Is that the team that bought themselves a trophy for coming second in the third tier ? Not sure they should be considered the arbiters of class.Stig said:
As it happens I agree with you, but I wonder how many of the Wendies would.se9addick said:
Uwe Rosler and Chris Powell are not in the same class leagueStig said:Should Chris Powell apologise as well?
FFS, what is wrong with some people? Why on earth shouldn't managers celebrate when they win? Some people seem to get so uptight about things like this, I seriously wonder why they go to football. It can't be good for their health.2 -
By the time Powell swung on the crossbar there was hardly a Wednesday fan in the ground.4

I don't think there were many Fleetwood fans in the north or west stand celebrating with him. Powell was passionately celebrating with the fans. Rosler was doing nothing but trying to incite the Charlton fans.Stig said:Should Chris Powell apologise as well?

Enough CCTV outside the ground/car park to identify the individuals involved.1

I am not trying to dig out Chris Powell here. I absolutely loved him swinging on the crossbar. I do know though that lots of Wednesday fans took exception to it, though. It seems to me that there are clear parallels: Lot's of football fans from all clubs are just too precious about what opposition managers do and say.5

Were you at the game ? Did you see what happened ? Two completely different scenariosStig said:I am not trying to did out Chris Powell here. I absolutely loved him swinging on the crossbar.

No. No. I'll take you word for it.se9addick said:

What did he actually do?
Bit of fist pumping or something like sticking two fingers up at the crowd/giving them them a wanker sign?0 - Sponsored links:

Arm raised victory salute in front of the covered end. Not offensive per se but pretty inflametry. Would have got a player in trouble if they had done a goal celebration like itWSS said:What did he actually do?

If there's one thing Germans should avoid doing, it's arm raised salutes.45 -
Yes, but I can still get through.Airman Brown said:
Isn't there a width restriction by the level crossing?AFKABartram said:What route did it go? Back to the station or past Royal Oak?
Can only think of a situation with teenagers, and to be honest can't imagine many being around by the time Fleetwood left

Sh*t to hear this, if true.
Getting silly against objects that can't even get silly back at you is just, well silly.
But aside from that, Fleetwood are a proper, little club we should have maximum respect for. They are no Palace or Millwall.
If their manager acted a bell, so what, that's football.
Really hope this was just completely exaggerated nonsense from the person that does their Twitter and not true34 -

Unless you have information the rest of us don't, you have no way of knowing that.cafcsinger said:
Ultimately this wouldn't have happened if Rosler hadn't acted as he did. Very childish and petty behaviour from a few of our fans neverthelessPowell Is Pleasant said:
Right... so your comment was totally irrelevant to the thread?cafcsinger said:
Not at all, just Rosler is a classless manager who should apologize.Powell Is Pleasant said:
Well this comment sticks out a bit! Are you justifying the attack?cafcsinger said:Rosler is a wanker.
Fair enough, this is Charlton Life.
And regardless, a gesture does not make violence acceptable, ethically or legally.3 -
So do we know if it was fans or team coach? (Not that attacking either can be justified )
Also have Fleetwood stated that it was attacked by Charlton or just that it was attacked?

As far as we know it didn't happen within the vicinity of the ground. At least not between The Valley itself, up Floyd Road and past the station. CCTV does not cover beyond that, but it didn't show anything up to that point.
Best guess is that something happened along Woolwich Road but Police said they weren't aware and so didn't have any information on it when asked.
I'm sure more info/extent of the incident will emerge in due course.20 -
Might not even have been Charlton fans then9

Can we blame Millwall...?18

Barking up the wrong tree, clearly a lot of palarse fans left their game early......Covered End said:5 -
Club going to respond on social media Olly as fans are putting 2+2 together and making 5 online? Not saying our fans are or are not responsible (I was home by this point) but seems irresponsible of Fleetwood Towns media team to put up what they did on Twitter giving impression happened very close to ground by our fans when clearly was further away as CCTV has apparantly shown.Ollywozere said:As far as we know it didn't happen within the vicinity of the ground.

And they said reported to police but police said to club no record of it. All very strange and something is amiss.0 -
A shameful incident. However it could be argued that if fleetwood can't handle a few london lads having a bit of fun they should yld go back to non league.
In future fleetwood should stick to what they are good at; Making cough sweets and being Blackpool without the glamour.
Flag me now.
