a ticket whereas at our games (some) people who want a scrap (saying this as a sth in block 15 myself) just buy a ticket elsewhere and go to block 14 looking for trouble. Just need better stewarding imo

Cynically I presumed they wanted to let him incriminate himself so they could throw the book and make an example.

Yeah,I would have thought the same but maybe not if they let him go. I'm sure it will be confirmed one way or another
