bangkoksaint Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Just got back from the game and never in 36 years of following Saints have I been so ashamed of what I saw. Taking my 7 year old son I got caught right in the middle of what was clearly a pre-planned fight at the cricket club. To some extent some may describe it as minor but he wet himself and was terrified of what he saw. He didn't stop crying until we entered the ground. Who started it is neither here nor there but those involved should hang their heads in shame and in my view are a moronic element of our fan base that clearly have little or no intelligence.
Bucks Saint Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Sorry to hear that. Hope he was ok during the game, at least until we went behind. Sad day all around
shurlock Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Would be very surprised if there was a pew planned fight at the cricket club which is right next to the ground in full sight. Probably something more spontaneous: either way, hope your son is now OK.
Yorkshire Saint Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 I was parked at the cricket club, was going off big time after the game....could not get in car quick enough as not good with young family with me. Something happened at the road entrance to the cricket club too not sure what but very sad with so many kids about.
View From The Top Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Wondered what was going due to the amount of OB heading down that way as we walked back up. We normally park there as well so stroke of luck that we parked just up the road today.

Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum.
Yorkshire Saint Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 I'd be interested to know exactly what went off. Looked pretty serious but was dark so hard to tell
The Cat Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Burnley fans looking for it. Saints fans responded. So I heard from before the game. No idea about after, but saw the meatwagons tearing towards the ground as we walked pack to the pub.
The Cat Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum. Nothing like a sweeping generalisation eh?
Saint_clark Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 There's a specific group of Burnley fans i have seen at every game against them at St Marys trying to start something by the Alfred and on the bridge. I dunno if they're regulars or they just really hate Saints but it's the same guys every time.
Lighthouse Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Sadly it's still a small part of football. Get 20 or 30 000 people together and you will always get a few meat heads trying to prove their superiority by braining each other. Hopefully your son doesn't get put off going to games because of this.
Ludwig Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum. Apparently every club has its ignorant, ill-informed cretins too.
Claretforever Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Listen guys, all clubs have a small minority of wannabe hooligans. Burnley is not different, other than we have actually had reputation (70's, 80'd and probably even early 90's) for it. Regarding today I left on 90-92 mins, mainly to avoid to crowd n the pub, but Saints fans were already gathering(handfuls) at the Cricket Club then. Burnley fans were happy leaving the ground (there's a wire fences separating leaving Clarets fans parking in the Cricket Club (lots) and from what I've heard, it was tit for tat. Saints were chanting, not happy of course, and Clarets responded in kind. Naughty boys on both sides. Fighting down the Main Street (a Yorkshire street?) with Clarets ending up on top of Saints cars. It got a bit messy I'm told, Not seen anything like it for 12-14 years at Burnley. ***I've only got 3 posts this 24 hours on here****
Wiggles31 Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Council estate a little prejudice of me but they are usually inbred tbf.
Charlie Wayman Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum. Come off it wiggles that is massively out of order as well you know. Sound like you've got a problem or two of your own to sort out.

I would guess, you have called it spot on.
Dr Who? Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Walked right passed there after the game and never saw a thing!
Wiggles31 Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Think about what you are saying. Lot of detected sympathy for hooligans or are there a few 6 fingered SWF posters here these days.
sammysaint Posted 13 December, 2014 Posted 13 December, 2014 Apparently every club has its ignorant, ill-informed cretins too. THIS.
Bearsy Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Sounds like the cricket hooligans causing trouble again. Something really needs to be done about those c*nts. Same thing every winter, just cos their own dumb game is off-season they try and pick a fight with peace-loving football fans. F*cking middle-class scum.

whelk Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Wiggles you don't seem the brightest but assume you'd put yourself above 'council house scum'? Do you earn lots of money (in sales?) and live in a nice area?
hasper57saint Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum. You arrogant pillock.I was brought up in a council house.Eat your words or at least apologise.
adrian lord Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 My wife and I started off in a council estate in south east London. We bought the place after a few years and grafted our way up to a 8 bedroom Georgian Rectory. We're not all 6-fingered, genetically close, scum.
Ziggy Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Lot of detected sympathy for hooligans or are there a few 6 fingered SWF posters here these days. Just don't like your council estate comments. No sympathy for hooligans.
OldNick Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 I was not brought up in a council house,but know like in general society that 99% of those people are decent and hardworking people
Wiggles31 Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Cringing now on a sober reflection of the stupid 'council estate' comment last night. I'll blame it on the whisky. Didn't mean to offend anyone so sorry if I did.

simo Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 I was dragged up on a council estate and what i find cringeworthy is people getting upset at a silly comment , that's the sort of thing those pompous middle classes do !

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 I was not brought up in a council house,but know like in general society that 99% of those people are decent and hardworking people I wouldn't say 99% of people in general are decent and hardworking...

Your grandkids will be inbred from your kids nobbing the aristocracy.
Lighthouse Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 I don't think 'inbred' is something you can aim at people on council estates. If anything, that's something you would aim at the upper classes and royalty who generally marry into wealth and privilege and all seem to be distantly related to each other. If there is a stereotype associated with council estates it's probably people being mixed race, which is about as far from inbreeding as you can get.

Saint_clark Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 13 year old girl taken to hospital after a hit and run, a man arrested in his car in Cheshire on his way back down to Southampton. D*ckhead. Hope the girls OK.

I don't know what I would do if I had a 5 year old kid in the passenger seat and a yob was smashing the car to try and get in. Was this before the 13 year old was hurt or after, it is hard to work out. If it was. Enforce perhaps panic set in, either way it was pretty upsetting for both young kids
norwaysaint Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Pathetic. Sadly every club has it's inbred council estate scum. Wasn't that pathetic arsehole "bedroom general" who was arrested for organising fighting for saints fans a teacher or something? These dickheads come from all backgrounds.
Lets B Avenue Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 After the game, we turned right out of the ground and went straight on at the traffic lights into Yorkshire St. The incident occurred on the road to the right. As we reached the end of Yorkshire St. under the viaduct, where it meets the dual carriageway, we were cutting through a small car park, when there was shouting and a small, dark red coloured car, came straight through dozens of pedestrians, swerving right to avoid parked cars and almost ran over my friend. The bloke driving didn't seem to have a clue what he was doing and was fearing the worst as dozens of us were banging on his roof and windows. Someone then shouted that he had a kid in the back and we walked on. It seemed he had got his foot stuck under the accelerator or so we thought afterwards. I wonder if this was the same bloke, trying to get away after running over the girl. This happened minutes before we got soaked by that hailstorm. Truly a wonderful afternoon!

It was certainly a red car that was surrounded by 5/6 police cars on the M6.

View From The Top Posted 14 December, 2014 Posted 14 December, 2014 Is that true? I missed this story It's true that it was me, it's also true that I am a teacher, still. The rest is best described as pre-Euro's fiction.
