bradowl Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 2 minutes ago, Buxtongent said: The same thing happened to me in the seventies. This was the reason I stopped following Wednesday away.. a lot of the people following Wed.at that time were drunken thugs out for a 'good' wee wee p and a chance to cause arguments, possibly a scrap or two. These are not football supporters, just mindless hooligans. Anyone may criticise the Chairman, the Manager Player X or whatever. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but to fight with someone over it is unacceptable. Should this episode have occurred, and I see nothing to make me doubt it, the answer lays in the hands of the EFL. It may seem harsh, but CUT THE ALLOCATION BY HALF for every such incident - 4500 at Wigan becomes 2250 at the next away game, followed by a further reduction to 1125 after the next incident, ending in a Nil allocation. Harsh, I know, and bound to hurt many true Followers. If we find this unacceptable, cut out the cause of the trouble - ALE.. Close the gates at the away end 15 mns before the K.o. Or do as I did in the seventies - STOP GOING. Cutting allocation at clubs like Wigan ain't going to happen, these smaller clubs need the money our massive support generates to survive in this league.

vulva Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 And we need it as well, considering we get 5% of away ticket sales (or at least we used to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewsburyowl58 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Did any fan fighting get arrested , didn’t the police get involved , banning orders should be sufficient in the main . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
