The club have made a statement condemning fans behaviour on Saturday?
Anyone see or hear what happened?

It's an EFL statement that I assume they have asked all clubs to publish

NEWS: EFL Statement - Crowd Behaviour

Following multiple incidents of inappropriate and reckless crowd behaviour on Saturday the EFL will work with the relevant authorities and respective Clubs to ensure those responsible are held to account.

I read yesterday that there was a bit of a spat at the Stoke game Friday night, might just be the EFL trying a bit of a catch all statement across the leagues

On the news over the weekend they said the PL were speaking with the relevant authorities about what can be done regarding the increase in anti social behaviour and crowd trouble. The blame was laid squarely on cocaine use.

I would hope that the efl statement refers to their fans being pricks in the ground and not us. I didnt see anything on Saturday in the ground from our fans that would warrant the efl getting involved. Maybe they can review the ref and linesman’s performance while they’re at it too.

Also think the EFL might be referencing the 'Akinfenwa - sex offender' stuff that got the Wycombe/MK Dons game held up.

We had no bell-ends in our side on Saturday, although we do still often have our fair share. I've never had an issue with football violence tbh and in all my years of home and away, rarely got caught up in it either. You can often smell it coming and generally avoid it if you choose to or at least that was always true in the past.

The problem with the current generation of idiots (on both sides), seems to be that everyone is fair game. If they want to fight others who are up for it then I'm more than happy to let them get on with it, but some of the chavvy little cunts are now happy to engage with, young, old, women and those of us who are clearly there for no other reason than to have a beer and support our team.

They would be correct, that drug turns people into arseholes who feel they can take the world on, seen it coming a mile off.

That twat getting beyond the netting and very publically goading the opposition fans should have been grabbed by the cops and nicked which would likely have led to a ban the next one with similar ideas would think again.

Seems below the Premiership too, I know there are one or two arch rivalries but even with them there doesn’t seem to be too much actual aggro.

I think it’s an EFL wide release rather than aimed at our great support in particular. On the radio today it mentioned West Brom fans launching flares and chairs in their game versus Millwall on Saturday and Birmingham and Derby fans trading seats on Sunday.

Just file this one under shit banter. I doubt Derby fans will lose any sleep over it, and I imagine it made their late equaliser all the sweeter.

Bit like Sheff United at our place, we all got wound up for 10 minutes, but it didn't really mean anything. Very much a case of yeah, whatever.

No, not really. It can be used to excuse a lame tongue-in-cheek chant like this, but there is plenty where it is not a valid excuse. There is no equivalence between this and some of the behaviour we've witnessed recently.

It was on talk sport WBA fans threw seats and bottles on the pitch as a protest against their Manager.
Just think how this site would have exploded if City fans had of done it saying only our wankers would do that.

I think our away ends in the League One & Two seasons were a lot worse for dickhead behaviour than they have been this season. Seems a lot more families/shirters in the away ends now.

Depends who we play.
Sheff Utd was full of dickheads. Boro was more families. Wait until Derby!

Saturday was the most family friendly away end I've seen at Coventry in at least 10 years.

There was trouble. Two Coventry fans were attacked for no reason. A thread on the Boro forum about it.

Wales to serve weaker beer and shut bars at half-time in Six Nations games

The Welsh Rugby Union has moved to curb alcohol-related disorder by weakening the beer and ordering the bars to be closed during the second half of this year’s Six Nations matches
www.theguardian.com

Even the rugger buggers are concerned about fan behavior.
