You don't see this in any other sport, at a cricket match you sit with the other side they don't use you as a punching bag. Look its 18 years ago I would like to think this sort of thing won't happen now. You not see fighting at Headingley last season then ? .

PortlandOwl Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Think that was the 2-2. If it was, Wolves fans had part of North Stand and there was loads of bother. What were they thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's OK then. If your different ethnic groups it fine. But if your opposing fans it's frowned on? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must have an inkling that the home fans may get a tad upset. Exactly been on many home ends and celebrated and had a slap and kept quiet and had to bite my lip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrysgame Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 TBH you should be able to sit where you want. However in the real world we all know you can't. Done it myself plenty of times when we couldn't get tickets and sometimes you got sussed out and lead to some difficulties, but usually if you keep your head down you are ok. The guy was a clown for celebrating, but the world is full of stupid people.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does happen thankfully very rarely We were at the Pakistan / Afghanistan World Cup game at Headingley and it's a few years since I've seen as much fighting at a sport event, let alone cricket, than on that day. There was literally an entire block on the Western Terrace at it. No mention of the scuffling on telly highlights that night though. Also, if anyone has been to the World Darts at Blackpool, you'll know the violent behaviour that goes on there, too. Tables, chairs and bodies flying about around you. Sometimes, for some people, the actual sport is a diversion and the real event is the punch up.
