Was this all before or after the match? I was there the whole time, and didn't notice any hooha at all, few police spotters going through the pub from time to time and a few people shouting and making a bit of a scene, but nothing really untoward. Was it the ample "barmaide" that you didn't bottle?
Feck me all this nonsense over a trifle ! In the old days (yes yawn.....) all they used to do to us nippers was stick us in the van and take us for a trip through the blackwall tunnel, drop us in a god forsaken part of East London without any money and tell us to walk home. There was none of this banning nonsense, just the chance of a good shoeing off pater when one arrived home at 2 in the morning!
We had a problem with one of the meathead stewards outside the entance. Told my son he couldn't get in because he was wearing a white hoodie, didn't explain himself at all and I ended up doing my nut at him. After threatening to get the police he relented and let him in. Jumped up bonehead twat!
I know people are turning this into a joke thread but are you not noticeing the bullying tactics of OB at football on a huge increase? i think it is unexceptable

All a load of nonsense and I felt sorry for you two because you're nowhere near the type to be involved in anything like that, but the police seemed determined to exercise their rights that New Labour so thoughtfully gave them. What leftbehind says is right, we've walked into this. The fact that two kids were dragged out of a pub and told to leave the area, thus missing the game, with no evidence against them whatsoever is appalling.
[cite]Posted By: windscreen[/cite]I don't comment on here much now, but this morning whilst sorting through photo's before moving house I came across some pics of Nathan as a baby, so seeing this post I just had to add my pennies worth Now it seems to me that Nathan is at times his own worst enemy, but as for the presumptions of him not having balls I really can't agree as you really need a large pair to come through what he did...and with a smile on your face.

[cite]Posted By: windscreen[/cite]Mr windscreen is doing good thank you. Sorry about the confusing post, but the poor lad had a very tough start in life and although he can be a pratt at times I really have some admiration for him.
I've known him for some time too, can't help but liking the guy despite his originality...

The police upped our threat level last season from family to potential risk or something. Thankfully we're still some way off the knuckledraggers level.
Don't know how guilty the lads who got taken out were, but the 'youth' in that corner didn't help themselves by drinking cans in the pub and annoying the staff. A lot of them clearly couldn't hold their ale. Quite a lot of Charlton in the pub were moaning about them and as soon as the incident happened it was obvious who was going to get blamed, right or wrong.
I must've missed all this...got to Coach & Horses at 7.25-7.30, necked a pint with me mate, then left for the ground. Outside a group of kids were being serached by OB.

Sorry Mr. Nathan sir.

Now I know who Nathan is! Lol!!!
OB seem to think Football fans are there right to do as they please.
Mate has just been banned for 3 years, blame the brief as evidence was suspect to say the least.
I could post 1000's of videos of police on teh back foot or scared to take action.
When it comes to football they wade in heavy handed all the time.
Who was it thats got the three year ban mate?
You're right Fanny, I'm not having that! Letter to Orient straight away!
Count yourself lucky that your nerdy disguise kept them off your trail
Wondered why there was so many OB outside the pub
aint you ever heard of the prior posse
well ard set of hoolies
