    I’ve seen a video, 10-15 Wimbledon on 2-3 Charlton at the ticket barriers, one guy had 4-5 on him at one point and was taking a proper hiding.
    Where can this footage be found ?
    No idea, it was sent to me via WhatsApp

    On the way back to the station on Floyd Road one of our fans sang MK Dons and a couple of their fans completely lost it. The sad thing is one of them was in his 50s and trying to take our guys head off. It's pathetic 
    Yeah after  we were ground sharing at palace I’m sure we’d have loved oppo fans to sing shit about that .
    of course the reaction is way over the top and ridiculous but wtf did the div want a round of applause , goading knob end .

    all those old enough will remember back in the eighties plough Lane as one of the grounds we always looked hard at. with a few lads going in the home end and kicking off and us always letting a goal in cos our players were distracted and then our lads would be marched round in to the away end . 
    This was our fans going into the Wimbledon end in 1985. Photo taken by my dad
    I wasn’t there officer…. Honest 
    Me neither your honour

    40-15 would have been a better Wimbledon score
    Leave it, love.
    Apparently, the Wimbledon 40 were on the juice.

    What strange behaviour we exhibit don't we?

    Strangely, while stretched out on the operating table for an hour or so last Thursday under my plastic surgeon's scalpel, we had a conversation about this. To cut a long story short, he said he was currently reading an excellent book by David Lammy called Tribes which was essentially about tribalism in politics but he thought it applied equally to football fans and recommended a read. I might give it a try.

    If we’re going to sing songs that belong to other clubs’ rivals to wind that club up, I must insist we do it with our torch lights from our mobile phones on 
    One of the funniest things I noticed yesterday was,when the Upper Covered End started singing” What the fucking hell is that” I looked up and see loads of phone torches in the middle of that group being lowered or turned off as it was being sung…tickled me…😂😂

    Ha, I saw exactly the same. 

    One of my kids thinks it’s great and it genuinely tickles me how others get so riled about it because someone has decided it’s not cool.

    On a more positive note, my connection was full of hartlepool fans. Brilliant atmosphere when they got to St Pancras, hundreds of them and loads of singing. Even my little one said it was quality! Good lads...
    Who were they playing ? I can't find a fixture for them from yesterday

    They'll be in for a big surprise if they do!

    Hartlepool kicked off with QPR at Kings Cross. A QPR mate got caught up in it. All rather pathetic.

    Wow...really surprised at that. The Hartlepool lot I was stuck with at St Pancras were in a party mood, not a sniff of trouble at all, great atmosphere. Every club has its arseholes I guess.

    Yes . Let’s stop the kids having fun when they go to football. 
    If you’re embarrassed by what children do then it’s you who has the problem.  
    That’s not his only problem Beds!

    Clearly the sign of an atheist Marxist, shame on you.  ;)
    How woke am I if I’m an agnostic syndico-anarchist?

    Have always found AFC Wimbledon fans to be complete twats. Was sitting in block G of the West lower yesterday and there were some real knobbers in the lower tier of the Jimmy Seed.

    I walked out of the ground at that end and something was brewing, nothing actually happened before I reached the station and headed off towards Dartford though.

    The whole AFC bully thing started during their very early non-league days. I remember them coming badly unstuck in a Combined Counties cup semi final years ago. They played Coney Hall at Bromley and about 2000 Wimbledon turned up. About 100 or so we're trying to kick off behind the dugouts and started on some kids, no idea who the mob that piled into them were (Coney Hall used to get about 30-40 at home games) but Wimbledon got a proper hiding.

    Laughed my way back to the bus stop that evening.

    Never understood the dislike of Wimbledon, given our very similar circumstances.
    Saying that, yesterday's incident was a shame.

    Imagine their last away of the season and someone suggests going as an ultra/Holmesdale fanatic/Nigel tosser.

    Bloke would get a good hiding.

    An 18 year old lad jumped in front of a train at Stevenage so all trains at KC were delayed. The Hartlepool fans were getting more and more wound up and were being help in by police. Then there was a train load of QPR that got off the train and was goading them going out and it all kicked off. 

    This died down and then another train of more fans got off and it all kicked off. Police dogs, police arresting people left right and centre and being handy with the truncheons. 

    Once the trains were running again and the Hartlepool fans had left I walked by the police and they were all patting themselves on the back and were buzzing.
