burton just wont go away

Quoted from ticker_1610

We travelled by car to Tamworth and was treated with the upmost courtesy by stewards and in and around the ground. The same at Crawley, Forest Green and Kidderminster!

The smaller teams further south do tend to be 'better' hosts to us. Kidderminster is a great ground with fantastic food.

It is our localish areas that treat us something out of the late 70's

Quoted from flash1

they do have a history of this aswell!

Christ Burton has seen some ugly scenes, must be something in the ale around there!

Quoted from flash1

[/b] and because of people like you making judgemental comments without knowing the facts about incidents and individuals,,we,,ll always have people jumping to the wrong conclusion!

oh dear,if you look at the overtones of his post,its suggests him and his mates need a police escort everywhere they go,why would this be then sherlock?  iv'e seen a train carriage after it has had town "fans" travel on it,when i pay for my train ticket the price is sky high,i wonder why?possibly to pay for repairs   for damage caused by idiots? they aren't even a proper firm are they,just a bunch of scruffy spotty chavs and a few  40+ beer bellied losers who won't grow up. im not being judgemental in  any way as you suggest,iv'e seen these idiots first hand and i know the individuals concerned,and they are all clowns,what part of this don't you understand?

Quoted from bladerunnner

just out of curiosity,what would have you done in these places if you didn't have a police escort? i would rather the police be employed catching the scum who mug old ladies and burgle houses instead they have to babysit immature no-marks like you all over england......great im so proud of you.

Why thank you Sir! I am proud that I have never took paet in football violence, I do need an escort because I am Royalty in this area don't you know!

Quoted Text

Bryant, 35, of Hawkins Grove, Grimsby, was seen encouraging others to invade the pitch, then pushing through stewards and was seen damaging hoardings.

Firstly, let me just say I in no way condone the scenes at Burton. However, the quote I've taken from that article seems both harsh, and out of kilter. Obviously I don't know the full facts of the incident, but for someone to get the same sentence for pushing through stewards, as someone who assaulted a police officer seems ridiculous!

Surely it depends on how he 'pushed through the stewards' and the behaviour he showed at the same time.

Also if he was encouraging people to enter the pitch then he may have been viewed as an orchestrator resulting in a larger sentence than the normal pitch encroachment.

Quoted from Madeleymariner

What everyone seems to forget with student loans is that while not being paid back they accrue interest and if someone does not get to the pay back threshhold for say 10 yrs after they graduate they could be paying it back for 20 yrs. Its alright the politicians coming up with these ideas, but they got there Uni ed for free and also had taxpayers money to spend on beer in the form of grants.  

True. The interest though 'is' fairly negligable. At least mine was, being exactly even with inflation. But yeah still all adds up. And also you have to consider that the price has gone up for a qualification which has decreased massively in worth since degrees are pretty much ten to the penny these days. And some of the people that hold degrees frankly fecking astonishes me and makes me think they're just giving the things away now.

Hardy anything happened at Burton. Bit of a pitch invasion and a bit of bravado.

Completely OTT reaction in my opinion considering the horrific circumstances. The Luton fans did a lot worse and as far as I know nothing happened to them.

My student loan expired when i reached a certain age, I did not have to pay tuition fees.
My degree is in a subject relevent to local industry, However there are a lot of airy fairy degrees in such things as media, film studies etc, just an excuse to keep the youth of today off the jobless figures.
It's all a con

maybe they should have claimed to be from the farming/huntining community
